And I think Chemda is so on the trip “ the government lied to us about all drugs!”, that it’s hard for her to see the downside.
Overdosed, they can harm. Really harm.
And as for “ I’m living my best life!”
I’m sure there are people out there who have found hardcore Jesus or some other extreme cult and say now it’s their best life.
That’s not enough evidence for me. People tend to defend their side to their death.
Chemda is right about psychedelics but Andrea and Keith weren't hearing her. These drugs are being studied for use in mental illness, etc. And Yes there can be bad effects as with any drug -- but they can be helpful and even lead to greater personal insights -- even if the user (or Chemda) cannot articulate those insights to the satisfaction of skeptics.
