Nurse here and thank you for clarifying things to the general audience because I don’t think regular people should be experimenting with their mental health and psychedelics based on Reddit. I fear more self diagnosed people are trying to DIY their mental health these days and it’s having negative effects on their outlook overall. People are using these studies to justify its use but blindly going about doing so in an uncontrolled setting and I don’t support that. Regardless, I know right off the bat that a bipolar diagnosed person has tendencies to abuse substances, how is this any different? Will they not have more potential to become obsessive with the hallucinogenic properties? Seems like a mixed bag
