Psychoactive Drugs Are Different From All Other Drugs

Psychedelics are very useful for mitigating all sorts of suffering that's why people love them whether it's boredom physical pain emotional pain depression insomnia. They don't tend to cause any kind of addiction in fact they tend to treat addiction and at least the classical most common ones like LSD and psilocybin containing mushrooms are virtually impossible to fatally overdose on. There is a quite a large body of medical literature demonstrating that they have at the very least potential as treatments for depression OCD addiction etc so you know one of the things that makes psychedelics different is that instead of reducing suffering reliably they can actually increase suffering.
