<< Conscious breath control vary rarely leads to vomiting, ER visits, or

But can't the permanent psychosis be attributed more to the individual's
inability to "handle" what is perceived in the psychedelic experience than
the actual drug? I once knew a person (no the person is NOT myself here
people) that while on a recreational LSD trip believed that the Mario
Brothers were chasing after him. Obviously this is a hallucination brought
on by the drug....but the mind has to be prepared to deal with such
situations as manifested from our imaginations. If a person is ill-prepared
to deal with this situation a pychoses may result which centers itself on
being followed or chased. If the person can handle the fact that this is a
figment of his imagination and can handle the situation as such then no
problem should follow. It's FAKE..the drug made them come...use the drug to
make them LEAVE! If a person has a strong mind then nothing should sway them
otherwise? An already fragile state of minds is not going to strengthen by
altering states...its like adding fuel to a fire and givig it reason to break
completely...at least IMO.
