Not what I was meaning to imply . .

Yes, what I was addressing was psychedelic usage w/o control under the claim
of pursuing the sacred. Sidenote: eating disorders and obsessive/compulsive
disorders, as well as anxiety disorders, often have a biological basis, not
merely a matter of self-control.
<<How well do their hallucinations serve them then? >
Many hallucinations come and many go. Some people may find meaning in them
others may pawn them off as mere drug induced figments of their imagination.
This all depends on the frreamework of the user and the situation for the
drug use..all are subjective and noone can tell you what your hallucinations
mean.>>
My point was, in a situation where someone has fried their head completely,
what have the trips that lead up to it done for the person? I did not mean
to imply that all hallucinations are pointless!
No offense taken on this end, rather happy to have you point out where I
wasn't plain in my ramble. Thanks!
