    every person who claims that they made them more enlightened, empathetic or understanding in my experience was always a worse human being afterwards, because they behaved exactly like this redditor.

    The hard part of psychedelics is not the revelation, but taking that revelation back to the sober mind. Psychs just break down the barrier and give you a heavy boost. If you can’t carry it back then you’re just using them a substitute for cultivating that behavior you want.

      Yeah, they aren’t magic, they just make your brain all fucky for a bit. They’re a tool, not a cure-all.
