According to a Norwegian study mentioned today in the Capital OTC, psychedelic drugs (LSD, magic mushrooms, etc.) do not affect a person’s mental health and cause less harm than alcohol. Surprisingly, they are not considered addictive like alcohol.  There are even suggestions that some of this illegal substances can help patients with PTSD and other similar disorders.

Like the recent watershed in marijuana attitudes and laws, we may find that other substances that are currently prohibited are looked at more closely for their potential benefits.
