According to a common belief many people stick to, psychedelic drugs damage the health of the user’s body and mind. The ‘acid casualty’ myth, which dates back to the 60s, still persists in society and claims that psychedelic drug use can trigger psychosis and other mental disorders.

However, it seems that more and more scientific studies are failing to find the connection between the use of psychedelics and mental health problems. Moreover, new research links their use to a reduced risk of psychological distress.
