“which reinforces the idea that simply knowing one is taking the psychedelic drug can produce a negative psychological reaction.”
How is this true (or how is this idea reinforced)? If the incidence of “bummers” was equal, sure. But it’s actually significantly less. What this does is reinforce the idea that real, non-LSD-using existence is more likely to produce a bummer.
Note: the last time I did LSD was in 1989, and it was awesome, and no, I’m not going to do it again.
