I have bipolar and was very firmly warned off all hallucinogenic substances. Also is self-reporting reliable? The individuals believing it is helpful isn’t the same as objective analysis.

Bipolar person here. Wouldn't be surprised if those more motivated to self-report were more likely to be on the upswing than the down.

No, it isnt reliable. People with bipolar should avoid all drugs. The point psych meds is to stabilize mood. Shrooms do the exact opposite and definitely can trigger a manic episode.
