Psychedelics: Recreational Drugs or Intentional Medicines?
One of the most difficult biases for people in abstinence-based recovery to overcome can be that psychedelics have the potential to be much more than just recreational drugs. In some twelve-step meetings, it is reinforced that using any mood or mind altering substance is harmful, could lead back to substance use, and that their use may be judged as a "relapse." Most people in recovery that have used psychedelics did so for fun; not to help them to heal.
