Uncomfortable physical effects: Difference between revisions

Those who experiment with or use psychoactive substances, especially [[hallucinogens]], should also be aware that some of the other effects that the substance may produce (such as [[anxiety]], [[paranoia]], [[disconnective effects|disconnectivity]] and [[delusions]]) may lead to a distorted perception of what is actually happening to them. While this risk can be partly mitigated by taking [[responsible drug use|harm reduction measures]] such as having a knowledgeable and trustworthy [[trip sitter]] to watch over and provide sober, third-party input, it should be remembered the potentially serious health consequences that may result from these effects can never be mitigated completely.
