In general most psychoactive substances should only be tried once you are a stable person. While your brain and mindset is still in early development it may cause harm.

This is especially the case if you have a trauma hidden. I have seen people who got abused as a kid, and then in their early 20iers tried LSD, and absolutely weren't ready for their brain to suddenly bring up those memories.

OTOH: I'm going to large rave festivals often. There you see the ambulance cars mostly unused. If you go to Oktoberfest, there is constant activity and people getting hospitalized. And people look really fucked up, throwing up everywhere, etc. Overdosing alcohol is more common than with any other drug.
