Can the use of dmt increase the chance of getting schizophrenia? Cause i used to hear voices in my head and see shit when i was young although now im fine

Schizophrenia has a genetic component. It can lie dormant your entire life without you ever knowing about it, or it can go off randomly or due to very high stress. This is why a lot of people that display schizophrenia begin showing symptoms in their 20s.

For reasons we don't really understand, psychedelics can sometimes 'activate' this gene. However, it can't cause you to have schizophrenia. If you have a drug induced psychosis it will be functionally similar and probably treated the same way though

Schizophrenia is actually just being a shaman, but psychology needs it to be a disorder. However, if you go to Peru you'll find, what we would label deeply psychotic people, as productive respected members of their community. Serving as shamans, cooking ayahuasca, singing icaros.

Schizophrenia is a lie cooked up by the pharmaseutical business to earn money, as the medicine actually can't cure the symptoms, but only sedate the person by cutting off their dopamine supply.

schizophrenia is not psychosis, shamans were here long before that business. It is a societal problem, not mental.

There are shamans in Peru right now, holding big ceremonies at vacation retreats, driving tourists to the country, bringing money and prosperity to their society. While our guys are locked up, can't even jack off, they are too pussy to learn to use their powers, they will probably give money to the drug companies, because the meds actually doesn't do shit apart from sedating the fuck out of your brain by cutting off dopamine.

It is the embodiment of virgin beta science versus ALPHA CHAD SUPERSTITION

Thats a rather romanticized view of a disorder that has traditionally resulted in accusations of possession by evil spirits and resulted in ostracization, physical abuse, and death across multiple cultures across multiple eras. 

> b-b-but this one obscure native culture that doesn't even practice it's religion anymore ....

One of the irritating as fuck things you retards do is combine your dumbass hippy snake oil new-age bullshit with poorly researched/totally fabricated depictions of aboriginal culture to spout garbage excuses to take drugs. If you want to do drugs, just fuckin do drugs. Quit trying to act like your white suburban dropout ass is some sort of spiritual leader. You aren't some sort of divine spirit guide, you're just another loser who likes drugs.
