THE EFFECTS OF MESCALINE USE
The drug mescaline can create emotional, cognitive and perceptual experiences that are different for different users and these depend on expectations, surroundings, dosage, drug history and personality. An extended psychotic condition (which is more or less the same like paranoid schizophrenia) is the only recognized long-term effect of mescaline use. It has been said that this happens to those who were sick (mentally) in the past.
