Yes, in this case, it obviously was “killing his mind”.

I would love to know what these people actually feel like when they claim to experience these things.

Those same people will claim a heroic dose of mushrooms will prove to you that the supernatural exists or that your soul is seperare from your body and that your brain is just a reciever or whatever.

I tried it and I am not impressed.

Nothing about that experience made me doubt that it wasn’t generated by my brain.

Like do these people think dreams prove the existance of extradimensional beings because you can talk to people in your dreams?

Makes no sense to me
