My initial diagnosis Sig was schizophrenia following my first major manic episode 40 years ago. After Thorazine brought me down and I had a subsequent major depressive episode Manic Depression became the official diagnosis. I will never know for certain what role psychedelics played in my illness. I think not that much, not as much as amphetamine misuse would later cause mania. They say that recreational drugs are safer on lithium, but I'm too old now to test that theory.
