It’s advised to not seek psychedelics in those cases as they can introduce psychosis and exacerbate symptoms. It’s interesting actually because it may be helpful in us understanding and treating schizophrenia since it CAN introduce temporary psychotic like symptoms.

Highly recommend reading Michael Pollans “how to change your mind”. Regarding misconceptions about psychedelics, their root in our history, and how they can be used as medicine/treatment. Think some of the most notable include historical treatments of severe alcoholics back in the fifties. Mental health wise I view this as a major opportunity for many to have another tool when taking daily anti depressants may not be cutting it. Notably it’s being used in late state cancer patients to cope with concept of death with great success.

Also interesting are psychedelics history with Silicon Valley’s early days. See interview with pollan: https://m.timesofindia.com/home/sunday-times/all-that-matter...
