> But for a "one time" or "very small number of times".

Is this based on personal experience, clinical studies, something else?

Mostly that all addicts w/ physical damages i know started using heavily to cope to some pain (heartbreak / mourning / loss of proffessional direction).

Substances can help to realize stuff, but long term (1+year) regular using is never in my layman opinion

Are you basing your judgment only on those who develop addictions, rather than considering all people who use these substances, some of who do not develop addiction issues (developing addiction issues is not terribly common with psychedelics)?
