What is "one-shotted" in the context of drugs, specifically psychedelics? I.e., why does that term make the person first think of ayuhuasca?

In the case of drugs, people usually refer to someone being "one shotted" when they experience long term or permanent changes because they took too much, the wrong drug, or just weren't psychologically ready for it.

Thanks, that makes sense

My guess is they overhaul their life after a trip; realize they hate their job and go do something else.

Just a guess though

Sounds reasonable, I'll take it!
