I think that there's some missing context that peyote is generally ceremonial with a long history of being part of indigenous religious traditions.

I did psychedelics recreationally once and it was one of the worst experiences of my life, but I think it made be a better person. But generally, I strongly disagree with recreational use of psychedelics. It's extremely dangerous to experiment with psychedelics without an understanding of what one is going in to. I don't think that clinical is the only other option here. There are a lot of places inbetween. But yeah, anyone talking about recreationally going out to do peyote without a whole lot of mental preparation and support is playing with something pretty powerful and probably won't have fun.
