Background: As classic psychedelics' therapeutic potential is studied and their popularity continues to rise, it is important to establish their relative risks and benefits. Previous surveys have tended to use convenience sampling on social media, select participants who have had either extremely positive or negative effects, and have not compared the risk/benefit profile of psychedelics to other substances.
Aims: To address these limitations, we gathered samples from an opt-in panel service using quota-based sampling to approximate demographics representing US Census data, did not pre-specify positive or negative experiences, and compared experiences with psychedelics to those with cannabis.

MIA elevates cytokine levels, triggering an inflammatory cascade, which may be detrimental to the developing nervous system. Similarly, cannabis use and exposure of the fetus to cannabinoids during pregnancy (PCE) may elicit neuroinflammation and lead to detrimental behavioral outcomes.
