Towards the time I quit it, it did perpetuate horrendous anxiety at times and good times others...just became increasingly more and more onesided so I stopped. The after 'effects' of such bad trips would often leave me in a state or worse anxiety for many days before it faded...perhaps this never actually faded totally and led into a disorder itself, later in life. No idea really. Been reading studies recently linking adolescent substance abuse to psychiatric disorders as adults...particularly substance abuse in the teen years...an age of psychological developement and an age of experimentation for myself.
