Hallucinogen use, unspecified with other specified hallucinogen-induced disorder
Hallucinogens are a class of drugs that can cause a range of psychological and physical effects. They are often used recreationally, but can also be used for spiritual or medicinal purposes. However, the improper use of hallucinogens can lead to a range of disorders, including unspecified hallucinogen-induced disorders.
Unspecified hallucinogen-induced disorders are a category of mental health disorders that are caused by the use of hallucinogens. These disorders are characterized by a range of symptoms, including hallucinations, delusions, and disordered thinking. They can also cause physical symptoms such as tremors, sweating, and nausea.
Other specified hallucinogen-induced disorders are also common among people who use hallucinogens. These disorders are characterized by specific symptoms that can be related to the use of a particular hallucinogen. For example, some people may experience flashbacks or other symptoms related to their use of LSD.
