Other psychoactive substance abuse with intoxication with perceptual disturbances
Psychoactive substance abuse is a growing problem in today's society. While many people are aware of the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse, other psychoactive substances may also lead to intoxication and perceptual disturbances. These substances include synthetic cannabinoids, hallucinogens, and dissociative drugs.
Synthetic cannabinoids are often marketed as "legal highs" or "herbal incense." However, these substances can be extremely dangerous and are often more potent than naturally occurring cannabinoids. Side effects of synthetic cannabinoid abuse include hallucinations, paranoia, and anxiety.
Hallucinogens such as LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, and peyote cactus can also lead to perceptual disturbances. These substances alter a person's thoughts, feelings, and perceptions, leading to vivid hallucinations and altered states of consciousness.
Dissociative drugs such as ketamine and PCP also have the potential to cause intoxication and perceptual disturbances. These substances can induce a state known as "dissociative anesthesia," where a person's mind and body feel disconnected.
