I studied somewhat for around 25 years the relationship between the conscious and subconscious mind and specifically how the two can interact with mental, emotional and physical hallucinations.

I was able to learn bits of pertinent information from doctors over the years who prescribed anti-psychotics for schizo effective disorder.

The relationship between sleep states and waking states, and various methods scientists have used to activate both together.

On the one side there are the techniques to induce "lucid dreaming". Which is becoming conscious during REM sleep. That is where a conscious state happens to send that person into their dream in the promise to be able to control their dream and the conditions and environment of it. Then that individual is not able to interact or sense the actual physical environment their body is asleep in.

Then on the other side are hallucinagens that can activate what I believe to be the subconscious mind during the normal conscious day. In that way the may experience mental, emotional and/or physical hallucinations, which include thought, visual, audible, sensual hallucinations.

Hallucinogenic compounds induce such effects. Psilocybin (magic mushrooms), LSD (acid), MDMA (Molly), 2C type triptamine drugs as well as Marijuana, peyote as well as others.

Those drugs may activivate, alter the serotonin areas of the brain, which I understand are responsible for portions of REM sleeping states.

While some of the tribal traditions of different cultures have involved the use of psychedelics for their religious ceremonies, modern day psychedelics are used as recreational and party drugs.

I would like to raise awareness and advise caution regarding such drugs. They can be dangerous and are not necessary to my understanding. They can be dangerous in various ways. From physically dangerous to mentally and emotionally dangerous.

One of my concerns is the psychoactive nature of such drugs as they can induce schizo-effective like states with effects that include paranoia, psychosis, psychotic behaviors. Which may include "hearing voices" as described in the article below.

On a special note of what might be coined as the term "mind control" or "subject control" are the methods of witness credibility evasion by a person that has committed a crime(s) that other persons have become witness to. The purpose being legal evasion techniques.

I will then state it is in my understanding that it is a serious crime to commit witness tampering, coercion and other crimes related to witnesses. And potentially carries severe punishment by law and authorities.

The ellusive use of poisons against persons for any purpose also are serious crimes. We sometimes see those ideas presented in the public media, news and entertainment areas.

I consider some groups of criminals that have in occasion used techniques such as those. One are of course drug dealers whose crimes often range in diversity and include manslaughter by overdose of a drug addict and/or failure to obtain appropriate emergency medical help after an overdose has occurred.

Some drug dealers use drugs as an enslaving weapon that can allow them to commit other crimes agsinst a user. As most drugs are addictive.

I also was not aware of whether or not certain countries and/or their mental health and health authorities actual did blood work as well as other clinical work to identify if a person had been under drug control techniques when a mental health professional made an assessment and diagnosis of a patient as a psychotic disorder like schizophrenia or any other similar class disorder.

I hoped that countries and their authorities were acting carefully enough to spend the resources to ensure that a criminal or criminal group was not responsible for such crimes, ruling out that possibility before prescribing medication that might mask the real cause, while those responsible were not brought to justice.

Certain herbs and root extracts, especially when misused or taken in high doses, can induce psychiatric symptoms, including paranoia, anxiety, hallucinations, and psychosis. These are not typical "oriental root herbs" used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), but are plants with powerful psychoactive properties that can have severe side effects.

Certain substances, when misused or taken in high doses, can induce psychiatric symptoms, including paranoia, anxiety, hallucinations, and psychosis. These are not typical herbs used in traditional medicine, but are plants and extracts with powerful psychoactive properties that can have severe side effects.

Some substances with stimulant properties can cause psychiatric symptoms, including anxiety, agitation, and irritability. In severe cases, paranoid psychosis and vivid hallucinations can occur.

Other substances, while sometimes used for their effects on mood, have been linked to cases of mania and psychosis in some individuals, particularly those with a history of mood disorders. In these cases, symptoms have resolved after discontinuing the substance.

High dosages, especially when combined with other stimulants, can increase the risk of side effects such as insomnia, nervousness, and anxiety.
