According to my friend, psilocybin itself is therapeutic and allows introspection, provided it is done in a safe environment.

is your friend named SWIM? I concur though, i've personally helped a number of people experience psychedelics for the first time, though it definitely helps to have some benzos on hand for the outliers who are just incompatible with psychedelics.

Some people, for whatever reason, are just unable to separate themselves from the experience or accept what is happening without extreme stress. It's almost like classic psychedelics act more like disassociatives for them.

Indeed. Interestingly, psychedelics (mushrooms, LSD) work wonderfully for me, but cannabis is typically a bad experience (anxiety, nausea, no attention span, racing thoughts). Every brain is wired differently.
