Highly highly doubt this. Anyone who has spent significant time around people who have done alot of mushrooms knows that they have cognitive "peculiarities". The shift towards peace, love, and hippie-ish personality traits is clearly a neurogloical effect of mushrooms. Its clearly a deterministic effect that nearly everyone who has done them alot converges on.
EDIT:
I assert it is detrimental. There is a "mystic" "spiritual" shift as well, that I really dont think is grounded in reality. Just because current science cant measure these changes dont mean they dont happen.
I would also describe the effect as "loopy"
One last piece of information, I really dont believe anyone claiming these effects as purely positive have spent time around heavy mushroom users. My evidence is anecdotal, but spans years and tens of people. I was involved in a community that had alot of experience with this. The effects to me were clear, and I am skeptical of anyone, including researchers, who have not seen this first hand. I first hand witnessed the mental changes in friends who went down that path, and really dont think they were the same person at the end.
