Someone near and dear to me is convinced since they are a 5 strip of acid, they easily deal with 30 Datura seeds. How do I explain this is an extremely bad idea

    have they ever taken datura before?

    just this bit from "Psychoactive use" portion of the wikipedia page is enough to put me off:

    In Pharmacology and Abuse of Cocaine, Amphetamines, Ecstasy and Related Designer Drugs, Freye asserts, "Few substances have received as many severely negative recreational experience reports as has Datura." The overwhelming majority of those who describe their use of Datura find their experiences extremely unpleasant ─ both mentally and often physically.

    plus it's a deliriant, aren't those supposed to be universally kind of a bad time??

    why do they want to take it?

        could she be persuaded by the argument that it would be disrespectful to take it without the guidance of an indigenous practitioner?
