When abused individually, can Psilocybin and LSD cause longterm damage

Let's say an individual took LSD or mushrooms over 300 times over the course of 4 years. He was very stupid and reckless with his use and did large doses and didn't eat properly. Now let's say another individual took LSD or mushrooms for ten years, doing it 6 times a year with a 2 months wait, who doesn't eat properly but takes a variation of vitamins. In these scenarios how safe would you consider these individuals?
Now both of these drugs have proven to be safe but you can't just say that anything abuse won't affect you negatively. I've also heard that doing these substances for a long period of times can quite possibly affect you at an older age (or with any drug). I'm not here to say LSD or mushrooms is a bad thing because it isn't, both of these substances will leave a very important blue print in psychology as well as medical research. Whats worrying is being affected in the future (even if done properly with damage control 2nd scenario)

It depends on the persons mind. Honestly there are a handful of people that should never ever take a psychedelic because their imaginations are already there (schizophrenics and mental conditions similar.) It is hard to tell. With heavy repeated use the person shouldn't be surprised if their short term memory/long term memory is diminished because of use. I would say twice a year or something like that would be safe for most people. It depends on how strong your mind is. If you do it over 300 times it won't be a useful experience.

I feel like the use of psychedelics possibly led me into anxiety.

Yeah but if you doing it all the time....That is placing a bet with your mind. Look at Syd Barrett. I did a shitload of mushrooms in highschool and never went crazy though. I think it was the cough medicine that gave me anxiety problems but I just waited it out for a couple of years and that went away.

I mean take for example someone who does as many shrooms as they possibly can.
They won't keel over and die and no matter what happens due to digestion they will be sober in about ten hours
People act like they can cause brain damage or are poisonous. They don't typically more then anything weed could cause.
They were assumed to cause pancreatic but the netherlands would have figured that out by now.

Most people go through anxiety from 18-30
if you are doing drugs that could cause your brain to not develop right into your mid twenties and after
that's about it
drugs like weed, alcohol etc

I'm not talking about mushrooms though. I am talking about LSD. LSD is a amazing thing but Syd Barrett took so much he went to the other side and never came back. I have seen people who did acid and were never the same. It wasn't positive like they completely lost their marbles.

how did he go to the other side? wtf are you talking about? He got kicked out of his band and then all the people using him complained he wasn't showing up to work. Did he die insane and homeless? No he actually died of diabetes. First world problems...

He got kicked out of the band because when they would play he would just stand there and stare off into space... He went crazy even if that isn't known. All of the band members say this. They found him in a room and he was fucking fried and after that he would barely communicate with them at all. The road managers said he was completely gone. He came to a pink floyd rehearsal with his head and eyebrows shaved. It was known that he was taking a lot of LSD.

As a schizophrenic who has in the past taken mushrooms can I just say the psychedelic experience has nothing to do with schizophrenic cognition? It's easy to think they are similar if you don't have experience with it personally.

if you only did acid or shrooms a lot you'd most definitely be fine as long as you got sleep and ate decently.
But the thing is if you're tripping that irresponsibly where you need to ask this question you are also doing other shit and that combo will DEFINITELY give you emotional problems short and long term.
