I'm making this post in regards to a stigma, that not all that happens under the influence of a psychedelic experience is regarded as "Truth"
First you have to ask yourself, what does Truth mean to you.
Everything you see is The Truth, substance induced or not, because you saw it, felt it and it actually happened made it as real and as truthful as the definition of Real.
Your experience was impactful as it could ever be in the very moment, whether you believe it after the fact or not, you were confronted by the possibility of it to be real and true, and you may still be questioning/reflecting to this very day on certain aspects of your experience..
Now besides that point, our lives, what we know as real, physical existance and everything within is a mere vision of manifestation, an illusion; meaning none of it would exist without our awareness, we all stem from One Consciousness, which we all Manifest from, our very lives.
On Psychedelic experiences, there's a plethora of phenomena that can occur, as well as hallucinations such as seeing entities, aliens, and far beyond places of the minds eye. Some people don't and never will experience the same phenomena as other users, and some people can relate. Anything is possible when the veil is torn away.
In the end, you can try and try, plead and plead, that this, your experience was The Truth, that your vision deemed all end and all within is The One - unifying experience. To other people it doesn't matter what you experience, for your words can only penetrate the exterior being and logical mind, you can do your best to guide and wager minds into opening to this experience in hopes they find the same benefit as you.
But because your experience will only ever totally make sense to the one individual awareness who perceived it, that one unique perspective who had the experience, no one is better suited to make sense of the experience than you. And no one Can.
I take everything as pure truth when I trip, and from there I use my logical mind to decipher delusion, and my intuitive and spiritual self to decipher what can't be understood (mysticism, magic) and what can't be explained, from there I chose to keep an open mind but never closed.
There's a percentage of Psychedelic Users out there who perceive tripping as just that, a totally different form of reality, that some even go as far to believe to be totally fake and full of falsehood, and some the opposite. People don't want to fall into the category of societies "crazy" blanket, so they shove it under the rug.
For some people, saying you believe what you experienced is total horseshit, but will continue to pull realizations and ideas from the experience after the fact makes no sense to me, that sounds like a kid that got beat up in school and tried to say it never happened, almost a form of escapism in my opinion - trying to avoid or deny your own problems/reasoning for why the trip panned out the way it did.
You can use your logical mind to decipher delusion, but psychedelic experiences are no less truthful than our very waking lives. The experience is definitely 100% real in the moment, and it is 100% impactful on your life, how would one not correlate that to being truthful, in the sense of logic? It definitely made sense to you at the time, or nonsense..
And now you are left to reflect and decipher. But some, chose to deny all together, especially LSD users, a lot less common with DMT users.
My point is our lives are based off our belief system, and psychedelics love to show you the naked appearance of existence, it's nothing less truthful than the clothes on your back.

One Consciousness, Infinite embodied awareness. We float the cosmos, a mere projection of our own awareness.
I don't particularly believe anything to exist without awareness, for the fabric of existence would be undone.
Everything is real as we know it, we are the definition of our existence, but real as real knows it.. a mere illusion
