i have only this excellent video to go on, but it seems to me that the chap's history of depression is a red herring. The problem was pure and simple - the dumb twit took a hallucinogenic of unknown potency and without experience. He also took it at a location where magic mushrooms do not occur, so his so-called friends had probably bought it from a dealer - which means it had unknown contamination. Many years ago, I was with a community service group that, among other things, offered rehabilitation programmes for druggies. The most difficult to handle of all illicit drugs are the hallucinogens such as psylocibin and LSD. They scramble your brain, sometimes on your first dose. While the effects usually last only hours, sometimes they can last much longer, and after apparently wearing off, recur days or even months later. And when they do recur (flash back) the person's behavior can suddenly be so bizarre that nobody can understand it. I hope his so-called friends got prosecuted.
