Substances, is everything on earth created by god allowed for us?

i was strolling about on youtube and came across a video of a young woman who had taken psychedelic mushrooms and studied math and she found great uses of it, and so i recall i had handed one friend some long back in high school as i was very much into psychedelics for some years and he explained to me that he had taken a very small amount, called a microdose before heading to school where he was put to draw and design a whole ship engine, and he said to me that it was all so very easy suddenly, it all just came together infront of him
i was reading into a forum where they discuss about this and verses are brought up saying we arent to be living in drunken-ness and to be soberminded, positive effects of this exact substance were mentioned and comparisons with alcohol were made, claiming they didnt drink pure wine back in the time of jesus but half wine- personally i avoid alcohol entirely knowing it can open you up to attacks, although most christians think alcohol is fine in small amounts, i also recall the bible saying its ok in small amounts as it can be healthy to some degree.. like medicine
one could argue intention
leading me to that some of these albeit, very unpopular streetdrugs, such as mushrooms (because you dont get addicted to them like coffee or weed or .. cocaine) has a lot of positive benefits, long ago i saw a video made by a young woman who had battled depression for years and even antidepressants failed her, for YEARS. she took one single gramme and it was just gone
some years ago i still had a bunch of it left and i happened to have a coworker suffering from ADHD so he had some of that, one day we spoke he explained me that he always has very cluttered thoughts but after having a mushroom experience for an entire month these thoughts are just all calmed down and gone

now, with any kind of substance in demonic harassment we have seen that when you give the demons what they want, ie something selfdestructive they will leave you for a while but then come right back again to demand you violate yourself further

im not quite sure if that counts for mushrooms, the times i did take them (long before i was christian i might add....) i generally had good experiences, but after taking something that literally opened a portal to hell the experiences were always just pure torture, just evil visions, very evil and dreadful dark visions. pure hatred coming through. which, could have just been me able to see the spirits hanging around me. for several years i was gravely haunted and like in the movie paranormal activity i was first touched in my bed, if my hand wasnt under blanket, later on it pulled my hand from under the blanket and lastly pulled my leg out but luckily it stopped at that. so im well aware these demons can manifest in entirely physical ways and somewhere down the line i had used substances or delved into the occult to an extent that allowed real demons to partake in my life and even have power to touch my body

to sum up, if one can take a small amount of something and have positive and lasting effect, should we consider it as safe? i know the safe bet would be just to say no, but here we are.. on the internet. not quite christian is it. but yet we utilize it to have great reach and seek loads of information.
the times i microdosed it it had a bit of a funny effect on me, i was in greater mood but certainly no drugged feeling, i felt sober entirely. i was one of the best in the class and i easily passed the exam (interestingly that guy was there with me, who 10 years later became my coworker..)
after using these substances my physical appearance change for the better and i started looking into psychology and naturally my creativity grew yet more, i cant say for sure it was exactly the mushrooms that attracted evil spirits as those i encountered always seemed kind empathic and helpful, and i would get very clear vision of spirits from abandoned homes where i at one point had some short communication with, the first time i had mushrooms i even received a major download of information on how gender and hormones impact humans which later became something i studied day and night for just over a handful of years and to this day still find major use in analyzing and understanding people and especially i doubt i would have succeeded in getting married if i didnt have all this powerful psychological insight not just for my sake but also my wifes sake - it has even extended to breaking down my mothers ego and landed her in a seemingly healthy relationship for once.
i guess i feel a bit bad letting down something that has given me so much.

i never felt especially sinful when using mushrooms, it put me in a great mood that lasted for a long time and made me appreciate nature and being alive, pretty much anything they preach for us to be like in church, i recall also some claims that "manna" in the bible was considered to perhaps have been mushrooms. a strong mushroom experience also tends to crush your ego and humble you, which is yet another thing that makes it the polar opposite of popular drugs such as alcohol, coffee and cocaine especially

so, how would you guys who presumably never have indulged in any such substances decide whether something is entirely to be avoided? how do we quantify it. personally i think ive had more than plenty help from mushrooms and i really dont want any chance of those haunting dark visions back in my life again - but there are surely others who could benefit from it, but should it be allowed by any means? theres many examples of harmful drugs being used in small amounts for surgery and diseases

if at a loss of what to answer at least pray that god will show me the clear answer
