Hallucinogens are a general group of pharmacological agents that can be divided into three broad categories:
The universal effects that these classes of psychoactive drugs have in common is that they can cause subjective changes in perception, thought, emotion and consciousness. Unlike other psychoactive drugs (such as alcohol, stimulants and opioids) these drugs do not merely amplify familiar states of mind, but rather induce experiences that are qualitatively different from those of ordinary consciousness. These experiences are often compared to non-ordinary forms of consciousness such as lucid dreaming, meditation, religious experiences, hallucinations, dreams and insanity.
