Nuance of experience is a topic that is often ignored in the relatively sanitised information space surrounding “Novel Psychoactive Substances”, or NPS in the UK.

“The Psychedelic State” is an almost equally vague descriptor but allowable simply because it does seem to refer to a real phenomenon — a cognitive “place” with a vast variation in it’s landscape.
