Shrooms are definitely dangerous, especially for people who are prone to schizophrenia I've read.
Personally, they made me realize my mind is capable of being content. No longer full blast, spinning plates all of the time.
That experience made me realise change is possible, and I got professional help a year later. Turns out I've been living in C-PTSD since I was 5.
This might be a weird one, but it is helping me a lot.
My deepest spirals into depression and alcohol abuse happen in the evening and at night.
I switched to waking up early (5am), focused on experiencing and enjoying sunrise as a kind of meditation, then going about my day. I'm off to bed by 8pm.
There's still days where I can't catch sleep for hours, mind racing. But hours past 8pm is still only 2am.
Listening to music: And I mean REALLY listening to music
Amen. I've been listening to the same album since february. Trying to decypher every baseline, every cymbal.
Brings my mind to a happier place.
I like Xubuntu. But I've no experience on how well it does with touch screens.
I've met people who don't know what a URL is.
The kind of people that google "facebook" when they want to visit facebook.
Completely flabbergasted that we run internal services not indexable by google.
I didn't do no nothing wrong now, didn't I?
"Solidarity" as it's too often used to make others do things you want.

Had the same issue with outlook last weeks. 60% CPU usage, doing nothing.
You're confusing cause and effect, I fear
5-HTP serves me well. It's got a similar serotonin impact without the tripiness of shrooms.
