Psychedelics Helped The Smiths Mend Their Family Problems
Recently at the Psychedelic Science conference in Denver, Colorado, 24-year-old Jaden Smith spoke out about the use of psychedelics in his family. According to him, it was his mom Jada Smith who introduced the family to psychedelics.
“I think it was my mom, actually, that was really the first one to make that step for the family,” Jaden said. “It was just her for a really, really long time and then eventually it just trickled and evolved, and everybody found it in their own ways.”
Jaden also added how the use of psychedelics helped with the siblings’ relationships. Jaden talked about always quarreling with his 22-year-old sister Willow and 30-year-old half-brother Trey. “Siblings can argue so much and fight so much, and lord knows me and my siblings have done so much of that in the past,” said ‘The Karate Kid‘ star.
“But the level of love and empathy that I can feel for them inside of the [psychedelic] experiences and outside of the experiences has been something that’s profound and beautiful,” he added.
