As a retired investment banker, I can say that there is a guilt among some of my ilk as to the world they live in and the work they do (they feel it is meaningless and unfulfilling)...and they are prone to depression about this matter.

If a hallucinogenic experience were to cause some deep contemplation (which it often does), such might lead to a sudden and deep sense of despair. And jumping is a very easy way to stop this despair without having to plan or endanger the lives of other.

“If a hallucinogenic experience were to cause some deep contemplation (which it often does), such might lead to a sudden and deep sense of despair.”

Sure, it might, but there’s no way to be sure that those effects would happen. This is why the intelligence agencies investigated hallucinogens for various purposes and then abandoned them, because they just couldn’t be relied on for reproducible results.
