Almost the very moment man walked out the cave. Man has been abusing and using mind alerting drugs, plants, and fungi as well as brewing drinks for centuries. We have found the dried remains of wine, beer and other substances as far back as 6,000 years ago. In the US colonies every man, woman, child drank 4 pints of ale a day. The civil war soldiers were given opiates to help fight pain as they marched. Mind altering substances have been used for religious practice by the Greeks, the Egyptians, Native Americans and other cultures. This is nothing new in the history of man.
