Alcohol can't give you psychosis after taking it only one time (or it is at least far less likely. It also can't give you persistent hallucinations[1] or permanently change your personality[2]. (In most cases these changes may appear positive, but there is probably potential for negative personality changes, too.)

You can die your first time driving a car if you're an idiot too but we don't outlaw cars for everyone because idiots exist.
