I can see some argument for certain substances having, at the least, some adjacency to psychedelia, e.g. by way of some shared or similar mechanisms based around 5-HT receptor agonism and key involvement of the dopaminergic & serotonergic systems. But in the end we can't accurately split a hair whose bounds we can't define.
