The whole "Schedule I" thing is probably a bad choice of words on the authors part. Perhaps something along the lines of "mind altering substances"? Anything with the potential to significantly impact a persons impressions of the world around them is a bad idea in this situation.

There is a whole lotta things outside ingested and inhaled chemicals which can lead significantly impact a persons impressions of the world around them. I always found Julian Jaynes take on the interpretation of the schizophrenic mind as being one of degrees and perhaps just a few neuro-physical variations away from "normal" as interesting ponderage.
