is gypsum board or plaster ceiling contents gypsum safe ? i mean for long term effects to health?

Answer:

Short term exposure is no problem with most minerals in the building trade, long term exposure can cause scar tissue/fibrosis build up in the lungs and a remote chance of cancer. Get some dust masks they don't stop it all but they are better than nothing.
