that's the beauty of not believing in a soul or similar: for teleportation to affect your mind it would have to affect your body, and that's nothing unusual.
It's just a hazard like any other, absolute worst case it scrambles your brain and leaves you with locked-in syndrome, and the only thing causing that to be worse than death is that we have a cultural taboo against euthanasia.
