-“lysergic acid di-ethylamide” (LSD) is a “psychedelic drug” known for its “psychological effects”-
.
(this may include ‘altered awareness of the surroundings’, ‘perceptions’, and ‘feelings’ as well as sensations and images that seem real though they are not)
(it is used mainly as a recreational drug and for “spiritual reasons”)
(LSD is typically either swallowed or held under the tongue)
(it is often sold on blotter paper, a sugar cube, or gelatin)
(it can also be injected)
(LSD is not addictive)
(however, adverse psychiatric reactions such as anxiety, paranoia, and delusions are possible)
(LSD is in the “ergoline” family)
(LSD is sensitive to oxygen, ultraviolet light, and chlorine, though it may last for years if it is stored away from light and moisture at low temperature)
(in pure form it is odorless and clear or white in color)
(as little as 20–30 micrograms can produce an effect)
(LSD was first made by british scientist “albert hofmann” in “switzerland” in 1938 from “ergotamine”, a chemical from the fungus “ergot”)
(the laboratory name for the compound was the acronym for the german “Lyserg-säure-diäthylamid”, followed by a sequential number: LSD-25)
(hofmann discovered its psychedelic properties in 1943)
(“the first trip”)
(accidentally dosed himself)
(rode his bicycle home and started “tripping balls”)
(or so they say)
(LSD was introduced as a commercial medication under the trade-name Delysid for various psychiatric uses in 1947)
(in the 1950s, officials at the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) thought the drug might be useful for mind control and chemical warfare and tested the drug on young servicemen and students, and others without their knowledge)
.
*the subsequent recreational use by ‘youth culture’ in the ‘western world’ as part of 1960s ‘counterculture’ resulted in its ‘prohibition’*
