None at all.
I believe Albert Hoffman, the guy who discovered LSD has been quoted as saying that it does no psychological damage at all.
albert hoffman who the fuck is that ???
the pioneer and all around acid/lsd guru everyone knows was Timmothy Leary may his soul rest in peace
look that name up and reserch it youll find a laundry list long of stuff that will facinate and all around turn you into a real acid tripper
Albert Hoffman was the first to synthesize LSD in 1938. In April of 1943 he was the first subjected to the drugs effects, Hoffman is still alive. I remember hearing that he still trips somewhere but I can't verify that.
Timothy Leary was a pyschologist who began experimenting with LSD in the 1960s and advocated its use, he died in 1996.
leary didnt descover lsd just used it

physically its completely safe. (or as safe as any drug can be.) Psychologically it tends to be completely safe as long as you dont have any psychological problems to begin with, but bad psychological reactions to acid aren't unheard of.
LSD works by causing increased activity on 5ht receptors in the brain, hence it's a 5ht agonist.
toxioligically it's extremely safe. 500 micrograms is a very high dose of LSD and the lethal dose is about 30 times that.
woah cool I'm studying toxicology in college. That and writing. and art.
isnt 5ht seritonin .i cant spell somethin your body producesQuote:

Up until very recently, he still tripped on LSD 2X a month. Maybe he's cut it down a bit to 1X a month now lol!

dude, lsd is something fucking powerful!!!!!!! it won't do brain damage but it something goes wrong ur fucked, it could permanently damage ur nervous system.......do a little search on google before asking it on this board!
my recommendation, stay with weeeed
i knew both binded to 5ht receptors, but i was unaware that LSD does so more effectively. that's interesting that a foreign chemical to the body works better than the chemical occuring naturally.Quote:

I think "bad" is a pretty simple term anyways. Anything can be "bad" under the right circumstances.
If you're sitting at home with some friends and nothing to do for a while, LSD is not bad.
At a family reunion, probably not the best idea. Then again, it would be funny seeing smurfs come out of Grandpa's nose.
