Ive heard that hallucinogens arent even addictive. So what is the big deal?
LSD does not produce compulsive drug seeking behavior like cocaine, alcohol, or nicotine, but LSD produces tolerance, so that users who take the drug repeatedly must take progressively higher and higher doses in order to achieve the same state of intoxication. This is an extremely dangerous practice, given the unpredictability of the drug, and can result in increased risk of convulsions, coma, heart and lung failure, and even death. ——————————————————————————– Resources American Council for Drug Education 167 West 74th Street New York, NY 10023 212-758-8060 1-800-488-DRUG Families Anonymous, Inc.
