[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously therapy. But, LSD is not addictive. So you should probably be more worried about smoking cigarettes and alcohol.  [/quote]

I guess I’m old school. But smoking and drinking has been tried and true for hundreds of years and was what the upper classes did before anti anxiety drugs were more prevalent.  Dropping acid seems a lot scarier to me. [/quote]

Cigarettes and booze kill so many more people - there's no comparison. LSD is not addictive and is generally something people do once or twice. I would still be concerned and want to know what's going on, [b]but engaging in Reefer Madness type hysteria is not useful.[/b] [/quote]

You sound uniformed. Cigarettes don't affect your cognition, and alcohol is served in standardized units so it doesn't take much experience to know how it affects you. There is no way, no way, I would allow a teen to try LSD. Especially at a sleepover. Where is it from? What's actually in it? How will it affect him? What's the plan if someone freaks out or gets dangerous (in college a friend lost her cousin when he stepped out of a window after dropping acid. Completely unexpected). Also, there is increasing data that marijuana is dangerous for teenage brains and puts them at increased risk for developing psychosis later. We know this now because they actually studying it. Just because there is limited data on the effects of LSD on teen brains doesn't mean it is harmless.
