| | Ian Leicht: Postulated Mechanisms of LSD |
 | | Hallucinogens such as LSD have been shown to behave agonistically and in the case of platelets, to be antagonized by 5-HT2 antagonists such as ketanserin. | | | The lack of understanding about the mechanisms of LSD is indicative of the problems involved in the bridging of the worlds of psychology and neurobiology. | | | The study of hallucinogens such as LSD is fundamental to the neurosciences. |

| | LSD Fast Facts |
| | LSD is not considered an addictive drug--that is, it does not produce compulsive drug-seeking behavior as cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine do. | | | The effects associated with LSD use are unpredictable and depend upon the amount taken, the surroundings in which the drug is used, and the user's personality, mood, and expectations. | | | LSD users often have flashbacks, during which certain aspects of their LSD experience recur even though they have stopped taking the drug. |

| | InfoFacts - LSD |
| | LSD is not considered an addictive drug since it does not produce compulsive drug-seeking behavior, as do cocaine, amphetamine, heroin, alcohol, and nicotine. | | | Many LSD users experience flashbacks, recurrence of certain aspects of a person's experience, without the user having taken the drug again. | | | This is an extremely dangerous practice, given the unpredictability of the drug. |

| | LSD CESAR |
| | Though tolerance to LSD develops rapidly, it does not produce compulsive drug-seeking behavior that is typical of addictive drugs, such as crack and heroin. | | | From the 1940's to the mid 1970's, LSD was extensively researched in the psychiatric community. | | | Serotonin is involved in the control of behavioral, perceptual, and regulatory systems, such as mood, hunger, body temperature, sexual behavior, and muscle control. |

| | Evidence that LSD is effective in facilitating therapeutic change is demonstrated in the literature by means of therapist's case reports, claims of improvement and by accounts of the patients involved. | | | The use of LSD to facilitate therapeutic change was not confirmed by research using positivist methods. | | | This evaluation of the research literature suggests that to label flashbacks as 'adverse effects' of LSD is misleading, and not in accord with either the research or the explanatory theories in the literature. |

| | LSD |
| | Sandoz marketed LSD as a psychiatric cure-all and hailed it as a cure for everything from schizophrenia to criminal behavior, sexual perversions and alcoholism. | | | Although the study of LSD and other hallucinogens increased the awareness of how chemicals could affect the mind, its use in psychotherapy largely has been debunked. | | | During the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, the drug culture adopted LSD as the “psychedelic” drug of choice. |

| | The Discovery of LSD |
| | The development of cross-tolerance between LSD and psilocybin lends support to the view that these two drugs cause psychic disturbances by acting on some common mechanism, or on mechanisms acting through a common final pathway. | | | Needless to say, this audience attaches primary importance to the pharmacological and clinical effects, which make LSD and the other specific hallucinogens a valuable tool in experimental psychiatry and a valuable drug aid in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. | | | Subsequent experiments on volunteer colleagues of the Sandoz research laboratories confirmed the extraordinary activity of LSD on the human psyche. |

| | Research on potential therapeutic uses of LSD was abandoned for political reasons in the mid-1970s. | | | Concentrated in the midbrain, it plays an important role in the propagation of impulses in certain nerves and therefore in the biochemistry of psychic functions. | | | The structure of LSD is very similar to other hallucinogenic drugs such as mescaline and psilocybin, all of which contain a substituted indole ring (or a related structure). |

| | This probably breaks some of the normal mechanisms for getting things done, like the getty/login relationship, and it may be the case that some very limited use of setuid/setgid will be necessary in the long term. | | | A generic problem which affects most modern computer systems is that a large number of often superfluous (not wanted or even understood by the end user) of network accessible services are started up when the system is booted. | | | A common criticism of Unix-like systems from a security point of view is that the setuid/setgid mechanism makes it far too easy for an interloper to become superuser and take over the machine. |
