| | LSD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The drug was banned in the United States in 1967, for scientific therapeutic research as well as individual research and recreation. | | | The sensory shifts caused by the drug can lead users to sit or lie in awkward positions for extended periods of time, resulting in muscle cramps and soreness that may mistakenly be attributed to the direct physical action of the drug. | | | Some experts consider drugs such as LSD to be a sort of anti-drug (encourages users to stop using drugs), as it forces the user to face issues and problems in that individual's psyche. |

| | The Psychedelic Drug Therapies (1981) |
| | Psychedelic drugs might also be used to get past blocks in ordinary psychotherapy: to help patients decide whether they want to go through the sometimes painful process of psychotherapy, or to help a psychiatrist to decide whether a patient can benefit from the kind of insight that psychotherapy provides. | | | The main danger in psychedelic drug therapy is the same in any deep-probing psychotherapy: if the unconscious material that comes up can be neither accepted and integrated nor totally repressed, symptoms may become worse, and even psychosis or suicide is possible. | | | The purpose of giving psychedelic drugs to the dying might be stated as reconciliation: with one's past, family, and human limitations. |

| | The Psychedelic State |
| | Psychedelic drugs attach you to medico-biologic introspection, evoking active concern with your biochemistry, etc. (In contrast, when psychic energizers kick in, they lessen anxiety, and you welcome their effect without reservation.) It is difficult to refrain from probing for unseen (material) causes. | | | Secondly, the content of the psychedelic experience was to be explained by the Freudian theory of the unconscious. | | | The result is that the psychedelic experience cannot itself "speak." If I had had no information but these studies, I would have concluded that psychedelic drugs merely impair perception, and serve only to confirm fools in their folly. |

| | SOCIAL AND POLITICAL SOURCES OF DRUG EFFECTS: THE CASE OF BAD TRIPS ON PSYCHEDELICS |
| | Instead an historical analysis of the political conflict that was fashioned around psychedelic use in the 1960s suggests that the terms of this conflict and the policy environment around psychedelics structured social experience with these drugs in such a way as to generate experiences defined as bad trips. | | | The dynamic component of drug effects, particularly concerning anxiety or panic reactions to drug use, is developed by Becker into a theory of the "natural history of the assimilation of an intoxicating drug by a society" (p. | | | This state of intense political conflict and polarization over psychedelic drugs shifted over time to a state where use became depoliticized, social conflict shifted away from the subject of psychedelics, and the question of the effects of psychedelics was no longer a salient public issue nor even a topic flourishing in scientific journals. |

| | This is less relevant to the psychedelic movement because psychedelic drugs are not generally used for escapist purposes. | | | Kids by the late 60s and early 70s were often taking drugs for the wrong reasons and the psychedelic movement was giving way to an escapist and hedonistic youth drug culture that centered not on LSD but rather on pot, cocaine, alcohol, and other hedonistic and escapist drugs. | | | The psychedelic movement is fundamentally an idealistic movement based on the philosophy that personal transformation leads to social transformation. |

| | The fundamental problem with the concept of drug control is that most human beings, in all eras and cultures about which we know, have used and enjoyed drugs to modify their mood or state of mind. | | | While the use of the drugs this shock therapy addresses continues unabated or indeed increases, freedom and dignity are on the ropes, and in danger of going down for the count. | | | Regarded from this perspective, drug prohibition is seen as benign, indeed, beneficent, and this viewpoint has becomes so firmly rooted in the public consciousness as to make the concept accepted universally as a legitimate exercise, nay, as a solemn responsibility of capitalist and socialist governments alike (Szasz 1974; Szasz 1992). |

| | Leary taught psychology at Harvard and by 1960 was doing experiments with LSD and other hallucinogens, first on prison inmates and then on himself and his friends. | | | Leary's approach to taking LSD was the opposite of Ken Kesey'sÐLeary believed in "set and setting," a practice of taking the drug in a controlled environment, as a safeguard against bad trips. | | | This coloring book recounts scattered historical accounts of psychedelic drug use, focusing mainly on Leary and his associates, Alpert and Metzner, and their experimentations at Millbrook, New York. |

| | Psychedelic drug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Many people have applied the term psychedelic to other drugs including cannabis, dissociative arylcyclohexylamines such as PCP and ketamine, tropane deliriants such as atropine, or novel psychoactives such as Amanita muscaria and Salvia divinorum. | | | The toxicologies of these new drugs have not been well-established, but initial research shows that they have a much-increased risk of idiosyncratic reaction and a much lower therapeutic index than classic psychedelics. | | | This is not to say that psychedelic drugs cannot harm an ill-prepared user mentally, as they certainly can and have. |
