What is "lysergic acid diethylamide"?
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is a powerful drug that causes hallucinations and changes in one's senses, thoughts, and feelings. It can cause extreme changes in sensory experiences, mood, and consciousness. Users often see vivid colors, shapes, and patterns, and experience a change in their sense of time and space. LSD affects the brain's serotonin receptors, leading to these intense and unpredictable effects. While it is not considered addictive, LSD can cause significant psychological distress and potentially dangerous behavior during its effects, which can last for up to 12 hours. Its use is illegal in many countries because of these risks and its potential for abuse.
