Yeah, I'm not to thrilled with the LSD idea. The only thing I've read is how an extract from shrooms helps terminal people who are filled with anxiety come to grips with the fact that they are dying. But the article explained that more research is necessary to understand why.

Personally, I don't lump LSD and cannabis into the same category. Cannabis isn't hallucinogenic. It's more like a sedative that resets brain chemistry through manipulation of the endocannabinoid system, thereby helping with anxiety, PTSD, pain, and things that short circuit the nervous system, etc.
