A new study suggests that lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), also known as acid, could reduce anxiety.
This marks the first-ever trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MM120 (a pharmaceutical formulation of LSD) as a monotherapy for patients with moderate to severe generalized anxiety disorder, according to lead author Daniel Karlin, M.D., chief medical officer of MindMed, a biopharmaceutical company in New York.
The study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. …

The only “bad trips” I’ve experienced with drugs were with marijuana causing me to have a panic reactions in my youth. I think marijuana is much more dangerous to consume if you already have a propensity towards mental illness like I do. The psychedelics were different with their effects on me and actually seem to improve mental health. And with micro dosing these substances you should be able to get the benefits without having to experience the high.
It didn’t “escape” from the lab. The CIA purchased the entire world supply in the early 1950s, ostensibly to keep it out of the hands of the Soviets. They were looking, they say, for truth serum, and other purposes, namely manipulation of the mind, attitudes, and beliefs. Within ten years it was flooding California, “Acid Tests”. It makes people highly suggestible, and more easily hypnotized, among other things.
Don’t take my word for it. Please see posts 34 and 36.
And do some actual research, unfiltered.
Start here:
Might have been Ewan Cameron, a Canadian researcher on contract. Anyway one “experiment” at Kentucky State Prison involved addicts who were given a choice of their favorite drug as a reward, under the condition they agree to take part in their experiments. They kept 3 inmates on LSD for 77 straight days, and when they tried to go to sleep (eventually) they were awakened with cattle prods. Cameron called it “psychic driving”, or somesuch.
That’s an escape. And there’s the other part: it’s really not that hard to make. Very easy chemistry and lots and lots of the people involved figured that out and spread the knowledge around. Heck I knew guys that could make, the hardest part back in the 80s was either getting or making a good centrifuge. Other than that it’s just a few easily acquired chemicals in the right proportion.
Yes it puts someone into a semi-hypnotic state, open to suggestion. Remember the only real difference between therapy and brainwashing is intent. So anything that’s good a therapeutic, which LSD is, is also good for brainwashing.
“Very easy chemistry”. Please, tell me what it is.
They seem to have often chosen people vulnerable or otherwise lacking full agency in some way.
If Daniel Karlin, M.D. can get it legal I can hear his pimping ad line for it.

You can google that yourself. I don’t need the paper trail. But it was kind of a joke for a long time that the best way to pay for college was to take freshmen bio chem because everything you’d need to know was in that class.
It was purposeful, make no mistake. They wanted to dose Americans with one of the, if not the most powerful drugs ever invented.
The spook agencies were up to their eyeballs in the “Anti War” movement, the “Hippies” and the “Counterculture”. Grass roots movements are re-purposed, that’s job one. No generation has been f&@$cked with more than the “Boomers”.
It was an extremely large cohort, dwarfing everything before and after.
Psychodelic drugs, coupled with relentless propaganda, music, media. This is no fevered conspiracy theory or hypothesis, they said this is what they were going to do going way back. Aldous Huxley had a brother named Julian, who described it fairly extensively.
He (Aldous) died on the same day as JFK (and CS Lewis); he had his wife inject with 100 mikes of LSD right as he died. The Frankfurt School of Social Research brought much of the agitation to Academia by the 1960s. “Make Love Not War” was coined by Herbert Marcuse.
Time-Life was headed by Henry Luce - another acid head from the early 1950s. At first the “Elites” thought the stuff was much too good to let the riff-raff and rabble partake in.
The spooks knew otherwise, I expect.
With all due respect, I have learned to take Google searches with a rather large grain of salt, and even more so today with their AI babble taking precedence.
Larry Hagman touted his cure from alcoholism was therapeutic doses of LSD. But this was when LSD wasn’t on a schedule and psychiatric doctors were prescribing it for various treatments.
I can dig the groovy colors, man.
‘The “Atlas missile silo in Kansas that manufactured LSD and got busted” refers to a former Atlas-E missile silo near Wamego, Kansas, where the laboratory equipment for the largest LSD manufacturing operation in history was stored before its discovery in 2000. William Leonard Pickard and Clyde Apperson were caught by law enforcement while moving the equipment, leading to their arrests and the subsequent bust of the operation.’ It would have been interesting to work there.
