LSD is a man made drug. Each letter stands for part of the chemical composition, but I don't recall what all of them stand for. Usually, it's just called "Acid". It is an hallucinogen, meaning that it creates hallucinations in the human mind. It has been linked to brain washing and mind control, as well as supposedly providing a huge high. Some people who used acid said that it enabled them to "see God" when they were on "the trip". Most said that they experienced some form of religious experience. I don't know. Never tried it. I did have a friend who used to use LSD fairly often while we were in college. He died last year, after spending nearly 31 years in a mental hospital. He obviously took one too many trips, and he simply never came back. One in a million? Possibly. I am not about to take the chance, though. You may also want to research Syd Barrett, the founder of the original Pink Floyd, to see what LSD did to and for him.

LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is one of the major drugs making up the hallucinogen class of drugs. Hallucinogens cause hallucinations—profound distortions in a person’s perception of reality. Hallucinogens cause their effects by disrupting the interaction of nerve cells and the neurotransmitter serotonin. Distributed throughout the brain and spinal cord, the serotonin system is involved in the control of behavioral, perceptual, and regulatory systems, including mood, hunger, body temperature, sexual behavior, muscle control, and sensory perception.
Under the influence of hallucinogens, people see images, hear sounds, and feel sensations that seem real but do not exist. Some hallucinogens also produce rapid, intense emotional swings. One of the most potent mood-changing chemicals, LSD, was discovered in 1938 and is manufactured from lysergic acid, which is found in ergot, a fungus that grows on rye and other grains..if u refer to drugs..otherwise..it is...Latter Day Saints..its a religion

No,It is not a church. LSD is the short form for Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, a hallucinogenic drug, derived from ergot of rye. A powerful sympathomimetic drug, it acts on the brain centres connected with religon, spirituality and GOD or is supposed to do so. Like Mescaline, another hallucinogenic drug which Aldous Huxley experimented with and wrote his DOORS OF PERCEPTION. Mescaline is from the mexican cactus flower buds it used to be u taken by the natives for their religious ceremonies to get a high and establish scontact with God. A few micrograms of LSD is enoghto give ua high. It is smuggled even as glue onthe back ofpostage stamps.If ulick the stamap u get ahigh. It is banned under the UN laws on narcotic drugs
But circulates in the seedy drug marakets in USA and europe. Swiss pharmaceutical fiarms like Sandoz have done original reseearch int ergot of rye derivatives of which LSDis one. Shall behappy to furnish any other detailif uso desire
Hope this reply meets your expectations and puts u wise to the subject.

Lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly called LSD, or LSD-25, is a semisynthetic psychedelic drug. The short form LSD comes from the German "Lysergsäure-diethylamid". A typical single dose of LSD during the 1960s was between 100 and 200 micrograms,[1] a tiny amount roughly equal to one-tenth the mass of a grain of sand. Today, a typical single dose of LSD can be as low as 25–50 micrograms, although they are more commonly 50–100 micrograms.[1] Threshold effects can be felt with as little as 20 micrograms.[2]
The effects of LSD can vary greatly, depending on factors such as previous experiences, state of mind and environment, as well as dose strength. Generally, LSD causes expansion and altered experience of senses, emotions, memories, time, and awareness for 8 to 14 hours. In addition, LSD may produce visual effects such as moving geometric patterns, "trails" behind moving objects, and brilliant colors. LSD does not produce hallucinations in the strict sense but instead illusions and vivid daydream-like fantasies, in which ordinary objects and experiences can take on entirely different appearances or meanings. At higher doses it can cause synaesthesia. The drug experience sometimes spurs long-term or even permanent changes in a user's personality and life perspective.
LSD is synthesized from lysergic acid derived from ergot, a grain fungus that typically grows on rye. LSD is sensitive to oxygen, ultraviolet light, and chlorine, especially in solution (though its potency may last years if the substance is stored away from light and moisture at low temperature). In pure form it is colorless, odorless, and mildly bitter. LSD is typically delivered orally, usually on a substrate such as absorbent blotter paper, a sugar cube, or gelatin.
Introduced by Sandoz Laboratories as a drug with various psychiatric uses, LSD quickly became a therapeutic agent that appeared to show great promise. However, the extra-medical use of the drug in Western society in the middle years of the twentieth century led to a political firestorm that resulted in the banning of the substance for medical as well as recreational and spiritual uses. Despite this, it is still considered a promising drug in some intellectual circles. If you have any more questions email me!

It's a drug. A hallucinagent. It plays on your fears. Makes everything seem more extreme. Hightens your senses. Called 'Tripin" Alice in wonderland is actually a trip on LSD. Disney made it innocent by making it seem as if it was a DREAM.
