	Psychedelic drug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Psychedelics have a long history of traditional use in native medicine and religion, where they are prized for their perceived ability to promote physical and mental healing.
		Classic psychedelics include LSD, psilocybin (one active principle of 'magic mushrooms'), mescaline (one active principle of peyote and the San Pedro cactus), LSA (morning glory seeds) and also Ayahuasca (known in Beatnik literature as yajé), a traditional shamanic tea brewed from plants containing dimethyltryptamine and harmine or harmaline.
		Newer "designer drug" psychedelics such as MDMA, 2C-T-7, and other phenethylamine analogues are harder to identify and easier to "cut" (nearly all presenting as a white powder with a bitter taste with doses too small to judge without laboratory-precision scales).

	LSD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		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.
		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.
		As such, the Drug Enforcement Administration holds that LSD meets the following three criteria: it is deemed to have a high potential for abuse; it has no legitimate medical use in treatment; and there is a lack of accepted safety for its use under medical supervision.

	SOCIAL AND POLITICAL SOURCES OF DRUG EFFECTS: THE CASE OF BAD TRIPS ON PSYCHEDELICS
		Psychedelic drug use during the 1960s came to be associated with other underground, defiant popular movements that emerged and spread from the mid to late 1960s.
		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.
		Psychedelics were first marketed by pharmaceutical companies to medical researchers and practitioners whose interests were focussed on abnormal behavior and many, of whom practiced in mental illness institutions; and to a military espionage elite *interested in psychochemical warfare.

		Of course, he strongly advocated training before taking the drug - and that is what he did during the 60s: he held drug seminars where he would lecture and assign readings to people and then they would all trip as their graduation ceremony.

		The purpose of giving psychedelic drugs to the dying might be stated as reconciliation: with one's past, family, and human limitations.
		However, psychedelic drugs were used for more than 15 years by hundreds of competent psychiatrist, who considered them reasonably safe as therapeutic agents, and no one has effectively challenged this opinion.
		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 Psychedelic State
		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.
		A psychedelic trip occurs in the waking state, and it is a variation on the enduring waking self and the accoutrements of "the" world.
		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.

		As a group, the drugs are often referred to as psychedelic (meaning mind-altering) or hallucinogenic because they cause people to have hallucinations; that is, to imagine they see and hear things.
		Psychedelic drugs were associated with "hippies," a counterculture of mostly young people who felt alienated from the mainstream American society and grew, in part, out of the anti-Vietnam war sentiment of the time.

		Far from protecting public health, drug prohibition is drastically expanding the AIDS epidemic and contributing to the deaths of thousands of individuals in the United States alone from "drug overdose"- individuals who are deprived of the protection of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and its counterparts in other countries.
		Meanwhile, the proscribed drugs are readily available to all comers on the street corner, and the user is deprived of the quality-control guarantees his tax dollars are paying the Food and Drug Administration authorities (and their counterparts in other countries) to provide.
		Over 800 drugs, including LSD and bufotenine, were tested on prisoners in the federal government's Lexington, Kentucky "Addiction Research Center Hospital."

	Psychedelic 60s: Timothy Leary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In 1960, Allen Ginsberg, supervised by Leary, ingested psilocybin mushrooms, (under the influence of the drug, he phoned Jack Kerouac, identifying himself as God to the telephone operator), and began to spread the word about the new powerful psychedelic drugs.
		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.
		We maintain that the psychedelic substances are sacraments, that is, divine substances, no matter who uses them, in whatever spirit, with whatever intentions: it is not just a question of terminology.
