My brother in law is a retired addictionologist. LSD was used with some success in So Florida back in the early 90's to treat crack addicts.
Some folks get far to much info from the internet. LSD was thought to be a game changer with mental health in the 1950's. Lots of stuff is thought to be a game changer but doesn't work so well outside of the lab.

It isn’t recommended outside of a controlled setting and you can bet that the only way it will ever be approved for clinical use is with a controlled dose in combination with CBT. The efficacy is very high, though. Really good work being done on this front. MDMA will be a very prominent drug used in treating PTSD, too.

You just triggered everyone over the age of 40. Congrats.

Seems like most people are recovering from the anti-weed propaganda given how absolutely smoothly things are going in legalized states. Same thing will likely happen with mushrooms, LSD, peyote, etc., too. A lot of people do have trouble with the undeniable fact that weed is less harmful than alcohol, though.

Came to post this.
Read about it in High Times long ago.

I personally believe that these “illegal” substances including DMT/Ayahuasca have the potential to revolutionize mental health treatment effectiveness.
The real progress will be in the proper selection of patients, proper timing to undergo the experience during the course of treatment, and the importance/quality of those administering and directing the therapeutic “experience”.
I also believe the “medicines” to be more efficacious in those in young adulthood or older (over age 25).
I think it is both promising and exciting, but not without risk-especially when undertaken alone.

If only the American public were adult enough to handle these substances.

I think everyone should take lsd at least once in their life. Not counting mentally ill of course.
A lot of the world’s problems would go away.
Once you step through that door and ‘see’ then you can’t unsee it. Such a powerful experience and it’s real medicine
