Well no wonder I'm cranky, I haven't taken acid in years. Gotta fix that...

In short…

In conclusion, 1 year after the last visit of a study that investigated LSD-assisted treatment in patients with anxiety disorders, symptoms of anxiety and depression remained low. Lasting negative effects were minimal. Patients reported enhanced well-being, and showed reduced neuroticism and increased extraversion.

Psychedelics can be amazing like that. Having gone through a similar experience with higher doses of psilocybin, I can say that the experience helped me quite a bit.

Thanks to William Pickard , and Clyde Apperson for their contributions. They provided an estimated 95% of the world LSD supply until 2000. Then Gordon Skinner turned them in :(

The quality and availability has dropped hard since then.
