Yeah, I’ve used it to treat CPTSD. It has saved my life, not even an exaggeration, however I wish more people knew of the safeguards one should put in place (I surely didn’t at first).
I’ve responded to kraftpudding above with two resources, which were rather valuable for my therapeutic trips, if you look above this comment string. Hope this helps!
Also it should go without saying that you should always test substances, if you’re unable to professionally (in the UK Wedinos is a free testing service with anonymity) Ehrlich Reagents are very cheap online and allow you to quickly test a corner of a tab at home.
There are a LOT of substances with hallucinogenic effect, which can be mistaken by many for LSD however with a different effect in most cases, or more risk in others. AL-LAD, ETH-LAD, DOB/DOM, etc.
Happy tripping and be safe, remember that each journey is different for everyone but there are definitely things you can do to make the experience a good one, or even great.
Hah, I have the same shit. What’s the safeguards you recommend? I found that some frequently given tips do not work well for me, especially the recommendation to have a trip sitter/not to trip alone. I have some trust issues, and other people in the room make me anxious. Honestly I even avoid mirrors because the visual delay can make smiles look demonic. But a familiar and clean environment, plenty of water and fruit, good smells, chill music and a big bottle of seroquel (to always have the option to kill the trip when it’s too much) are very important for me to feel well prepared.
I could spend a while typing a bunch, however a better resource I could recommend is The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide, by James Fadiman. He was involved in legal LSD therapies right before all studies were told to abruptly end with little to no warning. I figured he would be a great resource on the subject.
Another resource is a pamphlet, which was sent to various psychologists in the '50s. You’d be able to find this on Erowid.org (sorry I’m away from my computer and it’s rather late or I would directly link it, it shouldn’t be difficult to find though).
Yeah. Honestly, once or twice a year is enough for me. Because it’s just a lot to process and I’m basically out of commission for 2 days anyways.

What would that be?
