ok, to debunk a few myths

a bad trip doesn't mean you'll be stuck in a trip for ever
it just means the trip (8-12 hours worth) would be a "difficult" experience, no fun, frightening...

Don't get me wrong, i'm not going to recommend jumping into acid just for the kicks of it... that's something for young folks who are still fearless..

But essentially , acid has proven to be very safe in terms of toxicity, and also in terms of after effects...

The major IF is , that folks with underlying psychological problems, might have things become very acute, during and after the experience... As would with other various substances (alcohol, uppers, downers, whatever)

Sane people, if taken proper precaution , who have a good set & setting, and sitter
should be able to handle it...and even if they have a bad trip, should be able to deal with it, with no permanent effects... at worst some mild post traumatic stress that fades over time...

But just a little fact, LSD was actually discovered while Albert Hoffman was looking for medicine that had beneficial effects towards the vascular system...

And it's closely related in chemical form to Psylocibin, the active ingredient of Shrooms.... Although it's massively more powerful, and that's the difficult part of dealing with it...

if you have migraines, you might consider shrooms, lsd however is not for the amateur...it's to wild to control, you can't predict doses or experiences... which you can with shrooms...

eating a couple of shrooms instead of a whole basket for instance , makes it controllable in terms of mild experience vs heavier experience, yet the beneficial effects on migraines should be noticeable with smaller doses too... there are many that claim it works really well that way, and you don't need to be tripping balls to find relief ... oh yeah, and it's not addictive, and has good effects weeks after the shroom are gone...

I don't have migraines myself, but anybody who at em or acid before can tell you, that there is no hangover , instead you have a reverse hangover, where you feel like a million bucks the weeks after you tripped, which further contradicts any claim that either would be addictive..
