LSD And PCP Use

LSD and PCP Use


     Today there is increasing usage of two very powerful, and dangerous

drugs in the youth of this Nation.  LSD is one of these drugs,  this

hallucinogen more commonly known as Acid and is one of the longest lasting highs

that are out there.  LSD was first researched in 1953 when the Central

Intelligence Agency thought that the Soviets and Chinese would use LSD to

brainwash American diplomats.  The Federal Drug Enforcement Administration lists

this drug as a "schedule I" drug that means that it has high potential for abuse.

During the "turn-on, tune-in, drop-out" time of the 60's LSD became the thing

for social and political movements to freedom, creativity, self-discovery and

opposition to the Vietnam War.  Some freaked out during bad trips as LSD caused

panic and advansded mental illnesses.  Most are curried with flashbacks that are

recurrences of hallucinations.  Some people thought they could fly, and jumped

to their deaths.  The popularity of the rug in the 60's started research and

laws making its use illegal.  LSD is the chemical term or lysergic acid diethyl

amide.  National Institute on Drug Abuse surveys indicate illicit use of LSD has

remained relatively constant.  Almost 2 percent of high school seniors are

current users and 8.7 percent have taken LSD at least once.  Its not creating

the problems it created in the 60's because the average street dose is al least

50 percent lower.
