Yeah, I am confused about the acronym too. They use the L and S from lysergic instead of calling it LAD 🤷♂️

LSD is fucking boring. There, I said it. People say ‘on acid’ to mean crazy, unhinged and over-the-top but it just makes you notice things like shapes more and you have to specifically remember to swing your arms when you walk.

Boring compared to what, PCP? Every trip I’ve had has been enjoyable. Yeah I didn’t see talking dragons or whatever but I had a shitload of fun spending the day in the woods with my friends watching the trees branch off and wondering about the nature of reality. I also got really fucking good at Rocket League.

If you really wanna see talking dragons, you have to go to a furry convention.

Yeah it was a useless response really and I misread your question a bit. Doing acid just means taking LSD.

Why does every comment section on Lemmy seem to have at least one person who seems to have never gone outside
ghost_rider69@thelemmy.club 16 hours ago
I do go outside and I do know what acid is but this post makes “doing acid” sound like doing drugs or something but even if that’s how they are “get addicted to acid” then that would be really harmful to them that’s how I understand this post and I know most likely this is wrong explanation so that’s why I’m seeking answer

I don’t think this post is implying “addiction” at all. I think it is more referring to the fact that taking any hallucinogen at such a young age is a bad idea because your brain is still developing. The drug is likely affecting brain development in some way or another.

LSD and shrooms are not addictive, and they actually have some really good outcomes for certain mental illnesses, such as depression and PTSD. I know several people who were suicidal and depressed teenagers whose entire outlook on life changed after one trip at a somewhat young age.
