No, it is most definitely not. It’s flooded with gel tabs of cheap synthetics.
There is a laundry list of odorless tasteless microgram dose psychedelics that are extremely comparable to LSD and indistinguishable except to an extremely advanced psychonaut.
If you go to a festival and take drugs and think that it’s real LSD, that’s laughable ignorance. Statistically, it’s almost impossible to find LSD.
I go to Shambhala and they do free drug testing. Every LSD I get, I get it tested. The Ehrlich reagent test turns purple for indoline structures and it’s so much easier to get LSD than the other LSD prodrugs that would cause this to be purple, like 1P-LSD, 1V-LSD, or 1B-LSD. Research from both DanceSafe and The Loop show that actual and pure LSD dominates over synthetics at music fests. I’d love to see your sources because I’m intrigued.
We had drug prevention class (as a project week) in high school. One street worker guy just informed us, what is commonly used and what these drugs do, their dangers and safety precautions, if we decide to take them anyways. That was way better, and more effective, than the “drugs are bad”-speech the cop gave the other day.
LSD was the only one, that sounded somewhat intriguing to me. Never tried it, because I’m worried about bad trips and possible permanent damage. What is your take on that?
I’d recommend doing research before taking psychedelics. Erowid is still a great source.
The common phrase is " set and setting " and its true. If you’re in a comfortable and familiar surrounding and your headspace is good, you will probably have a decent trip. Many times there will be a difficult period during the trip and that is part of the experience.
I’d also recommend mushrooms " psilocybin" as that is one of my favorites.
Also LSD last a long time, I love it but plan accordingly.
Your perspective kind of reaffirms what I’ve heard about drug use in general from a plant-pharmacologist I once met on field trip in Central Asia. She pointed out, that drugs used to be tied into cultural practices and rituals, that also kept them in a specific setting and for specific purposes and attributed a lot of the problems to the mindless consumption we have today.
You also reaffirmed, that I’m better off abstaining from psychedelics, since I’m the antithesis to having a “good headspace”. And I’d be pretty worried about what they could set loose.
A friend of mine kept telling me you couldn’t find lsd anymore so I looked it up. There was a mass testing done a few years back that wanted to see what people were really buying when they bought lsd and it turned out it was almost all pure lsd and within expected dose.
By that standard pretty much everything is “partially” natural. You’re almost always going to have at least one starting material that was derived from a plant or other natural product.
Lysergic acid diethylamide, commonly known as LSD (from German Lysergsäurediethylamid) and by the nicknames acid and Lucy, is a semisynthetic psychedelic drug derived from ergot, known for its potent psychological effects.
I am an organic chemist working with the synthesis of natural products. I don’t think it’s common for chemists within this field to refer to chemicals that have undergone several addition steps as “natural”, and certainly not when communicating with non-chemists.
Note that the term “natural product” has very precise meaning in chemistry, which is different from what non-chemists would intuit. I would normally not use that term when talking to non-chemists.

Its real. This isn’t 2009-2014 anymore. People have test kits at festivals too that will test what you’ve acquired for free.
I’ve been taking psychedelics for almost 20 years now.
I’m unsure where your statistics is coming from.
The niche bass music scene is flooded with real dose.
Basshead?
Most certainly. I love to dance and listen to bass music of all genres.
I couldn’t make infrasound the past two years but that is normally what I look forward to twice a year.

Is LSD not considered a synthetic?
partially

Bring that up with chemistry, it’s their term.
