LSD

From ecodelic triplit, the peyoteros’ sense of place, interspecies communication and animistic healing to ecocentric entheogenic rituals, psychedelic bioregionalism, biogenetic structuralist ecopsychology and transpersonal ecosophy – this special issue of the EJE explores the verdant intersection between neurobiology and botany, shamanism and animism, and psychology and ecology, fusing mind with Nature in a boiling cauldron full of entheogenic insight.

This paper investigates the relationship between psychoactive substances and so-called paranormal phenomena falling within the study of parapsychology. It is primarily concerned with extrasensory perception (ESP)—telepathy, precognition, and clairvoyance—as well as out-of-body experiences (OBEs) and near-death experiences (NDEs). Psychokinesis (PK), aura vision, encounter experiences, and sleep paralysis only make a very limited contribution to this review as they are seldom related to psychoactive drugs within the parapsychological literature. The paper borrows widely, but by no means exhaustively, from parapsychology as well as transpersonal studies, anthropology, ethnobotany, phytochemistry, psychiatry, psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and neurobiology, particularly neurochemistry. It is organized into neurochemical models of paranormal experience (section 1), field reports of intentional and spontaneous phenomena incorporating anthropological, historical and clinical cases, and personal accounts (section 2), surveys of paranormal belief and experience (section 3), experimental research (section 4), and a methodological critique of the experimental research with recommendations for further work (section 5).

Gli allucinogeni hanno come effetto principale quello di stravolgere le percezioni e indurre complesse alterazioni cognitive e umorali. Le sostanze in grado di alterare la percezione sensoriale sono prevalentemente considerate per il potenziale rischio di intossicazione mentre la loro capacità di indurre dipendenza è generalmente bassa. L'azione chimica di queste sostanze è influenzata dallo stato mentale della persona che le assume al punto che lo stato psicologico e i meccanismi legati all'aspettativa ne modulano gli effetti.

Beginning with his arrest for possession of marijuana December 24, 1965, Dr. Timothy Leary became embroiled in a very public series of court cases that sought initially to utilize the Free Exercise Clause of the United States Constitution to challenge established United States drug laws regarding marijuana. Though Leary’s attempts at using the Free Exercise Clause were unsuccessful, his case was eventually heard by the United States Supreme Court, who, in 1969, found major elements of the 1937 Marihuana Tax Law unconstitutional and overturned Leary’s conviction. This chapter will trace evolution of Leary’s defense argument from one based on religious freedom to one based on due process and the Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination. Leary’s initial freedom of religion defense was based on the success of the Native American Church’s 1964 California State Supreme Court ruling that protected that group’s sacramental use of peyote within its religious ceremonies. This chapter will also describe how the success of Native American Church case led Leary to popularize and speak out in favor of small groups of psychedelic users establishing their own “official” religions. Leary followed his own advice by creating the League for Spiritual Discovery in 1966 and was seen as a religious leader by the founder of the Neo-American Church (another psychedelic quasireligion) as well. Seeing themselves as a persecuted people under legal attack for their spiritual and experimental practices, both the NeoAmerican Church and the League for Spiritual Discovery sought to emulate the Native American Church and establish legal protections for the use of illegal substances.

Psychedelic drugs are making a comeback. In the mid-twentieth century, scientists actively studied the potential of drugs like LSD and psilocybin for treating mental health problems. After a decades-long hiatus, researchers are once again testing how effective these drugs are in relieving symptoms for a wide variety of psychiatric conditions, from depression and obsessive–compulsive disorder to posttraumatic stress disorder and substance addiction. In Acid Revival, Danielle Giffort examines how this new generation of researchers and their allies are working to rehabilitate psychedelic drugs and to usher in a new era of psychedelic medicine.

As this team of researchers and mental health professionals revive the field of psychedelic science, they are haunted by the past and by one person in particular: psychedelic evangelist Timothy Leary. Drawing on extensive archival research and interviews with people working on scientific psychedelia, Giffort shows how today’s researchers tell stories about Leary as an “impure” scientist and perform his antithesis to address a series of lingering dilemmas that threaten to rupture their budding legitimacy. Acid Revival presents new information about the so-called psychedelic renaissance and highlights the cultural work involved with the reassembly of dormant areas of medical science.

This colorful and accessible history of the rise, fall, and reemergence of psychedelic medicine is infused with intriguing narratives and personalities—a story for popular science aficionados as well as for scholars of the history of science and medicine.

Lysosomal Storage Disease (LSD) is a genetic disease where enzymse in lysosom ae absent, so unwanted material will acumulate inside the lysosome. LSD as a genetic disease now in Indonesia is unpopular. Some people don't know about it because limited information they accept.

Основната тема на овој труд е феноменот на наркоманијата како еден вид од мноштвото девијантни однесувања.  Поимот на наркоманијата е тесно поврзан со поимот на дрогата и наркотиците воопшто. Според дефиницијата за наркоманија, дадена од Светската здравствена организација, произлегува дека појавата на наркоманија произлегува од употребата на дрога и наркотици. 
Самиот термин дрога може да се разбере во поширока смисла, подразбирајќи супстанци од нелегална, но и од легална употреба, во рамките на фармацевтските индустрии. Потеклото на самиот збор “дрога” сеуште не е со сигурност утврдено, но се смета дека потекнува од арапскиот јазик, каде, како кованица од два збора означува лековито средство.

Is the "Woodstock generation" and its doings a factor in comprehending prophecy? Before one writes that off as but another flake view, consider that the word "sorceries" (Greek, pharmakeia) and its cognates are spoken of four times in the Book of Revelation, and not without reason. The drugs used at that time fell into a certain class, and they had a profound affect within the collective consciousness of humankind through the opening of an inter-dimensional gateway to the demonic realm, and that on a global scale.

The modified idealist (or eclectic) hermeneutic of Amillennialism isn't "standardized", that is, it remains—as its name indicates—open to modification, and this paper suggests the need for such.

This seeks to bring clarity to a field of vision that is cloudy, and understanding so that we may know—in general—about where we are, and how to prepare ourselves spiritually, as well as perceiving the causes for the escalating deterioration of our world.

En el siguiente trabajo vamos a tratar de entender el surgimiento del movimiento hippie en Estados Unidos, concretamente en la década de los sesenta, la cual fue el apogeo y al mismo tiempo el fin de este movimiento.
Estudiaremos los motivos de su aparición en la sociedad del momento y sus influencias de la sociedad de posguerra, sobre todo la Generación Beat. Además, destacamos la importancia de las drogas como la marihuana y, especialmente las nuevas drogas psicodélicas como el LDS que irrumpen en la década.
En cuanto a la política, analizaremos cómo los hippies resultan ser apolíticos a excepción de aquellos relacionados con el movimiento pacifista surgido a partir de la Guerra de Vietnam y los Yippies, la facción hippie revolucionaria.
La música también tiene una gran importancia en la época y en el movimiento hippie, adoptando su estética.

El objeto de estudio de este trabajo es el Arte Psicodélico, más concretamente el diseño gráfico -los carteles de conciertos y carátulas de discos- asociado a los sonidos del llamado rock ácido o rock psicodélico de los años sesenta. La psicodelia -el uso de drogas alucinógenas- surge a mediados de esa década en Estados Unidos como una de las facetas de la contracultura hippie, y se extiende luego al Reino Unido, donde se enmarca dentro del fenómeno conocido como “Swinging London”. 

El término psiquedélico fue acuñado por el cientifico Humphrey Osmond en 1957 y significa “manifestación del alma o de la mente”. Será un adjetivo que se aplique a aquellas obras inspiradas en, o relacionadas con, la experiencia producida por el uso de drogas alucinógenas, como el rock psicodélico. Era un sonido totalmente nuevo, que desafiaba la estructura básica de la canción pop y empleaba instrumentos nunca antes utilizados. Este tipo de música induce un cambio en la representación visual de la industria musical, como se demuestra estudiando las carátulas de discos y los carteles para conciertos: convertidos en materiales de creación artística, se vive un nuevo entendimiento de estos objetos, y su importancia ha ido creciendo desde entonces. Este trabajo estudia la evolución estética del diseño gráfico musical de la década de los cincuenta a la década de los sesenta, poniéndolo en relación con un contexto histórico muy especial y con el surgimiento de una música radicalmente nueva.

El desarrollo en la creación de pósters para los conciertos es comparable a la época del modernismo. El póster deja de ser funcional, casi contradiciendo su propia razón de ser: ya no solo debe aportar información sobre el grupo, el lugar y la fecha de un evento musical, sino que se presenta como un lienzo en el que distribuir dicha información con un lenguaje completamente nuevo, a veces indescifrable, inspirado en el tipo de música que se va a escuchar en el concierto. Los carteles se conforman a partir de formas suntuosas de influencia modernista con una imagineria onírica, como influjo del surrealismo. Las formas se fusionan con las nuevas tipografías y se desenvuelven por el espacio de manera orgánica, con colores vivos y contrastados. Como artistas psicodélicos americanos destacan los conocidos como “The Big Five”: Wes Wilson, Alton Kelley, Stanley Mouse, Víctor Moscoso y Rick Griffin. En Inglaterra la producción más importante fue la de Michael English y Nigel Waymouth como colectivo “Hapshash and the Coloured Coat” y la de Martin Sharp.

La revolución del póster pronto influye en el desarrollo de las carátulas. En los años cincuenta la cubierta de un disco solía contentarse con ofrecer una fotografía del artista muy sobria y su nombre con una tipografía muy simple. En los años sesenta hay un cambio sustancial con los avances tecnológicos y el influjo de las visiones del LSD. Formalmente en estos diseños encontramos influencias de la fotografía de las vanguardias o la cartelería de la secesión vienesa. La carátula adquiere una importancia que no había tenido nunca antes y empieza a ser realizada por pintores y diseñadores con conciencia artística.

This study will investigate the process of how use of the substance lysergic acid diethylamide–25 (LSD) became defined as socially unacceptable. It will investigate whether the characteristics attributed to it are an accurate reflection of the properties of the drug, or whether they have been socially constructed as a social problem. The study will begin by looking at the theories of social constructionism, followed by a brief history of LSD, including its medical, non-medical and recreational uses, and a discussion of the key figures involved in the sub-culture that developed. It will then look at the sociological and psychological implications of widespread use of LSD, both in terms of how they were socially constructed and how they contributed to its perception as a dangerous and controversial drug. Finally there will be a critical analysis of the development of this perception in terms of the construction of social problems.

An extended review and discussion of Ernst Jünger’s short novel ‘Besuch auf Godenholm’ published in German in 1952 and published for the first time in English in February of 2015 as ‘Visit to Godenholm’ by Edda Publishing. The novel and my review will be of interest to all those concerned with the history of psychedelic cultures, not least because it contains a very early and expansive literary account of the LSD experience. Although the psychedelic sequence in the novel is not attributed to the effects of a drug, the account is based on one of the early LSD sessions that the prominent German author Jünger shared with Albert Hofmann, as attested in Hofmann’s ‘LSD my Problem Child’. The potential for the use of LSD as an aid in psychotherapy was considered as early as 1950 and Jünger’s novel significantly concerns the healing of psychological trauma, but in the setting of an esoteric initiation under the guidance of a formidable magus named Schwarzenberg. The events in the novel set in the immediate aftermath of World War Two are framed in terms of Nordic mythology. Jünger, who died aged 102 in February 1998, had experimented with psychoactive drugs throughout his adult life. Published in Psychedelic Press UK Journal, 2015, Volume III,

Il cervello è sicuramente, insieme al cuore, l'organo che più è protagonista del nostro essere, del nostro sentire, della nostra relazione col mondo, con gli altri esseri viventi, con le persone che incontreremo nel cammino della nostra vita ed in particolare della relazione con noi stessi.

Nelle discoteche le droghe diffuse sono varie ed il loro consumo è subordinato al tipo di esperienza sensoriale-sociale che si vuole provare: passiamo da droghe che stimolano il ballo da “branco famelico” a quelle per vivere esperienze da solitario “mistico illuminato”, oppure droghe che stimolano la relazione sociale, aumentano la capacità comunicativa e fanno cadere timidezza e alcune anche l'inibizione sessuale o aumentando sensazioni di piacere e potere... Gli effetti sono in continua evoluzione come le droghe stesse e il panorama di discussione è davvero vastissimo, ma sicuramente è l' LSD, come già accennato, la droga considerata più dannosa per le cellule neurali, anche alla prima esperienza.
Con questa tesina ho perciò intenzione di analizzare questa sostanza e di riportare in maniera semplice ed intuitiva i suoi effetti fisici, psicologici e sociali per mettere in guardia i giovani e i loro genitori dal suo uso e dalla sua sottovalutazione e con essa dall'uso e sottovalutazione di qualsiasi tipo di droga, perché non esiste nessuna droga buona, innocua o utile: ognuna di esse è nemica del nostro corpo, del nostro cervello, del nostro spirito, della nostra anima...della nostra vita e vitalità.

En el año 1962 apareció en Estados Unidos publicada “Alguien Voló Sobre El Nido Del Cuco”, novela contracultural escrita por Ken Kesey, uno de los escritores que más experimentó con drogas en la época psicodélica y Hippie, en especial con el LSD. El libro posee apuntes autobiográficos ya que Kesey trabajó durante un tiempo en un manicomioEn la novela, narrada en primera persona por un paciente llamado Chief Bromden, la representación simbólica se expone en la presencia de un personaje femenino autoritario (figura de la madre castradora) que encuentra posiciones rebeldes en un interno de nombre Randle P. McMurphy.

Aunque gratuita en algunos efectos narrativos de su tiempo (que influyó a otros autores, como Hunter S. Thompson o Chuck Palahniuk), la novela es un ejemplo válido de posiciones críticas contra los excesos autoritarios que coartan y manipulan, limitando las voluntades naturales de forma artificial, y prohibiendo por decreto cualquier mínima determinación y/o espacio vital individual.

This thesis sets out to explore the interconnections between psychedelic experience and the mental health care prescribed for psychotropic drug users. This aim in mind, I present an approach to mental health intervention, Autonomous Medication Management (AMM), that values the experience of psychotropic drug users. The problem examined in this research emerges as an off-axis variant of AMM, highlighting the analysis of its implications as a methodological procedure to extract the excess personalization involved in writing the outside-the-text of the research – i.e. the material usually excluded from official scientific publications. To help write this outside-the-text, various tools are introduced as stylistic resources consonant with the material under examination, such as Mikhail Bakhtin’s free indirect discourse, and the accelerated rhythms, jumps, cuts and foldings of time inherited from the beat writers, in particular the kind found in the routines invented by William Burroughs. The thesis describes psychedelic experiences from the first synthesis of LSD-25 in 1938 to scientific, military, clinical, mystic, artistic and politico-cultural research, focusing especially on acid rock, or psychedelic rock. Here I turn to the ideas of Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner and Richard Alpert on both the influence of personal dispositions (set) and environmental dispositions (setting) and the differentiation of three phases (or bardos) in psychedelic experience, derived from the Tibetan Book of the Dead: a first phase of complete, pre-reflexive transcendence, with no distinction between outside and inside (beyond spacetime, language and self); a second phase, controlled by the ego, involving hallucinatory and delirious attempts to delimit identity boundaries; and finally a period of return to the game of everyday reality and the distinctions of outside and inside, but now with more flexible, stretched and expanded boundaries. Next I present the off-axis variant of the field research conducted in a Psychosocial Care Centre (CAPS) between March and November 2011. In this field research, we experienced the action of three vectors, each producing distinct movements of subjectification: a vector of exclusion, producing closures; a vector of inclusion, producing openings; and a vector of repulsion, producing paranoia, which served to emphasize the challenges involved in the inclusion of the outside. In reaching this conclusion, the thesis anticipates that the sharing of a psychedelic sensibility can assist in the aesthetic-political training of workers in the mental health field.

Cette thèse propose articuler l'expérience psychédélique au soin des utilisateurs de médicaments psychotropes prescrits dans le domaine de la santé mentale. À cette fin, nous présente la Gestion Autonome de la Médication (GAM), une approche d'intervention en santé mentale fondé sur la valorisation de l' expérience des utilisateurs de substances psychotropes. Le problème de cette recherche émerge comme hors-axe du GAM, avec l'accent mis sur l'analyse des implications, procédure méthodologique pour enlever l'excédent de personnalité dans la rédaction du hors-texte de la recherche, c'est-à-dire le matériau habituellement exclus
des publications scientifiques officielles. Pour aider à la rédaction de ce hors-texte, comme caractéristiques stylistiques compatible avec le matériau travaillé, tels que le discours indirect libre, Mikhaïl Bakhtine, et les rythmes accélérés, houblon, coupures et pliant dans le temps,
héritage des artistes beat, surtout comme utilisé dans lês routines – invention littéraire de William Burroughs. La thèse fait une présentation de l'expérience psychédélique, depuis la première synthèse du LSD-25, en 1938, en passant par la recherche scientifique, militaires, cliniques, mystique, artistique, culturelle et politique, avec une attention particulière aux acid rock, ou rock psychédélique, et dês considérations de Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner et
Richard Alpert tant en ce qui concerne l'influence des dispositions personnelles (set) et de l'environnement (setting) comme de la distinction, dans l'expérience psychédélique, de trois phases (ou bardos), basé sur le Livre Tibétain des Morts, qui nous considérons comme une
première étape de la transcendance complète, pré-réflectif, sans aucune distinction entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur (en plus de l'espace-temps, de la langue et de lui-même) un deuxième, de contrôle égoïque, ce qui implique tentatives hallucinatoires et délirantes pour délimiter les frontières de l'identité; enfin, une période de récupération de la réalité du jeu de routine, les distinctions entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur, mais avec des limites plus allongées, flexibles et étendues. Puis, nous présentons le champ de recherche menée dans un Psychosociale Care Center (CAPS), entre Mars et Novembre 2011. Dans le domaine de recherche, nous avons
essayés l'action de trois vecteurs, produisant des mouvements distincts de la subjectivité: un vecteur d'exclusion, producteur de la clôture; l'un de l'inclusion, producteur d'ouverture; et un vecteur de refoulement, produisant des paranoïa, qui nous a permis de souligner le caractère challengeur qu'implique l'inclusion de l'hors. Avec cela, nous avons atteint notre objectif, dans l'espoir que le partage d'une sensibilité psychédélique aide à l’éducation esthétique et politique des travailleurs dans le domaine de la santé mentale.

A presente tese propõe articular a experiência psicodélica ao cuidado de usuários de psicotrópicos prescritos em saúde mental. Para tanto, apresentamos a Gestão Autônoma da Medicação (GAM), uma abordagem de intervenção em saúde mental pautada na valorização da experiência dos usuários de psicotrópicos. O problema da presente pesquisa emerge como fora-eixo da GAM, dando relevo à análise de implicações, procedimento metodológico para extrair o excesso de pessoalidade na redação do fora-texto da pesquisa, ou seja, o material usualmente excluído das publicações científicas oficiais. Para auxiliar na redação desse  foratexto, algumas ferramentas são introduzidas como recursos estilísticos consistentes com o material trabalhado, tal como o discurso indireto livre, de Mikhail Bakhtin, e os ritmos acelerados, saltos, cortes e dobraduras do tempo, herdados dos artistas beat, sobretudo como utilizados nas rotinas – invenção literária de William Burroughs. A tese faz uma apresentação da experiência psicodélica, desde a primeira síntese do LSD-25, em 1938, passando por pesquisas científicas, militares, clínicas, místicas, artísticas e político-culturais, com especial atenção ao acid rock, ou rock psicodélico, e às considerações de Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner e Richard Alpert no que diz respeito tanto à influência das disposições pessoais (set) e ambientais (setting) quanto à distinção, na experiência psicodélica, de três fases (ou bardos), baseadas no Livro Tibetano dos Mortos, que entendemos como uma primeira fase de transcendência completa, prerreflexiva, sem qualquer distinção entre dentro e fora (para além do espaço-tempo, da linguagem e de si); uma segunda, de controle egoico, que envolve tentativas alucinantes e delirantes de demarcação de limites identitários; por fim, um período de retorno ao jogo da realidade rotineiro, das distinções entre dentro e fora, mas com limites mais alongados, flexíveis e expandidos. Em seguida, apresentamos o fora-eixo da pesquisa de campo realizada em um Centro de Atenção Psicossocial (CAPS), entre março e novembro de 2011. Na pesquisa de campo, experimentamos a ação de três vetores, produzindo distintos movimentos de subjetivação: um vetor de exclusão, produtor de fechamento; um de inclusão, produtor de abertura; e um vetor de repulsão, produzindo paranoia, que serviu-nos para ressaltar o caráter desafiante que envolve a inclusão do fora. Com isso, cumprimos nosso objetivo, na expectativa de que a partilha de uma sensibilidade psicodélica auxilie na formação estético-política de trabalhadores do campo da saúde mental.

A novel published in 1933, describes the isolation of a hallucinogenic drug from an ergot-type fungus. It remarkably predates the discovery the hallucinogenic properties of the ergot-derived alkaloid lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) by ten years. It also identifies ergot as the secret psychoactive sacrament of the ancient mysteries forty years before this hypothesis became a matter of academic and scientific investigation. In the novel, a central character plans to use an ergot derived drug as an agent of popular religious renewal, prefiguring the New Age religious revival initiated by the popular use of LSD. The story involves the mass testing of a hallucinogenic drug on the unsuspecting inhabitants of an isolated village almost twenty years before the Pont St Esprit incident of 1951, which has been ascribed to the CIA's plans for experimental dosing of unsuspecting civilians with psychoactive drugs. This article investigates how the author could have managed to foresee these future events in such prophetic detail and reveals the sources that were available. In this article the history of psychoactive drugs is set in the context of the political, scientific, literary, and philosophical culture of the interwar period and shows that the cultural history of psychoactive drugs is enhanced by such context.

This is the view on tripping you have been looking for. Not only describing the journey, but discussing the process, the psychological issues, the dangers, offering practical help, also for sitters and therapists, like a toolbox. Based on extensive personal and group setting experience, also with my friends like Albert, Hofmann, Terence McKenna, Timothy Leary, John Perry Barlow, Sasha Shulgin, and many other pioneers and luminaries.
It offers guidelines and unique insights and comparative data about ritual use of psychedelics, for therapy or self-discovery, with a critical view concerning recreational use, ayahasca tourism. It offers unique models, graphs and a structure for effective use of substances. Also a broad view on potential future use, legality and research possibilities.
A critical intruduction to responsible and transformational use of psychedelics, for first time users, experienced travellers, sitters and therapeutic purposes. The insights and suggestions are in many ways unconventional and not what the "official" research suggest, but more holistic, tackling issues like sex and body work, the dangers of group sessions and the general adverse commercialization of the whole scene. The various substances are covered, but also new approaches like the use of Virtual Reality in or connected to psychedelic sessions.
