    I'm doing a research paper due at the end of the semester for one of my urban studies class and I was wondering if you guys can help me out a little.

    If you have tried LSD can you please answer these questions? Feel free to omit any question and answer only part of them if you choose. Thanks.

    1.What is your Age and Sex?

    2.What are 3 of you favorite bands?

    3.If you work, what do you do. If you are in or attended college what did you study?

    4. What is the sub-culture, group or religion you identify with the most?

    5.List in the order you attend the most: Art show, music show, church, comedy show, sporting event, festival, political gathering, dance club

    6. Do you smoke marijuana, cigarettes, both or none?

    7. How many drinks do you have during your average week?

    8. Have you tried any other Hallucinogens or related drugs, if so which ones?

    9. Do you believe people should have the right to choose to use "drugs"?

    10. Did you learn from your LSD experience?

    11. Were you eager to talk about your experience afterwards?

    12. Is LSD a substance you believe could help many conflicted people?


    Thanks so much

    12. If LSD is anything like LSA(they are related of course) then yes, you can learn many things and better yourself

    Hope you can still use mine even though they are different substances.

    If you have tried LSD can you please answer these questions? Feel free to omit any question and answer only part of them if you choose. Thanks.

    When we did it??? or now? I haven't done it in 22 years...so I suppose I can answer for back then...but things are obviously quite a bit different now. I think I'll answer for both.

    ==========

    1.What is your Age and Sex? 18 female (I'm a 40-something now)

    2.What are 3 of you favorite bands?
    The Cure, The Police, Pink Floyd (I don't really have favorites anymore. I listen to Joni Mitchell, James Taylor etc.)

    3.If you work, what do you do. If you are in or attended college what did you study? Was working in a restaurant...now I am an attorney

    4. What is the sub-culture, group or religion you identify with the most?
    No religion, hung out with the alternative crowd. And now? who knows...

    5.List in the order you attend the most: Art show, music show, church, comedy show, sporting event, festival, political gathering, dance club


    Music show, festival, dance club, art shows...now? church, festival, art, music, politics

    6. Do you smoke marijuana, cigarettes, both or none?


    Yes, both...now, neither.

    7. How many drinks do you have during your average week?

    five to ten...now, maybe one every other week or so.

    8. Have you tried any other Hallucinogens or related drugs, if so which ones?


    Yes, shrooms, marijuana, meth, cocaine...and now? Nothing.

    9. Do you believe people should have the right to choose to use "drugs"?

    undecided on this one...still undecided

    10. Did you learn from your LSD experience?


    I have not done a drug in 22 years. I don't think I learned anything. It took my life on a path of nothingness. I am quite happy to be where I am today, and I think I would have arrived here a lot faster without the drugs of my youth...however, I am glad I had the experience.

    11. Were you eager to talk about your experience afterwards?


    Everyone I was hanging with was doing acid. It was soooooooooo easy to get, it was being handed out like candy. We did it almost every night for an entire summer. I don't know if we talked about it after- we just did it some more.

    12. Is LSD a substance you believe could help many conflicted people?

    I don't think LSD would help anyone who is conflicted. I think you bring into the experience what you already are.

    unless LSD has drastically changed, or people have drastically changed, judging from their behavior I would guess that for the most part people do not take LSD.

    I'm a 21 year old male. I enjoy multiple types of music, but my 3 favorite band would be The Grateful Dead, Phish, and the Natural Breakdown. I've had a bunch of jobs, but I'm currently unemployed, which is why I'm broke. My favorite of those jobs was pizza delivery, it is good money. My ideal job would be organic farming. I attended college for a year before i dropped out, i majored in liberal arts.

    I identify with whatever subculture or religion is the most open-minded. I attend a lot of concerts and music festivals every year, which is another reason I'm broke. I do not attend any of those other events you listed more than once a year. I do smoke marijuana, and i have never smoked a cigarette. I have never had a real drink of alcohol, but during the week i enjoy drinking green smoothies, distilled water, OJ, and lemonade. I have done several psychedelic drugs, some a lot more than others. My favorite psychedelic is LSD, followed by 2-ce, then mushrooms, mescaline.

    People do have the right to use drugs, the government just ignores that right and demonizes drug users. i believe all drugs should be legal and all drugs should be legal to use. I have learned so much more form LSD than i can even comprehend. A lot of the things Ive learned are subconscious. I really enjoy talking about psychedelic drugs, and my experiences on them. I do recommend LSD, but to who, i can not really say.

    12. Is LSD a substance you believe could help many conflicted people?
    I think it can help people who don't think they need help. To clarify, I was happy before I took L, but happier after. If someone has a major life problem, I dunno if taking L would be the best solution. With the right environment tho...

    2.Dont really listen to bands but dubstep producers would be: Reso, Caspa, Boxcutter

    3.Brick Paving

    4. Not sure. I dont think i really identify with any particular group

    5.List in the order you attend the most: Dance club then music show but only about once a month dont attend the other things.

    6. Used to smoke weed every day but have recently stoped

    7. i dont drink

    8. Mushrooms

    9. Yes

    10. I learnt a lot about myself and the world around me

    11. Yes but it is hard talking to people who about it who have no frame of reference to understand what im trying to tell them. or people who are strongly against drugs.

    12. It could help a lot of people but i have also seen people who cant handle the drug and dont deal with it very well. if the individual has a strong enough mind to accept lsd then it could have very significant benefits.

    1.26 Years old. Male.

    2.Pink Floyd, Depeche Mode, Three Days Grace

    3.A little to personal. Lets just say it involves electronics... the hardware side of technology.

    4. Huh?

    5.I only leave the house to go to the store or to take my kids to school.

    6. Currently No. I smoked marijuana and cigarettes daily for 3 years, but quite several years ago. I still occasionally enjoy a cig every once and awhile. Marijuana nowadays makes me too paranoid whenever I smoke, so I stay away from that.

    7. I drink way to much. Need to cut back.

    8. I've tried just about every hallucinogenic drug that I've managed to get my hands on. WAY to many to list. Current favorite is 2c-d.

    9. Yes, I believe people should have the right to use drugs.

    10. Yes, I've learned from every drug experience, including my lsd experiences.

    11. No, I like to keep my revelations and deep thoughts to myself.

    12. I believe LSD can truly help only a small percentage of people. Then there is a huge chunk of people who use it, but are not really "helped" by it... its just another drug they take. Then, there are some that should never take lsd, or atleast, learn to stay away after there first experience. It's definetly "not for everyone"

    Hello, i registered with the goal of filling your enquiry. Hope this helps.
    1. 34, male
    2. At this period i mainly listen to psychedelic trance - too hard to give three names
    3. I went to school to become a teacher and after that became computer scientist (system administration). But for now i'm without a job.
    4. Eeeuh... hippie ? :)
    5. Music show, art show, festival, and next i could say church as i really consider LSD in goa parties as being a kind of eucharist but i never attend a 'classic' church. Comedy shows would come next. Nothing to do with politics or sports or dance clubs.
    6. Both. I used to smoke a lot of marijuana, but LSD showed me that i would get much more of it smoking less. Now i still smoke marijuana but it's not an habit anymore.
    7. Don't know. I think an average wouldn't be interesting in my case : some weeks i don't drink at all, but sometimes when i'm with friends who drink a lot i can empty 20 cans on the night. But if i had to calculate the average, i would say maybe 10-20 cans of beer per week, week-end included.
    8. Mushrooms and salvia
    9. Yes, of course. I'm one of those who believe that psychedelic centers with competent employees to help people in their experiences should be available to anyone. But i'm much more involved with psychedelics than with other drugs.
    10. Sooooooo much ! LSD, my first psychedelic of choice, really changed my life and my way of seeing our world (but a long way had already been made with shrooms). But giving details would be too long for this thread. If you want more info, please pm. I really love to share that. Two or three hits of LSD have done much more good to me than two years of Prozac...
    11. Yes, a lot !
    12. Yes i believe it could. I believe psychedelics, and mainly LSD, could do a lot for individuals, but also to help saving the world. But it's sometimes hard to manage. Therefore i believe psychedelic centers should be available to anyone.

    (please excuse my baaaaad English but i hope it helps anyway :) )

    Most of the respondants seem to be too young to remember this ad, but the thread title reminded me of:

    "Hot Dogs!
    Armour Hot Dogs!
    What kind of kids eat Armour Hot Dogs?
    Fat kids, skinny kids, kids who climb on rocks
    Tough kids, sissy kids
    Even kids with chicken pox
    Love Hot Dogs!
    Armour Hot Dogs--
    The dogs kids love to bite!"

    i dont really have any "favorites" i listen to almost all genres of music except for rap and opera.

    i worked construction for the same company for 21 years and was recently laid off due to the housing crash.i am now devoting my time to our sustainability here on our farm.

    i dont really identify with any one sub culture. i find who i am relates to elements of many sub cultures and there is no one that has a greater influence on me than another.

    none of the above. if we do attend a event off the farm it would be a rainbow gathering.

    pot if its around and yes i smoke tobacco.

    i was a alcoholic for 20 years and have been sober for going on 2 years,so none.

    mushrooms,mescaline,DMT,MDA,MDMA,and a host of assorted analogs over the years. i should also say that i no longer partake in these pleasures as my body aint as young as it once was.

    i believe what people choose is there choice as long as it harms no one else but themselves.

    nothing. i dont look at LSD use as a learning experience..

    no thats not my nature.

    i think whatever a person believes will help them will. but its not because of the drug,its because of the power of positive thinking.. the placebo effect
