So it seems that young professionals are dropping microdoses of LSD and finding that they are increasingly productive and happier. The doses range around 10-15 micrograms, (about 1/10th of what is considered a normal dose to “trip”) and people reportedly are able to concentrate better, have a better outlook toward their crappy jobs and just in general feels better. I believe it. Frankly, what is the difference between taking a small hit of acid and taking your regular prescribed dose of Abilify or Prozac? The SSRI drugs like Zoloft, Paxil and Lexapro all increase circulating brain concentrations of serotonin and so does LSD. It’s not surprising that people feel better and happier and more satisfied with their work and lives while taking LSD. Years ago I was speaking at a high school to a class full of 9th graders and I mentioned how drugs like LSD and the other psychedelics might open doors in your mind that weren’t meant to be opened. One of the students said “Then why are they there?” I signed her up as a Safety Ranger on the spot!
