Question by soccer dork: If LSD is not addictive how do you develop tolerance for it?
Best answer:
Answer by l’il mama
With any drug that is taken too much you develop a tolerence to it so you try to feel the same high as the first time you did it. Addiction happens when you crave the drug and LSD does not have the addictive qualities such as coke or heroin because it is a psychedelic and not amphetimine or an opiate. Its just a different type of drug. Not all drugs are addictive, but most are.

First of all, there is no longer any LSD; pure and undiluted LSD.
For the pure “drug” there was no physical addiction, but there was the chance of a powerful emotional addiction. Also, for pure LSD, there is no tolerance level that decreases its effects.
For decades, what is called LSD is a mixture of incomplete, adulterated LSD plus added chemicals and drugs and other substances.
People thinking they are taking pure LSD are actually taking a “drug” that could contain more than ten or twenty other substances; probably even more. Many of the additives can be very harmful. It is common for the “LSD” to be “spiked” with various animal tranquilizers. Others may be experimental drugs with unknown side-effects.
Today’s “LSD” will give people a trip. but it is nothing like the pure LSD of the past. You will go somewhere, but you will not know where you’ll go or what is in what you’ve ingested. Don’t ever trust anyone who says, “This is the pure thing.” They either don’t know or they are lying. The days of purity have long passed.
By the way, the same is true of “imported” marijuana, which has long been “sprayed” with narcotics to give it an extra “kick” or a “relax-reaction.” Like supermarket vegetables, it is far from being chemical-free.
So make your choices. Realise that nothing is harmless; even water – in certain quantities- can kill. If you’re going to play the dangerous game of drugs, be aware that you are playing Russian Roulette.
Be careful and don’t take anything to impress anyone else or to be cool. If you want to experiment, you will. No one can stop anyone whose mind is made up. But if you do, do it with your eyes open. It’s illegal and you can get busted. Do it with your eyes open; it isn’t harmless. Do it with your eyes open.
LSD and other psychedelics, etc, will not change your life for the better. You won’t be a better artist, a smarter lawyer, a more successful business leader. It’s not a magic cure-all. It doesn’t bring enlightenment. It will get you high, no doubt. But there’s always the real chance it will get you “low.” Keep your eyes open; make your own choice.
