Lysergic acid diethylamide, also known as LSD, has been used recreationally and therapeutically and has been adored by millions ever since the 1950s. LSD is one of the safest drugs there is; it has an incredibly high LD50 at 12,000 micrograms which is 120 times the normal dose of LSD. Alcohol is responsible for roughly 88,000 deaths each year in the United States alone and yet it remains perfectly legal and unscheduled while LSD, a drug which has never killed anyone before, remains on Schedule I even though it has been proven to have therapeutic and medicinal benefits such as helping PTSD, depression, anxiety, and alcoholism according to John Hopkins University. By definition LSD should be rescheduled.
