200ug are a pretty high dose[1], 10 to 20 times the threshold and your friend's reaction is not really typical even for a bad trip: In most cases people just want to reduce the amount of auditory or visual input they have to process when it is too much - so nothing like starting a fire alarm. Are you sure it was LSD? [1] https://erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_dose.shtml https://erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd_dose.shtml

200ug is not high...? Starting a fire alarm etc. just means the guy was using the reduced inhibition to go ballastic. Just stupid really. Don't go blame the stuff for that. >400 is high. up to 150/200 is low - can function normally. between 200/400 is hard to function normally. above 400 you really kinda can't, best just lie down and let the colors wash over.

  High for what barrier? 200µg is certainly enough to perceive the world radically differently—so, very high to a sober person. However, it's very low on the scale of LSD you can safely ingest. Either way, the dude had more going on than an acid trip that day.

I share your skepticism. Part of the problem with the War on Drugs is that forcing science underground basically puts us in a medieval situation, where we have to rely on word of mouth and personal experiences. It doesn't sound like LSD to me either, but all I can say for sure is that I took a whole bunch of stuff which people told me was LSD, back in the day, and that it affected me differently. edit: skepticism significantly increased, now that people are talking about LSD causing reduced inhibitions. seen and experienced extraordinary counterexamples. it's not alcohol, folks.

It was bought off of the dark web with a seller with a very high rating, and was taken by multiple other friends who had a true LSD experience. He was the only one who had a "crazy" reaction. I'm hundred percent sure it was LSD. Talking to him after the event, I remember him saying that he believed he could do anything. Mind you, watching him felt like seeing a toddler in a grown mans body. I'm not sure if LSD necessarily lowers inhibition, but it did seem to confirm that different brain chemistries exist.
