Besides actual issues with mental health history, is there any way to know if someone will react this way to LSD? Set and setting may not be enough in these cases, it seems?
- staticautomatic 7y agoAlways carry benzos in case of bad trip.
- hi5eyes 7y agobenzos and a trip sitter would've avoided some of this at least could've calmed him down
- staticautomatic 7y agoIdk what the sitter situation was but it sounds like this got out of hand pretty fast. If they couldn't calm him I imagine the best they could do is pin him down and tie him up.
- chriscappuccio 7y agoMaybe fast acting elephant tranquilizer.
- lanrh1836 7y agoAssuming this was pure LSD, 4 full doses is way too much. It leads me wonder if he knew what we was getting into ahead of time or if he was peer pressured and did not have much experience. The trial will be interesting here. I think his best defense is that he had no clue what a safe dose was and had 0 control over his own actions while he did what he did.
- ne9xt 7y agoOne would likely want to be unafraid of letting go. After a heroic dose like that, it's possible he had some things on his mind and the chemical inescapably brought these things to the forefront of his attention.

- copperx 7y agoWell, once you see his photo, you'll understand. He was a C# enthusiast. I don't think that goes well with LSD.
