Placentia, California Drug Rehab Programs

LSD is often viewed as a mind-expanding substance, but its effects can be debilitating for certain users. Many people have taken LSD at parties and dance clubs, usually with the intention of enhancing the sensory euphoria brought on by the music, lights and drinks at such events. Unfortunately, the drug can trigger panic attacks, and it even provokes long-term psychosis in certain individuals.

According to the Drug Enforcement Administration, LSD production is largely centered in northern California, along with areas of the Midwest. From these areas, it then gets dispensed to raves and rock concerts around the country. Despite the long and complex process involved in LSD manufacturing, the drug continues to thrive amongst young adults, well past its initial 1960s' heyday.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse has observed the following conditions in users of LSD:
