    1: The drug LSD-25. A gift from the gods which turns your brain inside out so that the innermost contents of your mind leak bizarrely into the world around you. An acid trip is a lot like an elaborate, extended waking dream which can sometimes turn into a nightmare without warning. Tripping on LSD is not about rainbow colors and being chased by flying pink elephants; it is a total elimination of preconceptions about the world and a profound distortion of reality which many casual users find too intense. Acid is extremely potent: a tiny dose of this drug can cause a life-altering experience. Depending on the dosage, you might expect things like getting lost in the curtains, seeing swarms of insects in the walls, or experiencing days between each minute of the clock.
