    Probably not.

    “Eight individuals who had accidentally consumed an exceedingly high amount of LSD, mistaking it for cocaine, and had gastric levels of 1,000–7,000 μg/100 mL LSD tartrate and blood plasma levels up to 26 μg/mL, had suffered from comatose states, vomiting, respiratory problems, hyperthermia, and light gastrointestinal bleeding; however, all of them survived without residual effects upon hospital intervention.[7][109]” - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LSD

    I don’t actually know how the blood plasma measurements work so take this with a huge grain of salt but assuming 5 liters of blood In the human body and half of it is plasma the person with 26 Ug/mL had about ~65mg of lsd in their blood. Which is like 650 standard 100ug doses.

      so the “can lsd kill” contunies to be a hypothetical question

      i’m so mad it’s illegal in most of the world. i’m starting to think everyone in governments of the world is either a coward who can’t face their own demons, or just copies US’s homework from back when the illusion of it being a competent nation was still there

      No, they had 650 doses in their blood, and up to 7mg per 100ml in their stomach (somehow? I don’t how one snorts lsd, let alone how that gets into your stomach, but sure).

      If that’s on an empty stomach, that’s another 70 doses since humans have about 100ml of stomach acid on an empty stomach. If that’s after a night of drinking, it could be a few dozen times more, because having 2 liters in your stomach isn’t weird.

      And that’s on top of what already passed.

        I don’t how one snorts lsd

        LSD is a crystalline solid under standard conditions.

        let alone how that gets into your stomach

        Nasal drip; snort too much to be easily absorbed by your sinuses, and it runs down your throat and into your stomach instead

        My best guess is unpleasant, the most ive done is 500 ug and I did not have a good time.

          Most I’ve done was 1200 and I had a wonderful time. When I was doing it every weekend, 200 was my “chill out and play a video game” dose, and 500 was my “I’m too fucked to focus on a game because the edges of the screen are wobbling. I’ll just zone out to some anime instead” dose. The tricky part about acid is that it’s entirely subjective.

            True on it being subjective, but if you were regularly using you probably had a significant tolerance, unless you were taking 2+ week breaks between each dose.
