Houston Drug Charge Lawyer, Hallucinogen Addiction

The abuse of hallucinogens in the United States
received much public attention in the 1960s and
1970s. A subsequent decline in their use in the
1980s may be attributed to real or perceived
hazards associated with taking these drugs.

However, a resurgence of the use of
hallucinogens is cause for concern. According to
the 2003 Monitoring the Future Study, 10.6
percent of 12th graders reported hallucinogenic
use in their lifetime. According to the 2003
National Survey on Drug Use and Health,
approximately 1 million Americans were current
hallucinogen users. Hallucinogenic mushrooms,
LSD, and MDMA are popular among junior and
senior high school students who use
hallucinogens.

There is a considerable body of literature that
links the use of some of the hallucinogenic
substances to neuronal damage in animals, and
recent data support that some hallucinogens are
neurotoxic to humans. However, the most
common danger of hallucinogen use is impaired
judgment that often leads to rash decisions and
accidents.
