I was not aware LSD had any neurotoxicity associated with it. Are you 
alluding to serotonin syndrome?

"Details of the events leading up to Olson's suicide remained 
confidential, primarily due to the fact that agents working under the 
MK-ULTRA program were preparing to launch into the next phase of LSD 
testing: the administration of LSD to unwitting American citizens in 
real-life settings and situations."

This is deplorable behavior. It's one thing to take a mind-altering 
chemical willingly, with knowledge of a possible outcome. To 
surreptitiously dose people is another thing entirely. That's beyond 
unethical. They continued along this path after a tragedy. This should 
have stopped them. I'm sure any researcher with a conscience during that 
time was replaced, or else it would not have continued.

For migraines, maybe. I think a higher dosage may be needed if you 
wanted to say, heal from a traumatic event, and needed to open up a part 
of your psyche. Optimally this should be done in a therapeutic setting 
under trained professionals. Under the current system, however, people 
must resort to using it under less than ideal circumstances.

Less bad if the best migraine treatments were legally available, I'm sure!
