In general, LSD is taken orally. Users either use droplets or place blotter paper underneath their tongue, then the drug absorbs into the bloodstream. In some rare instances, it is crushed into a powder and dissolved into a liquid. There are also reports of some users injecting this liquid directly into their bloodstream.
A popular new trend called microdosing is emerging, in which the user takes a small dose of a hallucinogen to experience positive effects. For example, a microdose of LSD supposedly causes a mood boost, enhanced creativity, and increased mental and physical stimulation. However, microdosing can be dangerous. Although the dose of LSD is very small, the chances of developing an addiction increase with any exposure to the drug.
