Unknown-dose "LSD" in the worst possible set/setting?

Do you really need a warning?

It might not have been proper LSD in the first place. There is synthetic LSA on the market, which gives LSD-type effects for 20-hours instead of the 8-hours of LSD, which has dramatically worse effects on both dopamine and dorepinephrine because of the long stimulation. The result is very bad trips with serious anxiety and paranoia.

The onset and return times do not match LSD. The author likely consumed an unknown dose of an unknown LSD-like research chemical.
If it's bitter, it's a spitter.
A large dose of LSD in the wrong setting: bad

Small dose in wrong setting: maybe not great but you'll be fine

Large dose in good setting: good
