I'm one who abused LSD in my high school years (1973 to 1975) and a little in my adult years. The last use of this drug was once in the latter part of 1976 then last time was once in 1985. The heaviest use was as a 15 to 16 year old teen where it was literally every other day, at 17 maybe three times a month. Now at 50 years old I have a form of vertigo mostly. It’s a continuous internal feeling of dizziness with an occasional feeling of LSD, or the beginning stages of the drug, without the hallucination.
I am going through test with my Doctor but they are not sure, as yet, what’s causing this.
I'm wondering if there any medical knowledge of this being a result of long term abuse later in the life of an abuser?
