Yes, alcohol withdrawal is quite serious, especially when it progresses to DTs.
| quote: | Mortality/Morbidity
Despite appropriate treatment, the current mortality for patients with DTs ranges from 5-15%. Mortality was as high as 35% prior to the era of intensive care and advanced pharmacotherapy. The most common conditions leading to death in these patients are respiratory failure and cardiac arrhythmias. |

Because it's incredibly difficult to read between the lines. Are you really trying to say that 10 cigarettes is worse than 10 hits of X or LSD? Does that make any logical sense to you? |

| He's right about MDMA as long as you don't use it habitually and give your hypothalamus time to regenerate serotonin. |

The average person that has used LSD in his life probably suffers less damage than the paverage person that has smoked cigarettes. Furthermore I guarantee you tobacco is more harmful/costly to society as a whole than LSD. |

within the first 40 seconds they say "LSD is worse than Heroin".
:rolleyes:
so we lost Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix, Mitch Hedberg, etc to H....and Syd Barret to LSD, because of his psychiatric personal problems...ok. |
