As someone who quit drinking alcohol quite a long time ago ( which I am quite sure is why I am alive today) I agree that one of the "side affects" of LSD is that it helps one to come to the realization that they are killing themselves from a bad habit. I cannot say that it killed my desire to drink, and I did drink for a while after an experience with what might have been LSD. An interesting historic tidbit is that the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous was introduced to LSD and thought it was a tremendous tool to fight Alcoholism. By that time a foundation had sprung up around AA, and the board members urged Bill Wilson not to proselytize on the subject less it incur bad publicity for the organization( one of their traditions is to avoid controversy on outside subjects) Since the name of Bill Wilson was synonymous with AA he agreed to quit talking on the subject.
Months after dosing with LSD drinking alcohol has the appeal of drinking department store paint thinner. It works. It's sad that people are scared to associate with it due to its demonization.
