LSD RESEARCH IN THE 1950s
A trip down memory lane
Dr. Sidney Cohen interviews a research subject and administers LSD to her at the Los Angeles Veterans Administration Hospital.
Here is part of an interview with a subject just before LSD is to be administered.
Housewife: Source: LYBIO.net
My husband is an employee here at the D.A. And he told me that they were looking for normal people, and I volunteered.
Dr Cohen:
I see, do you feel you are normal?
Housewife:
I hope I´m normal, I think so.
Dr Cohen:
Well, a little while back you took quite a series of psychological tests, and I can assure you that you are a very stable and well balance person, as a result of the test. And, how do you feel about coming here and drinking this strange material?
Housewife:
Well… I´m a little …I’m a little nervous, perhaps
Dr Cohen:
Well, I think that’s normal. Well, I think it’s time for you to have your lisergic acid. Drink this down and we’ll be back after awhile and see how you’re doing.
Voice Over:
This is a glass of water. Colorless, tasteless, it contains one hundred gamma of LSD 25, one tenth of a milligram, equivalent of one six hundredth of a grain. A ounce of this material will make a 150,000 of such doses. Let us observe the effect some three hours later.
Dr Cohen:
Now tell me.
Housewife:
Well I couldn’t – I couldn’t possibly tell you. It – it’s here. Can’t you feel it? This whole room – this…this… everything is in color. And – and I can feel the air, I can – I can see it. I can see all the molecules. I mean… I’m part of it. I’m…can’t you see it?
Dr Cohen:
I’m trying.
Housewife:
Oh it’s just like – like you’re released, or you are free or… I don’t know I can tell you.
Dr Cohen:
How do you feel inside?
Housewife:
Inside… I don’t have an inside.
Dr Cohen:
Is it all one?
Housewife:
It would be all one if… if… if you weren’t here and if… if… if nobody else… Yes everything is one. I…you have nothing to do with it, I am one with what I am. I can see everything in color. Everything, you have to see the air. You can’t believe it! And…and the dimensions! All the prisms and the rays and everything coming down through you and moving…
Dr Cohen:
What does this all mean to you?
Housewife:
I’ve never seen such infinite beauty in my life. It’s like a curtain or a spider-web or… Can you see it’s right here in front of me, right now! Watch! No! Good heavens! You know it went through me? It passed right through me!
Dr Cohen:
Could you feel it?
Housewife:
I wa.. ah… wa… a… me!? I wasn’t in me…I…
Dr Cohen:
Is all this pleasant or unpleasant or aren’t these the right words?
Housewife: Source: LYBIO.net
What seems pleasant or unpleasant… there isn’t anything pleasant and unpleasant. It is too beautiful. It´s… it´s… how can you think in… I mean… can´t you feel it? Everything is so beautiful and lovely and alive! You shouldn’t say anything about anything not being. This is reality, this is… If you look right over there… are you looking? Can you?
Dr Cohen:
Yes, what should I see?
Housewife:
I wish I could talk in technicolor or… or… let you see it… Can you… Did you say you can see it?
Dr Cohen:
No, I can’t quite see it, tell me about it.
Housewife:
It’s… I can’t tell you about it. If you can’t see it then you just never know it. I feel sorry for you.
Text:
Dr. Cohen discusses the LSD state with philosopher Gerald Heard.
Dr Cohen:
Now Gerald I know you have, great personal experience with, lysergic acid. What do you think of it?
Henry FitzGerald Heard:
To do this in two minutes, eternity in an hour. It’s almost impossible of course as all the patients say to describe it. You can only say, “it isn’t it isn’t it isn’t,” trying to tell people what it is.
Well of course, I don’t know any of our friends said that have taken it but haven’t said this one thing in common: “Well, I never knew anything like that in the whole of my life.” And one or two people have said to me, I’ve said it to myself: “That’s what death is going to be like. And oh what fun it will be.”
Dr. Cohen:
How do you mean that?
Henry FitzGerald Heard:
Well I mean that there are the colors and the beauties, the designs, the beautiful wavy things appear. People themselves, – dull people that I thought dull appear fascinating interesting mysterious wonderful. But that’s only the beginning. Man was saying it this afternoon who was taking it. Suddenly you notice, that there aren’t these separations. That we’re not, on a separate island shouting across to somebody else and trying to hear what they’re saying and misunderstanding them. You know. You use the word yourself: empathy. These things flowing underneath. We’re parts of a single continent. It meets underneath the water. And with that goes such delight. The sober certainty of waking bliss.
