I won't do your research for you, but you can probably find a site in 
the UK which advises young persons about the risks of illegal drugs. 
That site strongly condemns a lot of drugs, but doesn't say much against 
LSD other than that persons who were already troubled psychologically 
shouldn't use it. They also stated that it's not a good idea to take it 
in emotionally troubling circumstances or settings.

They also point out that the percentage of documented "bad trips", even 
"first time", is vanishingly miniscule, compared to the percentage of 
people who had an experience they rated as "good" or better.

It should be pointed out that excessive use over time produces, well, you.


Google also for "challenge studies" and "MK ULTRA".
