I'm old and I came along in the recreational drug era, so I pretty much tried everything and watched a lot of other people, too. My personal thought is that LSD is not so great for you in the long run. I met Timothy Leary in 1988 and the guy seemed like a total zombie.
I'd personally try ECT before I'd become a long-term user of an hallucinogen -- mostly, I think it's more likely to be effective against depression -- but they are both pretty scary.
