Nah, Bams would have said:

Because you have better things to do, apparently Gnolam does not (I know I don't otherwise I'd be doing it already ).

I have tons of game ideas and tons of tablets loaded with them and notes about them. I just keep adding to them as the years go by.

Similarly strange... Acid vs. Alcohol? Studies Suggest LSD Can Help Alcoholics Stop Drinking.

Fruit flies that don't get enough sex drink more alcohol

Yes, all studies have controlled variables. Life does not. That is where the study fails, people in real life wouldn't just be satisfied with the low dose and would seek more. People get addicted to prescription pills all the time because they start over taking what they are given. We live in a time where people think that more medicines will either help more or last longer in the system which makes the dependent on the drugs. I've had friends and family members get painkiller prescriptions and if they had severe pain they would take more than what was prescribed (now most my family are dependent on drugs, which is also the reason I only talk to my mom anymore out of the family).

Just remembered a line from a weight loss book I have that was written by a doctor. He says, "our society is geared toward to the immediate; we want things and we want them now." Goes on to talk about how he is constantly getting patients that make up illnesses to get medications and people that are overweight are no different, they want medicines that can be addictive to lose weight rather than doing things in a healthy manner.

That racism depends on anxiety seems plausible. A cynical turn of events would be that beta blockers would be more strictly regulated, because they inhibit free speech :p
LSD research is interesting too. Of course Norwegians rediscover this research. I've heard some good things about LSD. And a few bad...

In the US, maybe.
It certainly struck me that people seemed much more likely to take pills, and take more of them, than what I'm used to from home.

That would just mean they run out more quickly, right?
That said, it's still very dangerous to overdose anything, but most painkillers do extremely nasty things if you overdose them.

Again, I think that's mainly the US, although it seems to be getting worse here as well.
This is again something that stood out to me.

And this.

LSD's the most powerful hallucinogen known to man. I've taken it about 10 times.
It can leave you mentally scarred.

When people say a drug isn't addictive, they generally are referring to the lack of physical dependence. However, anything can be addictive in the general sense, including complaining, using the Internet, lying, etc.

I'm addicted to this thread.

You can use a program like this one to take away all the tedium.

I knew there was a reson I was addicted to this thread, it's going from point to pointlessness in a pinball stylee!

From experience, well, 2 or 3 times at the most experience, LSD is by far the strongest I've had, but I've never had heroin (and NEVER will, not even to smoke) so can't say LSD IS the strongest with total factual certainty, but let me assure you as a connoisseur of substances with an agenda of my-highness that LSD is in no way addictive, in the common sense of the word.

Just my opinion, and I'm sticking with it

Some people suffer claustrophobia because when they are in a tight enclosed space they fear they are unable to breath, even when there is enough ventilation to allow this to happen. This could be viewed as an addiction to air. Then there is the whole bottled water thing.

Addiction is not as simple as someone becomes chemically addicted to a substance. There is a dependency because it allows the person to escape reality and makes their life more palatable for them to deal with. You could put a million different opiates in front of me, and I can take them and leave them, with no real chance of addiction. Put white spirits in front of me, and I would be seriously tempted to have a drink, and another, and another.

Being dependent on something is not the same as addiction. The word addiction is used when it leads to destructive behavior.

Really? Everything I've search on for addiction have about the same definition "Addiction is a persistent, compulsive dependence on a behavior or substance." None of them say it is destructive behavior though.
