'''Acidhead''' is a word, often derogatory, for someone who regularly uses the substance [[LSD]] (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide).

LSD or "Acid", it should be noted, is hard to [[Drug Aabuse|abuse]] in the familiar fashion of substances like [[alcohol]] or the [[opiate|opiates]]. In large doses one often experiences "blinding truths", revelations or epiphany which can result in the individual either scaring themselves into never taking it again, taking it only when they seek particular resolution or after finding resolution to questions posed in a previous experience. it is this characteristic which gave it successful trials as a tool in [[Psychotherapy]].

An acidhead will often appear to the casual, uninitiated observer as incommunicado in the normal sense.
