Sad. Some people should not take psychedelics, whether this was LSD or something else doesn't really matter. IMO if you have serious mental issues stay away from this whole class of drugs. Try them if/when your mental state improves. I am pretty sane but I wouldn't take LSD after losing job or getting divorced or when your mum dies, take them when you happy. This isn't booze or MDMA it doesn't cheer you up and it tends to make you dwell on things. And this guy had paranoia, really LSD may not be for you at all.


A YOUNG man jumped off a multi-storey car park after taking LSD, an inquest heard.

James Ghaben, 22, fell to his death on September 2 after he had called his mum in the morning at her work to confess he had taken the hallucinogenic drug, the inquest was told.

Giving evidence, PC Gary Pearce said police were called later that evening after James drove away at speed from the family home under the influence of the drug.

PC Pearce said on the day of his death his mum had left him at their family home in Marchwood as she went to work.

But he said: "James then phoned his mum at 8.45am to say “I have done it again”, by that his mum knew he had taken some drugs, possibly LSD.

“She came straight home and phoned his step dad Kelvin, who came from work and remained with him for the test of the day to make sure he remained in the house.”

Southampton Coroner’s Court heard how he had a history of taking drugs such as LSD, and cannabis, and after his death legal highs were found in his post.


James had that year dropped out of his course at the University of Staffordshire, although he was not known to have suffered mental health problems or attempted to take his own life before.

But PC Pearce said on the day of his death James made references to “not wanting to live in the world anymore” and saying he “does not live in reality”.

He said: “He was talking about a big government conspiracy which everyone is involved in.

“He was described by his parents as acting like a caged animal, often pacing up and down.

"At one point he came down to the garage and said it was too bright upstairs and he wanted to be in the garage where it was dark."

But at about 9.20pm, PC Pearce said James’ parents saw him speed away from his home in Tavells Lane in Marchwood in his red Fiat without his lights on, sparking concerns for other road users’ safety.

Later on that night, at 11pm, he was found at the bottom of West Quay multi-storey car park and after identification was discovered his parents were notified. A suicide letter addressed to his mum was then found.

Coroner Keith Wiseman ruled that he took his own life while the balance of his mind was disturbed.

He said: "This drug was obviously causing him enormous difficulties."

Why did he have to choose the favourite anti-drug propagandist way to describe the ills of LSD ? By jumping down a window/building/high place..ugh.
 
Can I get a BIG BLUE LIGHT.. YEAH FUCKN BLAME IT ON THE DRUGS.. Im sorry this happened to this person but it seems pretty obvious to me that he suffered from severe mental illness and this was the cause of this persons troubles.
