==The CIA and Project MKULTRA Findings==
LAE-32 was experimented with by the CIA as part of Project MKULTRA. It was reported to create a condition similar to that of schizophrenia in mentally healthy individuals, characterized by indifference and depersonalization. While it was reported that, when used on schizophrenics, it created a condition that allowed the patients to become indifferent to their hallucinations and cease hallucinatory excitation.

==Chemistry==
LAE-32, or d-lysergic acid ethylamide, is a semisynthetic substance of the [[lysergamide]] family. LAE-32's chemical structure consists of a bicyclic hexahydroindole ring fused to a bicyclic quinoline group (lysergic acid). At carbon 8 of the quinoline an N, generally N-ethyl carboxamide is bound, LAE-32 is additionally substituted at carbon 6 with a methyl group.
==Pharmacology==
{{Further|Serotonergic psychedelic}}
LAE-32 most likely acts by binding to serotonin receptors in the brain. It may, like [[LSD]], bind to dopamine receptors as well.
==Subjective effects==
The subjective effects of LAE-32 are reportedly mainly sedating and depersonalizing, creating a state of indifference in users.

===Dangerous interactions===
{{DangerousInteractions/Intro}}
*'''[[UncertainInteraction::Cannabis]]''' - Cannabis has an unexpectedly strong and somewhat unpredictable synergy with psychedelics. Extreme caution is advised when using this combination as it can significantly increase the chances of a negative psychological reaction like [[anxiety]], [[confusion]] and [[psychosis]]. Users are advised to start off with only a fraction of their usual cannabis dose and take long breaks between hits to avoid over intake.
*'''[[UncertainInteraction::Amphetamines]]''' & '''[[UncertainInteraction::Cocaine]]''' - Stimulants increase [[anxiety]] levels and the risk of [[thought loops]] which can lead to negative experiences.
*'''[[UnsafeInteraction::Tramadol]]''' - Tramadol is well known to lower seizure threshold and psychedelics also cause occasional seizures.
==Legal status==
LAE-32 is not explicitly illegal in any nation, but it is possibly illegal to possess in the United States for purposes of consumption due to the Federal Analog Act.
