A 32-year-old man with no prior mental health problems amputated both of his testicles by hand after his first use of LSD combined with alcohol. Six months later, he had not developed any psychiatric disorder. This case shows that even a single first use of LSD with alcohol can lead to severe intoxication and extreme self-harm.
