A patient developed psychosis two days after ingesting LSD, followed by catatonia one week later. A single electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) treatment resolved the catatonic syndrome dramatically. This appears to be the first reported case of catatonia following LSD use. The case highlights the need for a diagnostic category of organic catatonia.
