Positive Psychological effects of LSD

Leaving aside the hallucinations and mystical phenomena, LSD has profound psychological effects. In my experience at least, I discovered that I had the ability to be able to choose and make those choices stick. Coming from a state of being withdrawn, shy and affected before tripping, to a point where after dropping the cube, (it was sugar cubes in those days), I realized I could by decision pull myself out of all my introversion and self doubt and become confident positive and assertive; I could be myself simply by deciding. I remember thinking something like, "Hey I'm okay, I'm me". It was a refreshing feeling like being reborn. I didn't imagine I could lose this perfectly natural state of being, but the next day I was back to my old self.
But did the acid give me an insight to the power of decision? Can you change by decision without chemical aid? Or has chemical aid undermined my power of decision, knowing that it was the acid that brought me to that realization above? Well my conclusion is that you can't make one big decision and change yourself entirely like on a trip, instead it is a process of small steps of taking on responsibilities and challenges of seeing when you are intimidated or turned inwards and refusing to let it get the better of you.
Your thoughts.

 

I actually considered all the mysticallism or whatever a negative effect only beacuse of how fucking retared it made, sure i recieved new great ideas, wonderful aspects on life, but it really made me a brain dead doofus lol.....I have no regrets though, its the hand i was giving and i just gotta play my cards now

I had very profound ideas though, really,really,really wrong timing though, depression and acid dont mix.
