The loss of objectivity in such cases is a result of over stimulation of internal processes in potentially unbalanced fashion, and while an individual under control of other types of medication may experience a variety of up and down, compensatory or decompensatory effects, the individual maintained on doses of LSD, while seeming PSYCHOTIC to others and out of touch with conventional reality, often functions internally, albeit temporarilly in the absence of intensive external supports, in a fashion which is rooted in the brain and minds ability to organize itself based upon learned internal rules of order from chaos.
