money quote from the Nature article:
"Psychedelics probably work in addiction by making the brain function more chaotically for a period - a bit like shaking up a snow globe - weakening reinforced brain connections and dynamics."
Taking LSD (or other hallucinogens) is to your brain like shaking is to a snow globe.
Marihuana is better ;)
