visit to your psychiatrist will get you addicted to ritalin and valium. Visit to your local shaman will get you addicted to acid and shrooms. Your local dealer will get you addicted to meth, heroine and coke. Your choice.

Claiming that acid or shrooms is addictive like heroine or cocaine is a big “Citation Needed” moment.

Yes this guy says two things are addictive, so he must have said that two are alike in their addictiveness. I really don't know what you need, but I'm pretty sure I don't have it.

Heck, saying that LSD is addictive at all is actually a really strong claim, which you didn’t support.

I've met no less than three people who have claimed to have had a psychological addiction to LSD at one point.

You called LSD and Shrooms addictive without evidence, but you’re more angry about me using the word “like”?

I mean, you called them both addictive, how is that not “like” each other?

I'm not angry, take whatever you want.

In over 12 years of using psychedelics intermittently, I have never met a daily user of any of them. It's just not possible. I have met people that abused them slightly for sure, but not like the other drugs you listed. Those are all extremely high risk in the daily abuse category of addiction. This simply isn't a fair comparison. Fiendy/physically addictive drugs =/ Psychedelics
