He proved the point that not everyone should take massive doses of LSD on a daily basis.

Syd belonged to the "Anything that fucks you up is good" philosophy.

Re: Syd Barrett
From what I've read it was the acid. I was on that slippery slope myself and I can see how easy it would have been to lose an anchor of some sort in this so called 'reality', which was how I thought of my 'ordinary' mind.
My best mate even today (we met up last year) was from that era. He never really did come back and he has a very strange take on things even today!
