Erowid has been providing unbiased information about drugs for over 20 years, strongly resisting any attempts at censorship and taking strict measures to ensure utmost privacy for those wanting to learn.
We've seen many changes in policies and attitudes about drugs over the last 20 years, with the regulation of cannabis, increases in research on psychedelics, and revelations about the use of Ketamine for the treatment of depression.
Recreational markets have undergone huge changes too, with the hugely increased popularity of "research chemicals" followed by operation webtryp, and then a decade later, the huge amounts of methylone that made it into the mainstream markets as MDMA. It would have been hard to imagine the existence of darknet markets 20 years ago, let alone the shape that they now take.
Erowid also runs ecstasydata.org, the only publicly searchable database of drug analysis results, with results going back to 1996. The ecstasy market has changed a lot in that time, from everything being a round, crudely pressed pill like this to today, where ecstasy tablets may be comparable to professional pharmaceutical manufacturing quality (even if the ingredients may not be) like this. We have seen all kinds of things come through the lab, with the popularity of DXM in the early 2000s, the huge numbers of pills with piperazines in 2008-2010 and then the current situation where pills may contain dangerously high doses of nothing but MDMA.
Drug education isn't all that sexy and we don't get any government funding, but currently we have the most incredible funding opportunity that we've ever had in our 22 year history. An anonymous donor has set up a fund to DOUBLE any donations received by 10th March, up to a total of $250,000.
We have been incredibly lucky to see so many supporters show themselves and are currently at 173k/250k of the target. We have some incredible plans for securing the future of erowid and would hugely love the support of /r/drugs.
