Like, the drug Ecstasy. It makes you the happiest happy you will ever be.Then the next few days your at your lowest low.Then back to normal.You won't ever be that happy again unless you keep using the drug.And your Ecstasy tolerance won't ever go away like Marijuana.Example...If you don't smoke trees for a week your tolerance for the drug will go down.Ecstasy you won't take it for a year but you will still need to take the same amount you had to a year ago to get to your high.And that's only Ecstasy, a drug not taken as seriously as Coke Meth or Crack or Heroine.Kids in middle school is Vegas go to raves and take Ecstasy.Don't forget it takes ice cream scoops out of your freakkin' brain brain.And it makes you do... lets just say 'immoral things' because your so happy.And this is just a minor drug.Not as minor as trees or prescribed drugs,but it's easier to get than the crazier drugs.Make sense at all?

@whitefallOMG I love love love statistics! ❤️"According to the Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN), emergency department (ED) visits attributable to club drugs are relatively rare. ED visits for some, but not all, club drugs increased significantly from 1994 to 1999.Among the club drugs discussed in this report, methamphetamine accounts for the largest share of DAWN ED mentions and is most frequent in metropolitan areas in the western U.S.LSD is the next most common in ED mentions, followed by GHB, MDMA (Ecstasy), Rohypnol, and Ketamine.ED episodes involving club drugs usually involve multiple substances, such as marijuana, cocaine, and other club drugs. Alcohol is a particularly common factor in these ED episodes.ED episodes related to GHB, Ketamine, and MDMA increased significantly from 1994 to 1999, and GHB and MDMA mentions increased dramatically from 1997 to 1999.An apparent increase in Rohypnol mentions was not statistically significant. That is, the variability in Rohypnol estimates from 1994 to 1999 is likely due to random fluctuation.Young people are disproportionately represented in ED visits involving club drugs.Deaths associated with club drugs other than methamphetamine are quite rare in DAWN data." -Adolescent Substance Abuse Knowledge Base

@whitefallMy source is living around people in Vegas 😋LSD can cause flashbacks throughout your entire life.DMT I think can make you go insane.Well, I know LSD can easily give you a permanent high...Make you go insane pretty much.Cocaine, well lets just say some kids don't take it as seriously as you should.Cocaine addicts are crazy.They need their drugs and they need it now.Probably one of the easiest drugs to get addicted to and it'll surely kill you.No doubt about it.

@whitefall, Often with illegal drugs, you can never be sure of what's in them, because they're made in labs that aren't regulated, so poisonous chemicals/substances (eg. rat poison, bleach, ammonia) can be found in them.
