when being in fantasy turns BAD....

According to The Star Newspaper dated 23,Monday,November 09 " Party drugs that kill ".

What are party drugs?

Do you really know what is the side effect & bad side of it?

Here is what star had to say.

Methamphetamine commonly known as ( shaybu, ice,yaba, WY, Pil Kuda) is a type of amphetamine-type stimulant (ATS), which also covers amphetamine (Bennis, Bnez), ecstacy, cocanine (coke, snow, blow, toot) and crack (base, sugar block, roxanne). ATS is a synthetic drug, produced through chemical reactions, it acts on the central nervous system.

Users feel awkwardly confident and bold, and this also makes them more aggressive. they usually experience sleeping difficulties, staying awake for up to eight days.

The detrumental effect of methamphetamine:

- it affects various sides of the brain instead of being receptor-specific like conventional drugs. it makes the user more violent, aggresive and will take long run cause brain damage, 60% of which is irreversible.

- its highly acidic and can destroy the walls of blood vessels or cause internal vessel rupture.

-it affects the cardiovascular system, leading to heart attack or stroke.

it leads to mental disorder. more than 40% of those taking methamphetamine suffer from mental disorder after 2 years.

it causes psychotic simptoms including paranoia and hallucination, among others, that often cause suicide.

ketamine: Commonly known as K is an anaesthetic for horses or elephant, legally manufactured at india in liquid form, but the powder form is abused as a party drug. low doses gives user a drunk-like effect while a high doses induces an "out of the world" , dream like or floating sensation. the drug numbs the user and thier thinking, and hence, is widely use as a date rape drug or illegal organ trafficker.

Only a certain percentage of users develope dependancy, but even those not addicted to it will experience the effect:

-Severe epigastric pain

- Urinary inconsistency (passing urine every five minutes or so) urinary track infection and kidney failure.

- Pronounced damage to the cerebella ( Back of brain) and brain stem ( the part of that brain that contgrols our stomoch and urinary bladder movement).

Eramin 5 : (five-chai, Happy 5) or Nimetazepam, which belongs to the benzodiazepine group of drugs, is an anti-anxiety, sleeping tablet that has the properties of amphetamine. it is highly abusive, hence the benzodiazepine.


p/s:
A familiar phrase: why must i stop?

Heres the answer: Why must you give yourself an excuse to love yourself?
why not start enjoying life in a diffrent perspective and start loving yourself which will then give u the will to look at your future instead of living only for today where the future is a thought for tomorrow.
