Legal Highs
I don’t like drugs;prescription, legal or otherwise. I am on three drugs at the moment, warfarin to thin my blood, statins to stop my blood clotting and some tablets to reduce my hay fever. In a perfect society that is three too many.
There has been a report today about how dubious legal highs manufactured in China, sold on the Internet are now taken by millions of people.
Are people really that stupid to take such a substance?
I just typed “Legal Highs” into Google and I could easily buy enough dope to make an elephant fly!
The government is trying to find a way to ban them, but how do you ban something, when you don’t know what it is?
Somehow we must educate people that taking illegal substances and tobacco doesn’t do your health any good.
I also have read that Raoul Moat was a steriod abuser. Did that have any affect on his character and what he did? This article poses that question and provides a few answers.
The Anonymous Widower 
There are people stupid enough to take anything! I know that there is a drug which would really help my pain levels. It is not available in UK on prescription for pain, although it is avail;able on a named patient basis for patients with MS. I choose not to take this drug – and that choice has been made after a great deal of thought. Part of the reason I have chosen not to use it is because it is illegal, part of it is to do with side effects, but the one of the main reasons was how would I know if what I was getting was safe, pure, indeed if it actually contained anything it should.
But there are hundreds of people who dont think like that.
