This is a remarkable forum and I just wish my son had seen it.... perhaps he did, I don't know. I will post again when we have more understanding of what happened. It does appear that his usage was very high in the four weeks leading to his death.
Annaminx, I am pleased you posted and Even had you already seen my post then I would have encouraged you to do so. It is not my motivation to cause alarm or anxiety, nor to gain sympathy (that is however deeply appreciated), simply to tell you what I know about this drug and the effect on my son. I am very impressed by the culture of this site... and the care you show others with your candour and compassion.
Please take care.
thank you, i wasnt sure if it was the right thing to do. everyones input to this site is invaluable. one of the biggest dangers of drug use is lack of knowledge. sites like this have input from a broadspectrum of people from chemists to ravers, users and non users. its the most valuable and effective form of "harm reduction" in my opinion. its unfortunate that the goverment is blind to it. throught history one drug becomes popular. its banned, it then explodes in popularity, decreases in purity and is in the hands of organised crime. cocaine keeps an entire continent in civial war. everytime one is bannd its replaced by something usually more dangerous, and the cycle continues. this goest back hundreds of years... there is a very good book for reference "the pursuit of oblivian" as long as drugs are illegal, they fund organised crime and we cant look after users, even the RC market is "underground" and vendors cant give adivce like doses, or sensible use advice withought being shut down. this results in great dangers to users. my prayers and thoughts go out to you and your familly. the best way to solve a problem (hard tho it maybe and inapropriate maybe for me to say) is to look for the facts, search for the facts in order to prevent such a tragedy occuring again to someone else.
in the 90s leah betts died at a party, the media went into a frenzy, it was reported as ecsatcy, but later turned out to be caused by to much water and alcohol (avoided had she had information about what she was taking probably) her family and the media made a campaigne against the drug, however as a lot of what they said was wrong, it resulted in a situation where people wont listen to advice as they have seen it being misleading them in the past, the goverment say "only one pill can kill you" but you see you mates having the time of their lives. they wont listen again.. so when something like nrg1 comes into the media light as it will, people wont belive its as dangerous as it is becuase they have been mislead in the past. i hope this is informative or help, and not inapropriate. education, the truth, and open dialoge is the key
much love
anna
