Yeah its really old, but of interest not only for lulz over confusion in it:


Reported highs lasted between 30 minutes to one hour, “two hours if you don’t share too much”(10). The high for a 20-year-old Hispanic male who smoked one fry stick by himself lasted five days (14). These extended periods may be due not only to the embalming fluid mixture and the number of comrades who shared it, but also to the fact that a joint or cigar treated in embalming fluid burns more slowly than one that was not treated, according to seven respondents. Respondents thus have longer opportunities to absorb the THC, solvents, and PCP.


It relates to policy and even media - as I found the study taken at face value in one of the greasiest textbooks of all time.

the textbook

Dangerous Drugs: An Easy-to-Use Reference for Parents and Professionals​


the textbook itself is not openly greasy so far, its mostly ok with cringe moments. [Edit: a couple more chapters in and we have cringe on a big comeback] The real issue is that its 26 years old and its supposed to be a "drugs and the brain" course.

There is a potential conflict of interest with a staff member on both the CACCF and the rehab offering the course [Last Door in BC], Jessica Cooksey - so potentially same people who cherry pick the cringe textbook get to say its just fine.

The last door and CACCF are both very active in Alberta health reform.

So from skimming the article and an AI overview it seems like formaldehyde/embalming fluid is both a slang term for PCP but also used by itself sometimes to get high but it actually doesn't really have much of anything mind altering in it and is SUPER toxic. Is that what everyone else is getting?

Cause I read it mentioned that people will add PCP to embalming fluid but that by itself E.F. basically isn't mind altering. It has methanol/wood alcohol in it which is SUPER fucking dangerous but I don't think that will even do anything smoked or snorted. You can drink it and probably die even faster than if you drank rubbing alcohol which is equally stupid.

So why do people mix PCP with this incredibly toxic shit and use it?

Makes no sense.
