40 people went to irish hospitals over the last few days

im approacing day 6 after taking about 3/4 of a gram, 2 people took less then me and were ok in 1-2 days

i've been to the doctor twice, and rang mullingar hos[pital where teh 40 were admitted

your blood pressure and heart rate are fine, your not going to die

the worst is the anxiety, that wierd feeling in your heart,

both gp's and hospitals are giving patients 5mg of dizapan (vallium)

it takes the edge of the panicing,

im better then i was, i just want to be ok, it will be a week friday

like everyone else, i just want to be back to my good old self

stay strong, keep positive, try to laugh and talk to your good friends

the worst thing you can do is read about it, or worry about it









hi i opnly joined the forum , got out of an A&E today and im in bits , they left me sittin there 22 hours so im guessing they nop a serious case when they seen one , they gave me no medication for it but gave me some pill to relax at the start ,
im still in a bad way but only since i cam eon to this but it has helped me a lot , at least we know people have come off it
im on me fourth day now and i split a gram with 3 people and im still in bits , different people will have different reactions , i've seen on this that its 6-7 days for most people so ive been to docs , didnt say much so ill go bak after 6 days if i still feel unwell ,suggest you do the same

the nurse in mullingar general said theres nothing they can do for anyone, 7 of the 40 admitted had it really bad, like breakdowns and siesures, all thats really wrong with us is, "the fear" so your heart races like a fucker, so the vallium settles you

any gp will know about it now

we'll make it, just stay strong, and stay positive

I know like i'm 20 and didnt want me or anyone other than the people who done it to know bout it , txted every1 i no earlier when i got out of hospital to tell them its bad news , most of them hadnt even known bout the HSE report so they havnt really done an awful lot to prevent it , ye they actually cant do anything like but relax you , i didnt eat for 12 hours cops i was sittin there panicking in the hospital but not eating or drink makes it worst, sleep deprevation will really put you on a downer so try and get as much as possible , we done it sunday and 2 of my friends havnt slept since or went to work , I just hope sumthin is done about this soon, and these people who say its ok when you take a small dose , its too strong for sumthin to be considered as a part drug , simple as

I'm nearly sure Whack is Naphyrone aka NRG-1, which is now being brought in as a "replacement" for Mephedrone...

Just gone through a hellish few days after taking about 0.4g of this shit on Friday night...

Most feedback I have read rings true with what I experienced, but alarmingly some people have given it positive feedback (hopefully just ppl confusing their chemicals - and not some vendor attempting to promote their product and thereby potentially ruining lives), I would beg anyone considering taking this stuff not to do it! It is really, really bad! I have experience taking various chemicals and have got myself in some really bad states... But nothing compares to this...

Because the effects come on very slowly, it's far too easy to take too much before its really kicked in... A few hours of a highly charged, manic chatty buzz (but not at all euphoric) are then followed by about 8-10 hours of a racing heart, tight chest, paranoia and inability to sleep...

Anyway just got back from getting myself checked out today in A&E, because with any drug that makes you feel the way this shit does the risks of serious Liver/Kidney/Cardio-vascular damage must be really high... One of the nurses told me they had a ridiculos number of people in who had taken whack in the last few days, some of them going through serious paranoid psychotic episodes - and these paranoias will potentially stay with them for life...

I have never in my life come across a drug where the line between doing enough to get high and enough to OD and enter a world of hurt is so small... The suppoused "safe dosage" is 0.01g - so 1g should give you enough for 100 hits - obviously people used to mephedrone will not be doing this, especially as they were probably told it was similar to meph when they were sold it...

Anyway just my feelings on the subject... No doubt people will continue to take the stuff and seriously mess their bodies up and get themselves sectioned... But it's really made me re-evaluate attitude towards stimulants in general...

Why permanently risk damage to your organs or changes to your brain chemistry for a chemical that doesnt even provide a particularly nice high...


Calculus your words have made the Sun Newspaper this morning!
 
Had a couple of lines of that stuff on monday night, my heart is still racing. Should I go to hospital or wait it out?
 
to be honest spludge i done it sunday went hospital they gace me 1 pill to relax me , tats d key to controlling it like, i stil have it but will admit i feel better , if you go to the doctors you'll wait for hours to be seen but it depends on how bad you feel and solely up to you , most people on this only received relaxing pills when they went in , have you been able to sleep cos im startin to sleep now but my 2 friends havnt been thats y i think i must be gettin better

your hearts fine cheif, its your mind causeing it. happy thoughts, funny movies. dont be sitting around doing fuck all, go outside

if you cant cope. go to your GP, avoid the hospital, its too long a wait,

any gp can give you something to settle you
 
yeah, had this stuff on saturday night, and went through a hellish few days. I feel great today now, nearly back to 100%, so I think its just a case of waiting it out and trying to keep in a good frame of mind.

Also NEVER use this stuff, pure lethal.
 
Did a couple of lines on a Fiday night, a mate had 0.5gm so it wasnt a lot as there was four of us and he still took some away.
I'd say I was a week or so before I was right.
No buzz and a horrible after effect.
I know on here so far people have been talking about 40 or so cases in hospital.. Everyone I know who when near this was ManDown for at least a week.
For me thats the nail in the Headshops coffin, I've been givin these cunt my cash for years and to be honest they have never really matched the really good BZP based products they had a few years back. They have completly fucked up the supply of normal drugs.
I guess its not them banning it but they have really show there colours over the past few weeks,,, first they rip everyone off with basically a placebo and now this fucken nightmare.

Burn em,, Burn em all. I want my good auld yokes, acid ,speed and coke back. .
 
A friend of mine rang the newspapers 2 weeks ago to warn them that something like this would happen and he was told his story was "not news worthy".

And on the same day rang the police,and the line of questioning was "so did you take the drug also?Well you must be still off your head.
Goodbye."
 
Acid303..... thats this country all over , especially the police, they wont do a thing until sumthin bad happens , they wont listen to people especially if they think they are out of it, i think its disgraceful that the police assume your friend is off his head, this country really needs to get a hold on things , i no people who havnt took the drug obviously dont agree with this but if yave gone through what the rest of us are you'd understand ......

And as for the papers " not news worthy" ... horrible statement when your talking about peoples lives , they should be ashamed they didnt take this story, cos low and behold it ends up on the front of the sun newspaper after people have been in a terrible way from it .....that person who said that too your friend will be sitting somewhere regretting that decision and so will the police who he talked to...

if they had of looked into what your friend had said , this still might not have been avoided completely but there would have been less casualties, someone told me there a 15 year old has been brought to hospital this morning from it , whether this is true or not its absolutely disgraceful, ive made it my business to let as many ppl i know not ta touch it but i can already see there will be a lot more casualties this weekend if nothing is done
 
back from the hospital was in a pretty bad way getting in. Feel better now long may it last. shudder to think what the next couple of days have in store
 
i cant stress enough, been to 3 doctors,

the best thing is vallium

your heart is fine, its your head thats not,

relax, we will all be ok, i feel so much better then i did, and its 6 days,

im a tall guy, 6ft 3, and i weight about 18 stone, so that probably helped me not being alot worse then i should

out of curiousity how much did ye take

i'd say over the space of 10 hours i took about half or 3/4 of a bag
 
I got burned by whack

Well I'm yet another victum of whack. I went to a headshop once before the ban and tried Wildcat. That stuff was alright so I had no fear of these substances. I went into a local headshop on Saturday 2 weeks ago. They had just re-opened after the ban. I bought a bag of Whack and was told 'it's strong'. Fine, I'm no virgin to being 'high' and hadn't planned anything for the next day so plenty of time to come down. It was good fun Saturday night, I kept myself busy and enjoyed it. I didn't sleep that night but I was expecting that, no biggy. I was still wired on Sunday, all Sunday, then Sunday night. It's then when I started getting concerned. Going to work 'high' is not a good idea for anyone. I called in sick on Monday and spent all day just lying on my bed looking at the inside of my eyelids with my mind racing at 100mph, constantly, for hours and hours... By Monday night I thought I was starting to feel better and was looking forward to getting some sleep. This didn't happen and I had to go to work the next day absolutely wired. It was a difficult day to say the least. As soon as I got home that evening I jumped straight into bed and lay there for hours, looking at the inside of my eyelids. I realised at this stage that someone who had no experience with being high would be sitting in the emergency room or in a mental asylam at this stage. I just soldiered on, kept just sitting there waiting it out. By Wednesday morning I was starting to feel a little less wired but the effects of sleep depravation were starting to take it's toll. I got a litttle paranoid and anxious. Nothing you would notice externally but inside I was starting to become detached a little. I hadn't eaten much all week so was pretty weary all round. My breathing had been affected the whole way through it. It's almost like whack had somehow constricted your diaphram so you couldn't take a deep breath easily, it came out staggered and deliberate. I was also lightly sweating the whole way through this which got real annoying. Wednesday came and went but still no end in sight. I was still obviously under the effect of the drug and still unable to sleep. I would spend all night lying in bed just trying to at least get some physical rest. Thursday was alot better, the feeling of being wired was less than the feeling of reality at last and I started to feel more grounded. I was able to eat without it being a chore though I still fet sick every time I did eat. Thursday night I managed to sleep. Not very much, 6 hours and more of a case of time passing without you noticing rather than actual sleeping. On Friday I felt like I was in control of everything again though I was still a long way from feeling human. Friday night I slept and slept and slept and slept for about 8 hours. I was absolutely bollocked the next morning, I felt every single hour of sleep I missed. I used the bank holiday weekend to stay very still and not do anything, get loads of rest and get propers dinners into me. Basically it was fucking horrible and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I didn't have some of the symptoms people have been mentioning but I'm pretty hardy mentally and didn't loose the run of myself but I could see the potential for it at every step. I'm 35 years old and being out of your mind for a week will teach you alot about being out of your mnd, it'll make you realise whats important and whats not. While I have no regrets about my occational drug taking in the past, I think I've just done my last Class A. That stuff has left a bad taste in my mouth. So beware, you've been warned, and that's alot more than I was given in the headshop. Stay away from whack, it's posion.
