Club drugs like Ecstasy, GHB, Special K and Liquid X that
are used at raves and concerts, cause permanent damage to the neurons in the
brain, affecting your memory, and judgment. Club drugs are stimulants and they make your heart
rate accelerate, and your blood pressure climb rapidly. Use of
these drugs, even one time, has led to heart and kidney failure, seizures, loss
of muscle control and breathing problems that will be with you for life. Since these drugs are illegal, there is no
known control over what or how much of anything is in them. No regulation of the content means that the
person does not know what they are ingesting.
These drugs cause people to lose consciousness and even to become
comatose. What people don’t know about
these drugs is not only that the effects are long lasting, but that they are
also addictive. Getting the word out
about these facts, is vital, since the drugs change frequently, but they have the
same devastating results.
