My friend died from smoking Spice, K2 , Legal whatever the fuck you want to call it.

spice spice, baby.... to go...... to go.

I was just conversing with a chemist i know, he did some research for me on a pack of spice i bought last night, apparently it affects and certainly can cause damage to the pituitary gland, adrenals, thyroid, kidneys, lungs, blood vessels, liver, causes anxiety. Needless to say I threw it in the garbage, how can they get away with selling that stuff?!

Hey balzac, just got to this thread. I haven't read it all, but shit.. I'm sorry to hear about your friend. I was left with what I consider serious brain damage from it (til this day, no doubt in my mind). I'm glad RIU at least warns about the drug for the most part. Fuck spice guys, it's seriously not worth it.

i know the feeling, i was smoking it when i was on probation for a little while, an ounce was like 20 bucks.. so i smoked about an ounce a day for almost a month til i seen all the jars and realized how much i spent on it. i know the burnt out feeling from it. it messes with everything, making decisions to just being able to act right. my one buddy never stopped smoking it and got bad, started robbing houses and shit for it. pawned all his gf's gold and shit. at first that shit was getting us all super high. then it was needed to act normal.. my buddy was better off when we were dope heads. where i am now if someone offers you a j or a hit off the pipe you gotta ask if its spice. still lol. theres one street corner here by the bodega that sells it, always smells like fweed. fweed is fake weed. i will say when it first came out i tried it because we were going on a blunt cruise.. this was a few years back. we were going to pick up a friend who we didnt know ended up on probation. he couldnt smoke and he had the original fweed on him, when it cost 30 a g. we smoked it between the 3 of us and we were hiiiiiiigh. muchies, red eyes and all.. then i didnt try it for a while, i guess maybe it was because the original got banned i dont know. when i tried it again it felt like i was having a heart attack, my whole body was shaking bad and my heart was racing. i puked a couple times. it was bad, almost called the ambulance then it started going away. spice/k2 i think is helping weed become legalized. people will always find something to use/abuse. if weed was legal noone would buy spice except for the spice fiends that are already addicted like crazy. after you smoke that crap for a while, weed doesnt even get you high for a long time. i harvested some plants so to get off it i just smoked like crazy until i started getting stoned again... but its been like 2 years now since i smoked it hep. that burnt out feeling is long gone now

I tried it maybe twice, but it wasn't anything I was interested in. Thanks for the words.
