17-year-old girl left brain damaged after smoking synthetic marijuana

A 17-year-old girl has been left brain damaged, blind and paralysed after smoking synthetic marijuana and suffering a series of strokes.
Emily Bauer, from Cypress in Texas, was left severely disabled after smoking a product that she purchased from a local petrol station.
Ms Bauer purchased the substance last December with friends, but around 15 minutes after smoking it, told her boyfriend she had a migraine and needed to lie down.
She subsequently suffered a series of strokes that left her urinating on herself, running into walls and suffering violent hallucinations.
Her sister Blake told CNN that the police had to be called to help restrain her and get her to Northwest Cypress Hospital, where she attempted to bite medical staff.
“We thought once she comes down off the drug, we'd take her home and show her the dangers of this drug,” her older sister, Blake, said.
“We didn't think it was as big of a deal until 24 hours later she was still violent and hurting herself. We realized you're not supposed to stay high this long.”
Ms Bauer was put into a medically induced coma, as tests revealed the strokes had caused severe vasculitis – a contraction of blood vessels that restricts blood and oxygen reaching the brain.
Ms Bauer’s stepfather Tommy Bryant told CNN: “In four days' time, we went from thinking everything is going to be OK and we'll put her in drug rehabilitation, to now you don't know if she's going to make it”.
The teenager showed initial signs of improvement, but pressure on her brain grew to dangerous levels and she required a hole drilled in her skull to relieve the burden.
Around 70 per cent of Ms Bauer’s brain was considered ‘dead’, and when doctors told her parents she would not be able to recognise her family and would never be able to use her arms or legs again, they opted to take out her breathing tubes and stop all nourishment.
Ms Bauer continued to fight however, and her condition has steadily improved. She even managed to tell her mother she loved her at one point during the early stages of her recovery.
Although she knows where she is and recognises the voices of family members, Ms Bauer is still considered highly confused.
Although she still suffers paralysis, she has recently started moving her arms and legs and even started eating solid food in the last fortnight.
Synthetic marijuana is usually an herbal mixture doused in chemicals and marketed as Spice or K2, although there is no indication that Ms Bauer consumed either of these particular brands.
To get around legal complications, synthetic marijuana is often labelled as potpourri or incense. When a particularly variety is banned, manufacturers simply change the chemical compound, allowing it to return to the shelves.
Ms Bauer’s family have set up a non-profit organisation to make teenagers and their relatives aware of the dangers of synthetic drugs.

Yeah so don't smoke that shitty spice stuff.
Sensestamps, do they work? Has anyone on here ever tried something called sensestamps? I'm asking because, I can't find much about them and whether they actually work or not. Well, besides on the site
[MOD EDIT: No links to drug vendors please]
Anyhow, the only thing I've really found is on the original site.
24/7 drug helpline Hi

trippy Cd not working with herbal oils Hi to all, nice to be here, I have a friend called Ian, I'll call him "I" for short.
I first tried nutmeg oil last week with elemi oil:
nutmeg oil...20 drops, valerian..10 drops, german chamomile..2 drops, sweet basil 10 drops, elemi oil..15 drops.
and got nothing from it.
yesterday I increased the doses: nutmeg 60 drops, chamomile 5 drops, basil 20 drops, elemi 40 drops, and still got nothing.
I have an amazing collection of hypnotic journeys by the hypnotist Paul Clinton and they are quite cool, but I want to get to a lucid dream or a sombnambulist state, or a really deep hypnotic state, so I need to get psychedelic. I tried shrooms in my younger days but want to do it with herbs. I also tried listening to the journeys using weed, and that was totally fantastic, and vivid, but I don't want to chance taking something that could be mixed with krap, and I don't smoke.
Anyone know what I should do. up the doses? or try another mixture.
ps I took the oils using a needle to inject them into empty fishoil capsules, because the taste is unbearable, and drank a cup of milk.

50 pounds of seeds ~~~ I just received the 50 pounds of poppy seeds I ordered on Tuesday. These are unwashed and only air is used to separate out the hull fragments and debris and not water.
I was able to make four tall glasses of tea from one pound of seeds!
Today’s tea was very strong! ~~~ Whew! I bought some bulk poppy seeds from the bakery's behind the counter personnel and got 24oz. These are a new brand that I haven't tried yet and I'm on my second very tall glass of tea and the first glass was so strong that it burned & stung my throat on its way down! Sheesh, the power of these seeds are remarkable!!! The last time I got this high is when I'd taken 80mg of Methadone along with 70mg of Hydrocodone and roughly 60mg of Oxycontin all within a four hour period. I was hallucinating that night I was so high! I've never hallucinated on opiates ever before except for that night. I'd never knew a person could hallucinate taking opiates. ~~~~~
White mm Ok has anyone out there tried white mm and Viagra together and what results did you get ? As I'm going to a fetish bi party on sat night .
Cheers mr chopper
Are these too expensive?
Good morning, all ~~~~
I finally found a website that sells poppy pods, but they seem to be a tad too expensive. (Like $129.00 for a half pound of pods:crazy:). Is this the norm?
Here's the website that I found on these poppy pods: Any help is very greatly appreciated, my brothers,

Bad effects from DXM, when should I seek medical help? On Wednesday night I downed around 320mg of DXM. This was my first time ever using the drug and to say the least the experience for me was horrifying and painful. I woke up on Thursday with a pressure on my chest and my heart would beat fast randomly even when I was laying down and then it would sink so low and the heart beat was fairly slow. The pressure in my chest at first felt like maybe gas but I've been making myself blech w/soda and the pressure is still there.
A couple of times I felt the pain slightly under my armpit. I woke up today with the same pressure in my chest and now I'm considering seeking medical help but I don't necessarily want to unless I should be alarmed. I am feeling that maybe the DXM is still in my system. I had two major panic attacks during my trip so I wonder if that has something to do with it.
Has anyone else had trouble like this? The only thing I'm afraid of is having a heart attack but my blood pressure is fine and the heartbeat doesn't seem irregular. The pressure is also consistently in the same spot, it doesn't seem to change at all and I never felt it before I did DXM.
The bottle I drank was Robotussin Lingering Cold and DXM is the only active ingredient in it.
Thanks for anyone who has any advice to offer.
AMT got some free pills, will I like them? or will I want to vomit for 12 hours...Also is it rather stimulating? also a mild MAOI which is a bit worrying.
Diablo Spice So i bought a baggie of spice called Diablo, I smoked like 3/4th of the bag and did not give me high at all ._. Any ideas of why it didnt get me high? Ive been still smoking it to see if it gets me high and it doesnt
allergic to marijuana Everytime I smoke/eat marijuana, i throw up for hours and break out in hives. I continued to do it because the high helped relax me and helped me with my chronic pain that was keeping me from enjoying life, and sleep.
Recently I tried fusion herb, and queen bee herbal smoke, and the high was there and it helped with the pain without the side effects, great, except the issue is they are so expensive... i am willing to try making my own blend of herbal highs, what would you all suggest I order to make my own.. I can't keep paying 120 a week for 6 grams...
