- A new synthetic opiate has killed dozens of European heroin users. Nitazenes, which are up to 300 times more potent than heroin, are increasingly showing up in the continent’s drug supply, sparking fears that they could fuel a surge of overdoses, on par with North America’s fentanyl crisis.

Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

pure heroin is actually relatively harmless as long as you don't overdose
@@ThePainkiller9995 Well, strictly in terms of its effects on the body, sure. But it's extremely addictive properties is what makes it so harmful. Heck even people given opiates for legitimate reasons like chronic pain end up very addicted to them. Problem is they're just so ridiculously effective and there's nothing that can replace them.
Yeah I’ll just stick to my beer thanks 😊
Crazy to think that back in the days, we used to have to worry about our drugs being laced with Heroin. Now we have to worry about our Heroin being laced with Fentanyl.
Now you have to worry about your fentanyl being laced with nitrazenes.

Once - The Drug dealer took Hong Kong for 156 years.
@@kchankchan Yes. Maybe so. But a very different time ago as well as a very different set of Victorian values which no longer exist. From back in the old days before Opium use and sales were restricted or illegalised. back when London had it's Opium Dens or Opium Houses.
You could call the would be supplers, compertition. But the war is not against compertition but against the free flow and free uncontrolled supply or flooding of a country's own regulated supplys. If a group with-in a country had a ware house the size of a mountain brimming to the cealing with nacotic drugs legally with in their own country. Then that would likely be no problem if bussiness was conducted legitamately. The war against drugs is not against those but is against offenders trying to by-pass federal importation control laws. IE illegal smugglers totally unprepraed to contribute to a health care system or doctors bills ETC when the suffering start to go really wrong. In the case of the illegal smuggle (competition) their supply is a form of victimisation rather than proper medical help. Their interests are purly money and not health. So sorry. But yes there has been a 'war against illegal drugs'. You could benefit from reading some of the storys of those serving long prison sentences.
yer well england decided to wipe chinas population out with heroin they made them cultivate it then made them use it for 100s of years
I won’t sugar coat this or make it reader friendly.
My brother died yesterday from a possible drug overdose on my grandmothers couch. He died with his cousin sitting beside him, uncle in another room, and grandmother another room down. Before they realized it, he was gone! A few seconds -minutes it went from simple Tuesday to a crime scene. Once those drugs enter your body, without proper medical intervention- YOU ARE DEAD! Someone who didn’t know him, love him, or care about him gave him drugs that would kill him ALL for a quick buck.
I am currently sitting outside still unable to process. I don’t think people understand the severity of this situation. Drugs do not discriminate. Death does not discriminate.
If there is anyone out there struggling with addiction get help. Anyone in recovery and seeing the signs that you may possibly relapse, get help!
If you think your loved ones won’t understand try them or reach out and get help. NO ONE can understand, listen, or work with you if you don’t REACH OUT and get help.
You are not alone. You are worth it.

Compared to Nitizines, heroin can be considered harm reduction.
It definitely is. This is all a direct result of not allowing plant drugs to be legal.

My little brother ordered off of the dark web and he passed away from a fentanyl overdose due to a laced pill. He was 32 years old...we are from the US 😞 Fentanyl ruined my family's life...I wish more than anything for addicts to get well before they lose their lives to these awful drugs.
His choice.
@@magdalenawieszczek1309 he and I both grew up in an abusive household...he had PTSD just as I did. It was not his choice to die he had no clue what he was getting. But I see the empathy now a days in others can run dry. It's a real shame. His death was ruled an accidental overdose because no, he did not know there was fentanyl in the pill.
@@missmarie3351 his choice to take drugs, do not find excuses..no one forced drugs on him
Don't worry bout this bot. Your empathy and strength shows. We have power in numbers, and it seems the world is waking up to the truth of corruption. I hope you're well. Don't let the bastards drag ya down! God bless ✨️🙏
Im sorry to hear that. Its a dark sad thing to go through that, to see it, to be in that scene at all. I had a family member and a few friends wither away and die from it. Its not a good time. Ill have ptsd from it forever. Still havnt found a way to deal with the flashbacks and insomnia from it myself. Doctors dont help they just tell me to breath and take melatonin.. its a bit to much.@@missmarie3351
”because i dont want to feel” Man thats sad
Because he does not want to feel , their are people who do not abuse drugs who FEEL horrific pain every waking hour of the day because doctors do not want to give pain medicine even for a broken bone. That is sad. The addicts don't want to work just lie around and get high and when they are not doing that they are stealing to support their habit that is another way they hurt people. They leave a trail of misery wherever they go for other people. . My uncle used to steal from his mother. If they want to do it that is their choice but they are hurting other people and that is not okay. Stop, babying the druggies.
Don't want to feel what? ... Oh
@@feschber anything, when You try opiates to relievie your Pain, physical or psychological It works like a charm. You do It a few times and all is good until you go on your first streak, 2 weeks high all the time and when your out you get withdrawal and now you feel all kinds of pain when you're not high and now you need the drug to just feel normal. Even if you go past withdrawal there will always be a feeling of missing something important
Well, eventually, getting high just makes you numb so that tracks.
You don't have to die to be dead.
who would have thought that we would be saying "can we just have old fashioned heroin back?"
This is all by design. Governments are behind the drugs trade. This is a war on socety´s lowest. It´s the biggest lie going that Afganistan produces nearly all the west heroin supply. The country that supplies the Acetic anhydride, is also a key producer without the Acetic anhydride, there would be no heroin.
I guess legalize that too😢...
How about not using drugs to begin with you utter simpleton.
Yeah, but it's true.
I have known a couple of heroin users in my local hospise here in denmark since I was homeless for 13 months in 2002/2003, only seen 2 smoke it!heard of a couple of stories on how their 1st time was a pure moment of bliss, then they got hooked after that shot!this stuff looks effin scary!we dont have druggies on the sidewalks though!
Most of the people are slaving away just to survive. Its actually a miracle that it has not happened earlier
The miracle may be thousands of people working to prevent importation and supply plus use.
Truly 🌹
Because weed and alcohol lmao. You won't get stuck on heroin, if no one introduces you to it. In the US, that's the pharmaceutical companies and doctors.
@@MultiSciGeek You stated 'the pharmaceutical companies and doctors are who introduces people In the US to heroin use'. Almost as if you blaimed or accused US pharmaceutical companies and doctors of being one of the key groups behind the US problem. But are there therefore no regulatory laws in the USA? Is heroin not a controlled substance as it is over here in England requiring a licence as well as qualification to distribute or prescribe. So therefore heroin or opiates is a prescription only drug which can only be prescribe by qualified and licenced dorctors? So how is it that they as you stated are behind an epidemic of illegal uncontrolled non qualified use by those poor supposed addicts. The doctors are only permitted to prescribe for medical reasons and so any opioid prescriptions are for servea medical needs. The US pharmaceutical companies are not pushing street drugs or drugs for illegal purposes. Their licence to supply is dependant upon their supplys being to only prescription cases when the drug is prescription only. Those junkies you see in the video cooking up their junk on tin foil is some derilict environment are users of the underground black market buying from unlicenced non qualified criminals. Is that not how it is really? See that guy at 10:47 using strrt methods! If a qualified doctor prescribed and instructed him to do that then the doctor could be struck off and lose nearly $100,000 dollars per annum legitamate income.
Stay away from any drugs.

@@blacksilverchair3315 More like the drugs themselves hijack the brain's reward center, and it's never that simple. I could hook you up with a bag of X drug, a totally normal person, and after that bag, you'd probably just live in the street and your brain's effort spent trying to get more of the drug (after the withdrawal starts). Addiction is never simple. If you're addicted, then you likely need medical help to help stop, and want to stop.
@@conspiracyeyes1682 The effects, dangers and precautions for any hard drug use has been documented well over a million times. If you can't have the capacity to do the research on said drug before you take it, that's no one else's fault but your own.
I hate seeing people saying that addiction isn't a choice, yet those same people willingly took a dangerous drug. Actions have consequences.
Same with marijuana users. Some swear they aren't addicted until they run out then they throw a fit. Whilst also blaming things on everyone but themselves.

it went underreported, it is not a new problem. The internet makes it look like a new issue, but its been around for a long time
@@bencullen8480 There's nothing natural about these drugs.
@@Leo-pv9zi did I say the drugs were natural? No. You obviously don’t know what natural selection is so I will clue you in; natural selection refers to the dying out of stupid people, and only a stupid person would take this drug, so naturally, they will die out. There are many instances of natural selection and taking dangerous drugs is definitely in the category. Let me guess, it’s probably someone else’s fault and these people wouldn’t be dying if the drug wasn’t invented; see that’s the thing about natural selection and how it only affects stupid people; if they didn’t have this drug, they’d find something else. Crazy that this needs to be explained really but then again maybe you’re in the category so the IQ level isn’t quite there. Good luck.
I was using heroin for 18 years and been clean for 2+ years now, I watched the Opioid pandemic slowly turn from Heroin into fentanyl, what happened was the dealers start cutting the heroin with it and in no time at all the users need the fentanyl more than the heroin. They start to look for the fentanyl because heroin isn’t strong enough and doesn’t stop enough of the withdrawal from the fentanyl. Most of the users that switch from heroin to fentanyl don’t do it because they like fentanyl more they do it because they will be dope sick if they don’t. Most heroin users will tell you they want pure heroin but you can barely even find it in America anymore and if you do it’s weak heroin. So glad I am not a prisoner anymore.
DEALERS cut reg. Heroin with Fenty it gives the so called heroin a " bigger hit" a user gets a bigger hit from their wht they THINK is heroin its a way of making them " loyal" to certain dealer and the " word" gets around tht dealers heroin is MORE POTENT insuring the dealer $ and then the dealer mixes more and more fenty in their supply then the high content heroin gets cut with Trang. A horse tranquilizer because users think " nodding out is a sign the heroin/ fenty is "great" but it kills the tiny blood vessels around the injection site and when users find a " great" injection site they keep injectioning in the same site CREATING AN ULCER or " honeyhole" it gets infected with staph ppl dont have basic personal care HOW CAN THEY care for a gangerous ulcer on the street and when they FINALLY go to ED drs dont treat with respect they see them them as " drug seeking addicts" which are the lowest of low in society not THE SICK DYING HUMAN they are they are someone's child / parent etc and the truth is MOST ADDICTS don't want to be addicts they are AFRAID OF GETTING sick the with drawl from opiods is AWFUL ( I personally have gone thru it I have a spinal cord injury thts why I'm prescribed pain rx) but the withdrawal starts where your cold freezing but SWEATING at the same time the most intense burning muscle aches ever and I've broken my back withdrawal is worst you can't not find a comfortable spot your antsy like nothing you have ever felt before then the nausea and diarrhea start then when you have zero left in your colon and your dry heaving at the same time you become dehydrated and begin to see things your b/ p drops dangerously low and you have been awake now 7-10days and your body has begun to eat itself you lose up to 25lbs I did the proven treatment tht WORKS is a gradually stepping dwn the opioid dose with personal therapy job training giving ppl hope because addiction is TRAUMA+ ENVIRONMENT + PERSONALITY + DNA= ADDICTION pure and simple where I live putting addicts in jail is an industry some entire small towns economies depend on addicts going to jail repeatedly this is how it works twn arrests in 2022 1 person for drugs they arrest 3 ppl in 2023 they NOW can apply ( even if those ppl didn't live in community and were passing thru) for state and federal funds CLAIMING drugs and drug "crimes" have gone up 150% in his small twn ( even if drug amrita was reside in a baggie) and he will get funds ( those funds come from $ seized from drug dealers ) he may choose to hire a cop or buy a worthless toy like a drone the police dept has no training to use but if he chooses to hire a cop tht cop has to live and pay rent somewhere has to buy groceries somewhere ALL THT BOUGHT WITH GRANT $ FROM SEIZEX FUNDS FROM DRUG DEALERS so the government NEEDS DRUG DEALERS without them tht cop gets let go etc the " war" on drugs WILL NEVER BE SOLVED another thing is there is not enough jobs to fully employ entire generation of males and there is still an undercover fear of PIC in some communities and they prefer them locked up and caught up in a system they can't get out of
Good herion gives you a way bettrr high tho. Fentwnyl makes you nod out too much. You enjoy the buzz for like a hour then fall asleep or die. Atleast with herion you can enjoy the buzz much longer without completely going out. Depending on how much you do.
I’m sober now, too, but I remember when fent first started popping up in the area my friends & I grabbed from in the mid 2010s. I hated it at first, didn’t enjoy the high at all…I’d end up passed out almost immediately, wake up & need more. No real euphoria. But the more I used it, exactly like you said, I ended up needing it just to feel “normal” & not be sick. By the end, if I didn’t turn into a comatose zombie after a line or two, I didn’t consider it worth doing. That was normal to me, after years of doing it. Insane.

Yeah heroin and crack is huge in UK but not so much in Europe; you still get heroin addicts all over of course but very little crack. Especially in eastern europe, huge majority of homeless on the street are alcoholics. In UK there's barely any, they're all drug addicts.
I’m a paramedic in Glasgow and my colleagues and I often know there’s a bad batch doing the rounds certainly before politicians but fairly often even before the police. IVDUs will do the most they can to hide from the police but we often see them at their very lowest point. They phone us when their friends are dying in front of them. Most of them know we don’t want to judge them, just help however we can. We issue take home narcan kits which contain enough naloxone in a pre filled syringe to take most regular users right through into cold turkey. We have begun again in the last few months getting calls saying they have given the entire syringe and the person began to wake up but they tanked again. All we can do is attempt to give more (IV access is likely to be incredibly difficult for us on someone who has bashed the hell out of their veins for years) support their breathing to avoid hypoxic brain injury and bolt to the hospital. It’s heartbreaking when we meet people who tell us how they’ve lost friends, partners, parents and sometimes their children to dodgy batches mixed with who know what.
NHS is part of the government - government created this problem
I was an addict in Glasgow for 20 years. Out of interest, how do you administer the naloxone if someone has run out of veins? Would it be an IM injection, or a spray to target capillaries in the nasal, or anal, passage?
Do you not have access to the naloxone nasal spray in Scotland?
@@raoulduke344 SAS gives out IM kits that contain 2mg/2ml naloxone. That officially 5 doses. IM is the only kits we have to hand out. Police Scotland and some of the harm reduction teams carry the nasal sprays. The nasal sprays are good because there’s no risk of uncapped high-risk needle stick injuries. The nasal spray is fast but they tend to be lower doses, I think the last one I saw the police use was 0.8mg. That’s a double dose but it holds the pt over until we get there. I used to work with a SAS veteran who was particularly good at jugular access for IV naloxone in some of our more long term users as very very few attempt to mess about with the jugular vein. Scared the 💩 out me trying it though!
ETA I think some of the harm reduction teams will also hand out the nasal sprays if you ask.
@@xrfordgal the police and harm reduction teams do. However we tend to go IV if we can, we have enough practice to be somewhat needle ninjas when required! If not it’s a double dose IM and supported breathing to hospital. It’s the hypoxia that’s so dangerous . The police can’t secure an airway and give o2 and ventilations
It’s bad here in Canada too in a small town here it’s creeping up everywhere
I started doing drugs years ago as a teenage, got addicted to fentanyl. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was diagnosed with cptsd. Fentanyl addiction actually destroyed my life. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 4 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Thanks for sharing your story. That's rough I sympathize. Save your health save your mind. Life is better without heroin, fentanyl, alcohol and cigarettes. And you have more money in your pocket. God bless everyone who has rejected the devils intentions to be addicted to alcohol and cigarettes etc which can cause so much damage to health. I will pray for you all.
Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Congrats! I'm really happy for you that your mom decided to help you. I always admire those who beat their addiction. Knowing it's possible to fix your life knowing there's people out there that have done what I thought was impossible gives me hope I will make it through as well. Those who share their experiences don't know how much it helps when you're about to give up, it gives you the strength knowing somone who actully know what it's like to go through this tell you it's possible, it's not the same somone telling you you can do it when they have no idea what it's like, but hearing somone who knows what it's like that helps a lot since you understand it firsthand and made it out gives so much hope. so thanks for sharing.

You should be worried. -from Canada
I used to push a lot of opiates, only pharmaceutical ones. Back before all this pressed and powdered fent everyone was using fent patches. Not many people were dying, now everyones dropping from pressed fent and nitazines. Its not a huge issue in Montreal as it is in other provinces. It's really easy to just get lots of dilapidated
@@4-Methylaminorex In the US you can't getting anything but street fentanyl. You can go in with an amputated leg and they will tell you take an aspirin and walk it off. I am terrified of getting an injury and have been putting off dental surgery because they won't give you ANYTHING.
@@Steve-ev6vx I just had 2 wisdoms removed. I got nitrous, 5mg midazolam 100mcg fentanyl I IVd. I was given 20 5mg percocet. I have tolerance even though I don't use opiates anymore. I went through them in a day them got 40 5mg oxycodones. Pain relief only starts at 50mg for me. Used them all went back said I need staying power they gave me oxyneo which is Canada's useless solution they used to replace oxycontin. They did nothing. Now mind you all this pain was caused by a follow up infection I got, it had to be drained and re stitched. If not for that infection the pain was very manageable
@@Steve-ev6vx do you always spread misinformation or just today? If you don’t look like a pill seeker or act like one, and you are in pain, they will take care of you. Fentanyl is administered regularly for pregnant women. Wisdom teeth usually get Valium and Ativan, depending on the place. If you aren’t acting like a tweaker, and you’re in pain, you will be given pain meds if it’s appropriate.
@@kaneeasterday7478 That is a lie. Cancer patients are being denied opioids now, people in hospice are going without. Some people still have access, but it's a total crap shoot. There are a million videos out about veterans and elderly patients being cut off of their meds for no reason.
I almost died to this in January, I was aspirating and had a cardiac arrest due to hypoxia, my girlfriend managed to resuscitate me with CPR until the paramedics arrived. I developed ARDS, was 5 days in induced coma and 3 more days in the ICU, luckily I have no signs of brain, heart or lung damage after the incident. Clean since
Please stay clean. My sister died 3 days before Christmas 2023 from a fentanyl OD. We miss her every day. 🙏

After getting clean.. filling the void is the worst part always brings me back i felt that.
Nitazenes requires special test to be detected. I have learned that narcan and rx’s similar do not work well in reversing.
T)
I’m now a defense attorney but for 10 years I was a probation officer in Massachusetts. I remember when the transition from heroin to fentanyl started. First it was that heroin was cut with fentanyl. then over about a 12-18 month period, heroin disappeared. My last few years as a probation officer not a single person tested positive for morphine (the most common metabolite in heroin). It was all fentanyl. Overdoses rose like crazy. Incredibly sad.
The war on drugs is a failure. The transition to fentanyl and the staggering overdose deaths that followed is a direct result of the war on drugs. It must end !
You should come visit Oregon where we surrendered and legalized everything. In a couple of years things are 10x worse, addiction is way up, OD deaths are way up. We're getting ready to admit the error and re-criminalize drugs to give the police the power to try to control the situation..
Its because Talibans got Afganistan. They are muslims and they kill anyone who produce or sell anything related to drugs alcohol, because its HARAM in their religion. World was fine with heroin when Americans Brits and whoever else was there... Please watch documentary how talibans are dealing with drug addicts... if USA and every other country copy their system there would be no users...
This crap has been going on for decades...there hasn't been a real war on drugs. All bullshit.
@@bobaloo2012 waterbed effect - decriminalisation will not cause people to start using drugs, but it will attract drug users from elsewhere. Plus it makes the drug use that is going on more visible since users no longer hide from the cops.
@@bobaloo2012ODs are up everywhere. What we need to do is create legal injection sites where the government supplies clean heroin to users.
Where opiate addicts can come twice a day to get their dose in the presence of a few medical professionals.
They didn't legalize it anyways, they decriminalized it. There's a big difference.
As an American with 15years sober and no friends left from that time, I hope the UK handles this differently then the US did. I’m so thankful I made it out before fentanyl hit our area. Please learn from our mistakes, let the millions who died teach you something.
I'm 41. I did all of that in the Mid 2000s, after getting out of the military, until 2015.

I'm glad I got help 12 years ago, before Fentanyl started killing people.
I'm 9 years out myself & beyond grateful that Fent, Nitz & Tranq weren't around throughout my time. What's happening now is so sad.
@@Melanie_Star seriously. I'd likely be dead today had I not gotten help in 2011. My daughter was born in 2012. And because I wasn't getting high anymore, I didn't OD when my 22 month old daughter and only child was killed in a car accident in 2014 when, her MOTHER decided that texting was more important than actually paying attention to the road while she was driving. She wrecked. That wreck caused the death of our child.
Had I been getting high, I guarantee you I'd be dead right now. But I wasn't. So I'm not.
Tbh, I'm not sure how I've made it this long. Been the worst 10 years of my, life.
Its crazy, i was a heroin user more than 35 years ago.
This stuff is crazy. They need to make changes to the law and stop these synthetics getting into all countries.
I know its hard, but this stuff should scare you straight.
Well sadly the law makers are still so uneducated about drugs that they think weed is on the same level as heroin. There's no way they'll be able to recognize the danger coming from this
I'm glad vice is doing drug documentaries again.

This is pure ignorance, most people are testing their drugs from what I’ve seen. It’s natural selection in a way, if you aren’t gonna test it, your playing Russian roulette. you just HAVE to assume it’s all fentanyl.
Learn the facts about which drugs are which. You may come into some pain in your life one day and it's not all the same. There is a lot of ignorance provided by puritans in the war on drugs who lie and say that beer is the same as moonshine. It is not. And you have to find out the appropriate dose and have a safe supply, you learn this by talking to people who have experience. There are so many drug poisonings that happen for people like you who stay away mostly and then one day try it without being taught the basics. Coffee is a dangerous drug also and will cause a heart attack fatality if you take the wrong dose of caffeine. Knowledge is what will keep you safe, not being pure. There is no such thing as pure drug free, our body is made of chemicals.
There is other ways for you to get hooked. I got into an accident at work and injured my right side of my body in 2012 and since then ive lived with pain and after 46 different medications in 3 years just to avoid morphine, i had to start on morphine and now im hooked on morphine which is just the same but different name.
So hope you never get injuries/chronic pain.
it's the drugs who find you. either through injury like the person above mentioned, but there is also a specific kind of lost individual that drugs attract, as part of drives for escape and self-destruction, coupled with low self-control. it's not just any kid who hits a blunt to experiment
inkel cope
Only a matter of time. i tried raising awareness for this nearly 3-4 years ago, urging test kit manufacturers like DanceSafe to develop kits for Isotonitazene, metonitazene and other etazene analogues, aswell as raising awareness on drug subreddits for it for months if not years. Etazenes have been available on DNMs wordlwide for atleast 3-4 years now, and on Clearnet from RC suppliers/manufacturers in China.
Its a shame this is one of the only big articles on it, despite this being a known issue, bound to take over, for years.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Congrats on your recovery. Most people don't realize that psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.

Try Kadian and taper of SLOWLY. methadone almost killed me
I still don't get it why there are places like needle swap stations and etc. Doesn't really push the problem toward solution is it? Society needs a solid awakening to get the message thru the thick stupidity of humans. It's all cries and tears when loved one is gone due to drugs. But ask yourself, what i did to prevent this?
Congratulations you should be very proud of yourself.
I hope you have many happy years ahead and hopefully eventually being free from Methadone as well
Look up the vitamin c method. You’re better off tapering down to as low of a dose you can first
But if you’re not ready to be off it, don’t do it. You will go through withdrawal and have intense cravings
if you know even a little about how the drug market and addiction work and are connected to each other, it just makes you sad how governments around the world are handling the problem
You think this isn't allowed/encouraged/facilitated by governments? Think maybe the reason US left Afghanistan is the heroin profits fell from the change to fentanyl? Maybe needed big pharma to profit from new drugs? Few of those in power are anything but self serving.
The goverment is in on it, 100%!!
Yep. Handling... - they created the problem.

Pardon me but I have no knowledge of drugs and the users of drugs, but selling a drug that kills your customers makes no sense at all.
A constantly depleating resource eh?
I watch kids going and coming from high school behind my house doing joints/gummies/crack.Then attending classes. Lucky teachers eh?
There will be no shortage of customers, just new younger ones.
Moral of the story - never trust a drug dealer.
i think its because of side contamination of other chemicals used in the synthesis, most pure produced drugs aren't as dangerous as the ones that get passed around second hand and are produced in house etc.
for example people tested north korean drugs and they were the purest in the world, very rare to find but hard to over dose on those
And now you understand how powerful of a tool this is for China.

For my euro homies: Sounds like its already started there tbh. Brace yourselves. I was a teenager and young adult at the start of the opiate crisis in america. Lost alot of friends that I wish were still here with me now. And even got caught up in it myself for a time. Dont make the mistake of believing that it only happens to {{insert people your biased against}} because if you're caught off guard, it can and will take people close to you and no one will come out untouched. :\
Luckily for me, when we were young 20 years ago we only had weed, X, coke, K, hydro/oxy and shrooms to play with. No fetanyl or spice synthetics back then
Things are already like this for a long time, can still remember about 10 years ago seeiing those big traffic signs (in Amsterdam centrum) you could tow behind your car to usually have something about the traffic on them like this way is closed take follow this route or whatever, but now they were saying dont buy heroine as there was something wrong with it dont know the excat message anymore but it was because some people died and almost died within a weekend because of bad heroine so the city put such signs up for a couple weeks. I excatly believe the caught the dealler selling that stuff aswell but not to sure about that.
on a another note the Netherlands goverment also provides some hardcore heroine addicts with heroine so they get clean heroine as there isnt that much of a market so the heroine out there is crap and it also helps these users to somewhat get a life and dont go out stealing or always thinking where to get there other hit. I dont imagine you could do this in USA as there are way to many of such users but here it works quite well.

Preventing deaths isn't giving these people an actual life. People who are simply existing as addicts for 30 years - what exactly are we trying to save? Is it hope? The futile hope that they will turn their lives into something?
We all know how unlikely that is - that first injection created something that can likely never be fixed. It's sad but even with treatment there is little to no hope.

He was 26 and well to do, also doing well, but he screwed up, getting that fix from a street supplier. At least, it was not suicide. It would have been worse for his parents. It was hard enough, that way, to bury him. Never what parents should do.
Can't overdose on Marijuana, yet until recently it's been classified as a drug with no medical benefit and could not be studied. Imagine if all the resources used making Opium more potent had been used figuring out how Marijuana can have similar affects without killing people or making them physically addicted.
And before anyone else says it, yes, we could end up making a deadly form of synthetic weed. That's why I say, don't panic, do organic!
@@billg.7909 Yeah it's called Spice
I’m 29 and never touched a hard drug in my life and I plan to keep it that way. Ive seen what they do to people in the streets of Harlem and the Bronx where I grew up.
Don't knock it
Till you try it
"I just didn't want to feel."
That one spoke to me where I was. When my mom died, she was on opium solution and there was a bottle left. I had just enough of myself left to send it for disposal. I'm addicted to caffeine and nicotine - that would have been a point of no return.
Do you drink alcohol?
@@GrandEmporer See that’s how some people get caught up in the trap. They try a drug once and then again and again and the cycle continues.
@@larryc1616 Rarely but yes I do. Maybe a few times a year.
The fact that we get free videos on TH-cam by VICE News is truly a gift; keeping the education and knowledge alive.

@@Eyes_of_Oryx what hes trying to say is that we should be grateful that vice puts their documentarys out for free in general instead of making us pay for them
