- We hear from former ice users tell us their stories of how they became addicted including Aaron, a regular ice user who suffers from schizophrenia. We ride along with NSW Police as they raid a clandestine lab unknowingly located in a homeowner's granny flat. But after a drug lab has been dismantled, who is responsible for cleaning up the toxic residue left behind?
This provocative series takes us to the frontline of Australia’s drug war on the drug known as Ice. Through unprecedented access, we follow the stories of Meth lab busts, front line importation arrests at the docks with Task Force Polaris, decontamination of suburbs by the cleanup crews, forensic teams tracing precursors and toxicologists investigating human impact from passive Meth cooking.

#Documentary #epidemic #drug
Meth used to make me see dead people standing all around me blankly staring almost like a movie. It was the darkest part of my life. 15 years sober now.🙏
THATS WHY ITS CALLED THE DEVILS DRUG THIS DRUG INS NOW JOKE
Congrats! Awesome
That's called Sleep Cycosis! You let the drug do you instead of You doing the drug!
Ur lying! Meth didn't do that to you, u just have mental health issues! Stop using meth as an excuse for ur pathetic self!
So true it can open your third eye that shouldn't be opened ..
Oh but it's ok for corporations to dump raw chemicals into the water systems with total Impunity because of profitability$
Why are you changing the topic?
Its been an epidemic here in Calif for 40 years, and all theyve done is make me i d for sudafed and tell me im not able to get pain medicine. No kids here are on pain meds, theyre on street stuff.
It’s something above 90% of her ion addicts start with pain meds. It’s how all my friends in high school became drug addicts they started with prescription meds. These meds shouldn’t be prescribed easily and only fort short periods if time
That was the backlash to the opiate "epidemic" ....street/synthetic opiates have exploded...every time our "authorities" try to tackle/fix something it's usually too late and the "solution" seems to be worse then the original "problem"
Blah blah regurgitated bs Mexican meth is garbage anyone that thinks that shit is good is mentally challenged
Here in England, you can't get more than 2 packs of ibuprofen at once per person.
@@monikaherman4006ibuprofen isn't anything to make drugs with or to get high off of.
Ya my ex husband had schizophrenia and smoked ice the paranoia made him aggressive and pissed me off I begged cried for him to stop I moved and divorced him couldn’t handle the drinking his mom enabled him he was a narcissist also didn’t gaf I was ready to end my life living with him he said I was crazy lol
Narcissism and substance abuse are like peas and carrots. Some are rotten before starting and some become that way after using. There are also a lot of naturally overly empathetic drug addicts after they recover. It's either one or the other it seems.
as much as i using i’ve been sober for 3 months. not by choice but by force and i’m still goin strong
Keep going, you’ve got to want to be clean as well
Probation.
My wife and I are crack and heroin addicts. We’re functioning addicts. Bills are paid. House is clean. We ride our Harley a lot. We travel and we scubadive.
Dude, keep it up, my guy. I sincerely hope you do.
FYI
It's just as bad if not worse here in the U.S
Who is the world's highest user? The United States?
I had a long dance with alcohol. I should be dead. I am grateful I could not use stimulants without severe anxiety. Anxiety save my life. I thought it was destroying it. It comes on when I am not doing right. I am 4 years sober. Sad thing is I moved where I thought there would not be a lot of drug related problems. Pop. 165 and still I have been told the trashy people living over the hill supply the whole area with meth. The DA knows but does nothing. At least I can grow my herb in peace. Fingers crossed.
That's amazing, I bet you have been on a hell of a ride. I'm so happy you got away from there. Small towns are the worst for the craziest things happening, in my experience as well. Your comment jumped out at me, I relate to most of what you said and I hope you have a good support system. For me, I find animals very comforting ❤
I dealt with alcohol too, brother, and it was bad. Saw maybe half a dozen doctors (including addiction specialists) and they all called me a liar to my face.
They would say a guy as young as me couldn't have the drinking problem I did, and said I was a junkie looking for pills. Never ran any tests to prove their claims, just ignored what I told them. I was mid to late 20s.
My alcoholism actually masked hepatitis. I had an enlarged liver, and me and my family doctor both safely assumed it was the 40oz bottle of liquor a day. Found out I had antibodies for it years later lol.
It turns people into creeps
Pretty sure they were creeps to begin with
Never turned me into a creep
Many are pedos
Yup I'm a fly on the wall when I would use 😂
Gets them hyper sexual, i dig it😎
They say "lithium from batteries, which will burn the skin on contact" and then they show an alkaline battery - which does not contain lithium. So much for the drug-makers being "amateur scientists" - the journalist who make this video are incompetent journalists. By the way, at the time when Albert Einstein came up with world-changing scientific hypotheses in his _annus mirabilis_ publications, in 1905 - he was an amateur scientist. He had not yet secured professional employment as a scientist. To survive, he was working as a patent clerk. I'm not trying to tell you I think it is safe to live next to a illegal drug lab. I wouldn't want to live there. I just wanted to give you an idea about the education and knowledge of the people who made this movie. These are not knowledgeable people. They are people who simply repeat what other people, tell them, people who they think, correctly or incorrectly, are "authorities" on a subject, as opposed to people who are experts in a subject.
I agree with you on the fact that the people who made this documentary don’t have proper knowledge on this subject. But I think what they mean by amateur chemists is the fact that the vast majority of people who used to manufacture domestic speed found a “recipe” that they followed, like shake n bake, rather than knowing what is actually happening from a molecular perspective, like a real chemist would.
You sound like you're on the gear yourself, m9
I agree completely, I'm sick of watching ill informed documentaries spinning the same nonsense. No wonder people are clueless if this type of material is their source! Watched a doc about coke in the eu and it completely lost me when it started talking about how it gets cur more and more at each part of its journey lol! Crack is rife in the uk and I presume across the eu so bashed sniff wouldn't be any good to anyone. We regularly see more than a tonne being busted en route and I don't know any cartel who has the time, the locations and the people to cut those 1000+ kg blocks into 2000+! When 500kg was a big bust maybe that practice occurred but not in the 2020's
So how do you make it then asking for a friend lol
@@Prettygirl444evr So how do I make - what?
Ok, for one, meth and coke are never cooked in a spoon! You only use a little water, Heroin is the only drug that is heated for iv use. I know from personal experience. Also, I used for many years, and never got paranoid, heard voices, or anything like that. I did, however, have a terrible temper and rage issue if I got really upset. Having been clean now for a few years, my brain is back, I got my teeth fixed, and am pretty healthy by God's grace. I feel for the young pschizo guy in this, he's in really bad shape, and I knew the way he was talking, he wasn't ready to quit, and it is not helping!
coke only coked in a spoon if u got junk crsck...gotta get that extra trash outta it.. chasing that first one.
U can cook coke in a spoon and use it for iv use unfortunately
They're saying you mix them with water but don't add heat for iv... I imagine it's all a personal preference and depends on quality and cut agents as well as the chemical of choice and where it originates. Black tar is gonna need a different method than number 4 China white. Mexican brown and gray rock junk will need heat probably, pure h won't need any heat and will dissolve in water on its own. I always heated oc time release name brand, however it's not needed
Simply put, yes you can use both intravenously. Meth in an IV is the most extreme but it is water soluble.
People mimic what they see on TV. Most really don't know what theyre doing.. Heat is added to clean whatever dirty water that is being used, but if you're using dirty water, that process should be done before adding the substance.
Some substances become more dangerous after applying heat, like most pills. Adding heat will cause some fillers and binders to triple in size.
FYI Just as bad here in USA. Our poor children keep loosing so many that mean everything to them. 😢✌️😢
That's why they said they are the world's second largest consumer. Did you miss that?? They obviously acknowledge the fact that we here in the U.S.A. are the number one consumer in the world.
We just od on fentanyl here in the USA
Mexicans ice is trash... The shit they got is probably pretty close to the real deal shit
Brother i was a functioning user. Never got in trouble financially stable responsible and all that. Then i dated a girl that wanted me to stop told everyone and shit went hay wire. Literally if i never got with her i wouldnt have had to stop. Life in shambles and had to build from the ground up again. Havent been able to do it ever since. Paranoia off the charts and everyone making shit harder for me or shaming me. Joined the army and now im taking orders and doing dumb shit day in day out just to rebuild my name back home. If it werent for her and her need for control of everything i would have been better off.
thats so shity... she had no right to out you like that unless you were ready. Makes me think she had some demons she was suppressing and to make you look horrible made her look like the hero smh sick
When you're clean long enough, you won't just stop blaming others or even out right thanking them instead, because being clean and having control of your own life is worth any amount of shame or "work", hard work.
It's a tough climb out.
One sniff could lay a working dog out cold
Tom Carroll is such an inspiration.
I dont know why in America the smoke shps sell the pipes to smoke these drugs they should be illegal too
It's by design. The powers that be want this epidemic. All about money. They make money when users buy it, they make money on the paraphernalia, they make money when users enter rehabs, they make money when users go to prison. There millions of people that depend on addicts to keep their income, e.g judges, attorneys, clerks, therapists, doctors,the schools that give them the degrees, cops, the mechanics that maintain their vehicles, the manufacturers that sell them their gear, the factory workers who make their gear, corrections officers, the probation officers, the lab workers who test for drugs, the companies who sell drug testing equipment, the manufacturers that sell the equipment, the workers that build the testing equipment, all the construction workers that build all those jails, rehabs, courthouses, schools, labs, and factories, all the engineers that design all of those buildings, all of the maintenance workers that maintain them, all of the secretaries that work at them, all of the banks that handle those businesses accounts, all the people that work at those banks, all of the restaurants, stores, car dealerships, hotels, gas stations, bakeries, grocery stores and other businesses that all of those employees spend their income at, all of the employees that work at those businesses and the list is never ending. Not to mention the money the dealers spend and infinite downstream revenue that entails.
Synthetic is the killer of the future...no more depending on illicit crops...smh...a steady supply that can only be capped by the supply of man made ingredients..fentanyl/m*th is a 1-2 gut punch!😢😡
God, getting stuck listening to a crackhead ramble is the worst.
The people who made this documentary and even the police in it don't fully understand meth, and how to make it. Which is a little scary in itself. Meth isn't going to go away. It's too easy to make I can have shake made in 30 minutes or ice in an hour. The only thing that can be done is better education for the public. That and fixing the economy and quality of life in the place you live.
Happy people don't use meth. Only miserable people
"it's not the ice" I hear the voices more when I'm on ice, but it's good to hear them so I know what they are saying.....he doesn't seem to realize they aren't saying anything.
I heard one user, who was a truck driver by trade, say if he was using ice and driving, he’d could be up for a week or longer. 😳😳 Let’s hope he was exaggerating.😳 that can’t be safe for him, nor for anyone around him.
Aw Aaron prayers for you please stay on ur meds and off drugs for ur kids your wife and def urself man I’ve been the wife of someone like Aaron it’s miserable
SMOKED......
The video game 🎮
They made it like this
Dude wondered out of the next house while the cops are raiding his meth lab .." Are you looking for me" lmaooo
@20:00 its not the ICE mate, its never the ice
I had no idea, know nothing about drugs
Must be nice
@@PupcakesDogCareRight 😂
lucky
The social worker looked just like his client in the red sport shirt .
I will stick with my bud thankyou 😮😮
Great content!
37:15 the drug squad is making their own megamth factory x}
I hate meth
We need ice for war preparations. If war broken we can use it for food supply & medicine.there not enough food to eat .at leat we can use ice for 1 week one time
Yeah..
...I don't like math either.
I hate how drug addicts blame u they get high and say it’s cuzz u had a fight with them lol ugh I got bipolar and the ups and lows for me along with a dealing with a drug addict omg I couldn’t deal with it
I hate how 'Normies' treat people that use, exactly how they say the user is treating them!!! Some kinda queer reverse psychology crap!! 💯💥
Wonder with the so-called "Moderate" Meth user
😂😂😂 that guy at the hospital is loyal to ice. He is aware of what is happening around him but he is not to blame ice for any of it. Its just sad.
Let's make LSD great again. Kid tested Mother approved.
31:13 the brain befor and after a small story has been built follow the future
I am so confused by Aaron - after 30:45
... Definitely different ways to cook dope, them materials are completely different from the ones that I have seen used. Thats insane
I doubt they're going to give the complete recipe to make it in a such a video.
@@MaterLacrymarum yeah definitely not
I admire those law enforcement.but here nothing they don't do thier job ,they are blind and deaf...
This is just so flipping sad. Why can’t we get this right? ✌️💜✌️
People have been doing drugs since the dawn of time.
Government floods city’s as nd country’s with poison on purpose. Dea as well. These agencies are not for the people. Also Gov trades guns for drugs to cartel and Mexico. It’s not what you think at all. People need to wake up.
Pseudoephedrine, the main ingredient of meth, should be banned.
It's used in cold medicines, available in pharmacies.
Meth should be banned
See what prohibition has created?!!
"Maybe a woman's perspective gives me an edge, tee hee!" Like, why keep that in...she's basically justifying her position to herself because she doesn't think she deserves it.
Those who benefit from affirmative action usually know it, and end up feeling bad about it.
Like the female cop I made CRY when I told her she couldn't move me if I went limp she was so tiny.
And the winner is drugs
That first driver she’s hot
Wasn’t the drugs my ex was on that ruined our relationship it was how he treated me when he drank that was worse lol and he was a narcissist and it’s the fentanyl where they getting that from to add to the drugs ? In Xanax pressed pills starts with doctors giving pain meds then street pills then meth or whatever
Tru on valium and Xanax methadone never took met I took speed crack heroin Fentanyl es ket love me pills trying to get off the drink worse than all above but am a pill 💊 head need them to stop benzo fits with left me with epilepsy lol watching this afr takn me 90mls of methadone 6 d5s and 0.5mg Xanax yum
meth is nasty it's all shitty synthetic crap it's not what it was years ago not that it was ever a good thing but this shit is making people crazy I've seen people take 1 hit and there in complete psychosis it's scary and cheaper than fentanyl so it getting way worse you can find that easier than a bag of weed 😢I worry for the next generation of kids seeing already now 18 yr olds hooked they don't stand a.chance
Try the p2p way and use very little ether and sodium hydroxide also due not use acetone for fucks sakes
You need to monitor where the illegal drug came from ..border security rebuild Military enforcer...
Singapore has a solution for all of this…
What's that?
@@Mini-Me google "Misuse of Drugs Act (Singapore)" and read the wikipedia entry.
Well, didn't they "cane" a guy there?? I think they are pretty hard on drugs. Hope so.😊
Seizures didn’t know ice caused that til I got divorced it wasn’t a seizure disorder like my drug addict ex said it was the ice
Yes, I do realise. I just wanted to highlight how stupid some laws are.
'It takes a certain kind of person to profit of someone's pain'
True.. most of them work for the goverment or police 😂
Ice ice baby too cold
I want to be so mad at Aaron he’s got friends and family that care about him don’t want him to die but he just doesn’t get it just like my ex husband only so many times u can cry and beg and make them want to live for anything too damn hard to deal with he’s gonna push everyone but his mom away and hate himself for it
OW MY GOD THIS IS SO WRONG... PEOPLE PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND THAT WE MUST TAKE AN EXAMPLE AT PORTUGAL. IN PORTUGAL MOST OF THE ADDICTS STOPPED USING DRUGS BECAUSE SOMETHING IMPORTANT CHANGD ...
this is a Media Lie. Durg Use did not get less in Portugal
@@johnnylangen2839Yeah you are right Portugal has not changed.my brother and his wife were offered drugs in every bar and even in the markets and the beach every couple of hours.so the problem is still there but worse.
The only reason those guys volunteer to clean up is they hope they find some meth that got left behind!! I know...I know!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Had a meth addict girlfriend once who dug through the carpet 😂
@Network126 Yeah I knew her. She'd be high and I'd dig through her carpet!!! She had pretty black carpet on hers!!
Sorry, but who's the "they" that don't want us to know?
No I have not tried ice I only smoke expensive cigars seriously 😒 I am a cigar junky 😩🥺😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That's Fn gross. You stink. Now where's my meth pipe?
😅
why did they not have there guns when they were doing thev raid lol
Making ice isn’t funny it’s serious problem but that guy said never seen that before on my life was so f funny lol like sure dude the 1000 or so bullets that match the gun where u live
Man, I did that crap once. Why would anyone want to do that stuff?
Get some nitazene. Enjoy yourself😆
Is this new
6days
2016 you're welcome
I don’t understand how they get stuff to make stuff like this it should be illegal
They're mostly common substances that have legitimate uses.
P2p can be made dozens of ways with dozens off chemicals
22:48 Putin
Lead and Mercury? Bullshit!!
43:15 this propaganda is giving me reefer madness kinda vibes.
