Nitrous Whippets
Who would think that household products would be use as a drug just to get high, it is crazy and now there are more and more children out there who think it is cool not knowing that it can kill them or damage vital organs in the body. Helium is another inhalant used not only to blow up balloons but, to get high from also when inhaling helium you can quickly become unconscious, you can rupture your lungs and drown on your own blood, you can develop a cerebral gas embolism and die. Even though inhaling from a balloon is not as dangerous from inhaling from the tank you still can suffer the effects, when inhaling it replace oxygen in the bloodstream, If an helium abuser is helped in time the will require sessions in a hyperbaric chamber to regulate the oxygen and blood levels in their body for recovery.
Inhalants are substances that are sniffed for their mind-altering and behavioral effects, a high last between 15 minutes to an hour. Street names for these inhalants are: Bolt, Locker room, Ram, Pop'rs, Snappers, Whippets, Hardware, Climax, Rush, Butyl, and Helium. Solvents are chemicals that are used in a diluted form and are frequently used as cleaning liquids this is an inhalant they are vapors that evaporate when exposed to the air and they need proper ventilation. Aerosols are any chemical that can be sprayed like: hairspray, air fresheners, cooking oil, deodorant, insect repellent most have warning labels telling you of the dangers of their use.
Nitrous Oxide, (laughing gas), is used as an anesthetic by dentists. Also used as a propellant for whipped cream dispensers. Users when inhaling whippets may be breathing in 10% oxygen, a level that will cause them to pass our or suffocate. Amyl Nitrite is a clear, yellowish liquid that sealed bulb. When the bulb is broken it makes a snapping sound: giving it the name snapper or popper. It is absorbed into the cloth and inhaled. Amyl nitrite is used for heart patients because it dilates the blood vessels and make the heart beat faster.
Butyl Nitrite is packaged in small, brown glass bottles labeled room deodorizer, liquid incense, and liquid aroma. These can be sold in a variety of names like: Pop'rs, hardware, pig pop'rs, ram, locker room, and rush. It effects included decreased blood pressure, followed by an increased heart rate, flushed face and neck, dizziness, and headache. 2/3 of kids think that trying inhalants once or twice is not extremely risky, that's unbelievable! everyone that tries it does not die but you can damage vital organs or impaired when using it over a period of time. Side effects of using these inhalants are:
1. The user may feel short of breath
2. Any combination of drowsiness, fatigue, double vision.
3. Headaches, followed by loss of coordination, lack of concentration, lapse or loss of memory and unconsciousness.
4. Inhalants can cause loss of appetite, sudden weight loss, loss of muscle control in the arms and legs, spasms, and seizures, lead poisoning, and can cause cancer.
5. Heart palpitations, chest pains and heart failure.
Signs of Use: Violent and impulsive behaviors, uncontrollable laughter, if they seem drunk, slurred speech, red or runny nose, nose bleeds, sores or rashes around the nose or mouth, chemical odor on breath and clothes, nausea or vomiting, hiding rags, clothes, cans, sandwich bags, empty containers, paint or stain marks on the face, fingers, clothing or under fingernails, constantly smelling clothing sleeves, sitting with pen or marker near nose.
If you know of anyone with this addiction please get them help immediately before it is too late. Helpline numbers are listed on my site, beware of your children if you suspect them of inhalant abuse get them help. Treatment for this addiction takes longer than people that suffer addictions from alcohol and drugs, most inhalant abusers require 120-127 days of treatment because it takes 14-30 days for the chemicals to leave the body. Most suffer irreversible brain damage and limited use of limbs or bodily functions, some might have to be institutionalized.
