Club drugs
Nature:
Club drugs include alcohol, LSD (acid), MDMA (ecstasy), GHB, GBL, ketamine (Special-K), fentanyl, rohypnol, amphetamines and methamphetamine. They are used by teens and young adults who are part of a nightclub, bar, rave, or trance scene. Raves and trance events are generally night-long dances, often held in warehouses. Many who attend raves and trances do not use drugs, but those who do may be attracted to the generally low cost, seemingly increased stamina, and intoxicating highs that are said to deepen the rave or trance experience. Recent hard science, however, is showing serious damage to several parts of the brain from use of these drugs. Background:
