BBC documentary looking at 'legal highs'

[Monkismo]

Some MJ substitutes really do work. I'm not saying which, just in case they get pulled from the market again!!!

You should investigate salvia, check out the youtube clips of it.

When I tried salvia I ended up just rocking back and forth on the floor screaming that I needed to listen to Babyshambles now or I was going to lose my mind. It wasn't a pleasant high.

[Mardy]

do drugs or don't, but don's piss around with 'legal highs'. Have the courage of your convictions. eh?

[Frames]

Took legal highs in 02/ 03 at leeds was great, Then at kendal calling in 08. All I got was a sleepless night and a massive come down which runined my sunday at the festival.

If we're going to turn this thread into pedants corner, food is technically a drug too!

Temporary insanity. I take it afterwards you never wanted to listen to Babyshambles again?

I've only ever done poppers, legal high wise.

Not sure what the fuss is about. First time I tried them I thought I was going to die, then after that they just got more and more pointless.

Hi there,

My name is Chris Alcock and I'm making a television documentary for BBC3 looking at some of the issues linked to 'legal highs' (herbal highs, party pills, etc). I'm keen to talk to people who use or have used legal highs, to get their views and opinions, without any obligation to be involved in the programme. If you’re up for a bit of a chat email me on chris.alcock@bbc.co.uk and I’ll get straight back to you.

Thanks.

waht incredibly lazy journalism this is.

Why dont you simply take some yourself and report on the results, rather than using rumour and hearsay from an internet messageboard?

No wonder the BBC is going down the shitter if they employ incompetent, lazy journos like you.

[russycarps]

Is this a joke?

It's good to research things like this before making a documentary.

It's lazy journalism if this is the ONLY thing he does but for all you know he could well be taking legal highs himself and recording the results. There are a great number of things he could be doing, with this just being one of them.

[pineapple-tea]

well, just so long as he is taking heroin too so as to be able to make a fair comparison then I suppose I will let him off

[mikeee#]

They're legal for a reason; they're that shite. A possible headache followed by the downer of knowing that you've just chucked a few quid down the drain for nothing. Don't take legal highs kids!

i have found a legal high that will beat anything legal or illegal.

Its called takk.. by sigur ros

[Red_Eye_Jedi]

I tried some legal stuff once.. yellow taxi? or some sh*te like that..

Well, let me just say. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!

Bugger all but a headache..

The Salvia Video's are funny

I'm probably not the right person for this, but Glastonbury is my legal high! I get the impression I'm relatively unusual in never having tried drugs or.. even a single puff of a cigarette! Beer and women are enough vices for me!! Anyway, Glastonbury leaves me buzzing in this mad dream world, who needs anything else when life is this good

Alcohol isn't a drug, it's a drink.

In my experience they are shit, and the ones that are good end up being made illegal.

herbal high pills are a disgrace. they literally just confuse the f**k out of you for a couple of hours and leave you lying in a tent clutching your stomach aswell as whatever is left of your dignity.

stay away kids. don't be a whopper and invest in some horsie.
