K2-Marijuana Substitute

 In Atlanta, Georgia, a teen age boy was hospitalized and fell into a coma; overdosing by smoking K2, a synthetic marijuana substitute.   K2 has become a popular form for teens throughout Georgia, as well as, many other states.  The herbal mixture of K2 is blue lotus, baybean and a number of other herbs.  The danger in this is that the herbs are chemically altered which can cause adverse reactions as was the case in Atlanta. 

 “ K2 does not get its potent effects from these herbs, but from two synthesized cannabinoids that are added to the mixture. Synthetic cannabinoids are very closely related to tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the chemical in marijuana which causes users to get high. However, because the chemicals in K2 are slightly different than THC, they are not covered by existing drug laws”. 

“Users of the drug say K2’s effects are almost identical to those of marijuana, but there are some slight differences. K2 produces less of a mental high and a much more notable body high than smoking marijuana. The effects are in some ways more similar to the high from eating marijuana rather than smoking it.”

There is no substitute for the high of life.  Up’s and down’s of life  will occur, but the quick fix of a high only detaines those feeling for a moment.  Eventually one will have to either deal with life or continue to substitute.   Chemicals only offer false reality and hope, legal or not.  Addiction treatment can help reverse the need for a substitute and help you discover what life can offer free from drugs.
