 AURORA
TURNS UP THE VOLUME ON CLUB DRUGSFebruary 12, 2001 Aurora Police Chief Larry Langston read from a 1977 Newsweek article in which cocaine users suggested the drug was safe, even glamorous. At the time, that was a common belief, just as many young people today who use Ecstasy believe it will cause them no harm, Langston said.

Viewer CommentsCity, State: Charleston SC CommentsDon't let anyone tell you that GHB is like a Vicodan. We were told that it would be a nice way to "wind down" after the evening festivities. Thank goodness we had some to literally carry us to our car and get us home. It was a very close call for ending up in the ER. People need to know everything about this drug so that the less than ethical people can't get away with lying about its effects. There is nothing in this world worse than being conscious but unable to communicate to say yea or nea for a ambulance. Perhaps there should be a required drug education class at some point in a young person's life City State: Covington, La CommentsOk yall we just called the Louisiana poison control center and she told us (I swear) that it is like taking a big valium and that you cannot overdose on it and that it does not cause tremors or headaches! This is bs. Where can we find someone who knows what they are talking about? City, State: new orleans la CommentsGHB is a horrible drug!! Please stay away from it. Last summer I dated a guy who got me to try drugs. I was always against them, but I had just gotten out of a long relationship and was really depressed. This guy got me drinking bottles of Robotussin, taking 6 pills of Exstasy a night and worst of all he got me to try G. He had been taking G for 2 years. He told me it was good for me and I believed it. This guy would wake up take a few caps and all day long take it non stop. When he didn't have it he could not, eat he stayed locked in his room alone, and had serious withdrawals. I didn't realize how much I was taking it either. After I stopped seeing this guy he got caught with G buy his parents, he went in rehab 3 times. Also I was still taking it all of the time. One night I was at a friends house and we were all taking G getting messed up. Well I had grown a pretty big tolerance to the drug and after about 10 caps I felt nothing. After a few more caps I passed out. I started puking in my sleep and could not breathe. I don't remember going to the hospital, I don't remember throwing up. I felt the effects in my body for 6 days after and lost 10 pounds. I am lucky to be alive today.

Ken Shortridge was the first speaker who retold the story about his son Caleb, and how he died from an overdose of GHB. In the last two years, 50 people in San Diego County had club drugs present in their bodies at the time of their deaths. Emergency medical personnel, police, students, teachers, and more attended this conference. sponsored by "Communities Against Substance Abuse" or CASA. The community called for an increase in education about club drugs such as GHB, Ketamine, Rohypnol and Ecstasy, and over-the-counter medicines being abused by youths today. Especially needed, the group says, is for parents to become educated about what drugs are popular with TODAY'S kids, and how to recognize signs of abuse. Parents send their kids to all-night raves, thinking, "There is no alcohol. It is safe." NOT TRUE says the group! More often than not, a veritable banquet of club drugs awaits the kids as soon as they walk in the door. Local news stations airing the conference included ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News, KUSI News, and a few Spanish news stations. News Stations with links to this conference:
