addict or not, its a very BAD drug.

Ketamine, categorized as a “dissociative anesthetic,”1 is used in powdered or liquid form as an anesthetic, usually on animals. It can be injected, consumed in drinks, snorted, or added to joints or cigarettes. Ketamine was placed on the list of controlled substances in the US in 1999.

Short- and long-term effects include increased heart rate and blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, numbness, depression, amnesia, hallucinations and potentially fatal respiratory problems. Ketamine users can also develop cravings for the drug. At high doses, users experience an effect referred to as “K-Hole,” an “out of body” or “near-death” experience.

Due to the detached, dreamlike state it creates, where the user finds it difficult to move, ketamine has been used as a “date-rape” drug.

1. dissociative anesthetic: a drug that distorts perception of sight and sound and produces feelings of detachment (dissociation) from the environment and self.

Hard to give a yes or no answer to that KI, but given the pain addiction has caused you already, I'd probably be very cautious?

Me personally, no way in hell. What good can come of that?

I try and seek out friends that have the same morals, ethics as I do.
I am by no means perfect and I am willing to give people a chance but,
given what Anvil just told us about this particular drug and this person does this several times a week??

Sorry, not my cup of tea.

How much of a true, reciprocal friendship is really possible with someone in that state?
I'm with sungrl on this one. What good can come of it?

Yuck. It's awful and dangerous. I'd stay away from that person. I can't be around people who do hard drugs anymore.
