Contrary to what your kids may tell you, K2 /Spice is Addictive

Based on the clinical course in the hospital by a 20 year old casual user – this is what you can expect:

Day 1: The first abstinent day –  symptom-free.

Day 2: Increased internal unrest. By the end of the 2nd day, you may sweat profusely for the first time.

Day 4-7:  Strong desires for the drug, nightmares, profuse sweating, nausea, tremor, and headaches. Minor hallucinations such as “standing beside yourself.”  Electrical shocks and “twitches”, followed by a feeling of numbness, Blood pressure increases and heart rate as high as 125/min.

Day 8: The symptoms start to subside.

Day 10:  Intense irritability begins.

If you are a teenager and are experiencing withdrawal symptoms.  Tell a trusted adult immediately.  Each K2/Spice user has different body chemistry and uses the drug under different circumstances. Rather than try to go cold turkey on your own, it is always safer to call experienced professionals to help you.
