Columnist Subhash Kateel says officials and the general public need to look past the headlines about "zombies" and "cannibalism" and consider the fact that Florida is one of the worst states in the country when it comes to funding mental health services.
(First off, you have to be nuts to live in Florida to begin with)
If the "Causeway Cannibal" story isn't ghoulish enough, a Maryland student has now admitted to eating his roommate's brain and heart. There's been no word yet on a motive in that fatal attack.
Bath salts – which can affect users the same as cocaine, LSD and methamphetamines –
(Which all have completely different effects, AND different effects amongst different people, and way different effects when taken by insane people. Just like booze and coffee.)
have been banned in Pennsylvania since August. The success of the ban depends on whom you ask. Drug treatment officials say bath salts are still pretty easy to get via the Internet and head shops.
Suspected bath salts cases in Pennsylvania include:
- A man who broke into a house because he says he was being chased by electricity
- A man who set fire to his girlfriend's apartment and attacked firefighters when they arrived
- A man who assaulted a state trooper and didn't seem affected when a stun gun was used on him.
(Wasn't the same guy that was being chased by electricity, was it?)
gross pictures here:
So far, no confirmation that bath salts made this guy a cannibal. He might have just been insane.
Everyone in the United States has been wondering, whether the “cannibal man” in Miami who attacked a homeless person was high on bath salts or not. Well the answer provided by the licensed doctors and therapists at Journey Healing Centers, is yes, bath salts might have be the cause.
(Very professional.)
Legal drug can cause a phenomenon said to make a person act like a wild animal.
“It does horrendous things to you internally. I'd never experienced anything like that," Sharp another user told CNN. "It really actually scared me pretty bad."
"I just felt all kinds of crazy," said Sharp, now 27, of Tennessee, who says he hasn't used bath salts in months.
One of the major reasons due to which the authorities are not able to completely ban the bath salts is that they are packaged as household items, helping the makers to dodge the authorities. However, it would prudent to stop the distribution of bath salts ingredients collectively to a single vendor.
The only good news out of this brutal incident is that the authorities have finally decided to take the matter of bath salts seriously. The Senate recently passed a ban included in the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act.
"Let this be a warning to those who make a profit manufacturing and selling killer chemical components to our teens and children: the jig is up," Sen. Charles Schumer."This bill closes loopholes that have allowed manufacturers to circumvent local and state bans and ensures that you cannot simply cross state lines to find these deadly synthetic drugs."

I tried ivory wave or mdpv having previously experimented with mephedrone san pedro cactus lsa dxm among others. The powerful stimulation caught me off guard and I was racing around camden town for hours like a madman. The compulsive nature of it was terrifyingly strong. 60 MG WAS A STRONG DOSE BUT I CONSUMED BETWEEN 1 AND 1.5 GRAMS DAILY FOR A MONTH. This resulted in hospitalisation and being sectioned on a mental health ward. Vivid hallucinations and intense paranoia lasted weeks after stopping. I genuinely feared for my sanity.

I am a 19 year old male, with experience in mdma, mushrooms, cocaine, amphetamines, 2c-e, 2c-b, dmt, lsd, ketamine, spice products, marijuana, and various pills.
Onto the story. I picked up a 500 milligram vial of 'bath salts'. Brand name 'Eight Ballz'.
I had to visit my mom, so i decided i would test out this new substance while in her town. I got to her house, settled down, and decided to go with a walk. Went to a park and settled down behind some trees, making sure nobody would see. I dumped out a very large line, as i later found out in later experiences. Not sure how much mdpv was actually in this particular blend, but I cut it out and insufflated it.
Very little burn, and within 30 seconds, felt a rushing, 1.5-3 minutes into my adventure, felt as if I had insufflated the largest dose of cocaine in my entire life. I walked around, experiencing one of the greatest euphorias of my life. Easily cutting out oxycodone. Possibly a tiny bit more euphoric than MDMA, but far too speedy, (in my opinion). I progressively felt as if I had poisoned myself.
This soon progressed to extreme nausea, leading to me dry heaving in the middle of the street. Shortly after drinking a small amount of water (drinking or eating anything is extremely unpleasant on MDPV, I have found.) Soon after this episode, I calmed down enough for the euphoria to shine brightly again. I was singing in the streets to my music playing, talked to a friend on the phone about how amazing I felt, and visited an old girlfriend. Attempted sexual relations, but heart was racing far too fast, and I knew it would be extrememly dangerous, so I decided on returning home.
Fortunately my mother was asleep, so I slipped into my room quietly and attempted sleep. T+3.5 hours.
As time went on, the euphoria dissipated and left me feeling empty and depressed. Eyes unable to close for more than 3 seconds top. So I laid in my bed, hating my life, unable to sleep until approximately T+10.5 hours. A horrific price to pay for astounding euphoria and joy. Would need alprazolam or diazepam to attempt again in an effort to sleep if I were to try again. I do not believe it is a good idea.
I'm going to stay away from this substance, as future adventures left me fiending for days, giving in multiple times and staying up for 2 days, combining this with marijuana, cigarettes, MDMA, and alcohol. Should have researched more, but I had an invincibility complex at the time. I research on just about everything else online. Safety first people! Do not attempt to experience anything like this as I believe I should have been in the hospital or taking anxiolitics.
Anyways, just thought I would share with and warn people of my experience. Safe tripping! <3

There are more user experiences. Usually I think the police are exaggerating are the government needs more prisoners, but not in this case. Baths Salts aren't fun. Stay away.
The DEA banned the sale of the chemicals used to make the drug in 2011, stating that it was an “imminent threat to public safety.” Because bath salts are less expensive than cocaine or ecstasy and can be made cheaply in kitchens, the drug has become popular with adults and teens alike. Bath salts are still sold legally in many areas in liquor stores, convenience stores and head shops, though many states are trying to criminalize the drug, as Louisiana did last year.
“Bath salts” are actually a drug called MDPV (methylenedioxypyrovalerone) mixed with Mephedrone; users say its effect is much like that of methamphetamine. The substance is either injected, smoked or snorted. After getting high, users’ body temperatures soar; it also raises blood pressure and heart rates. The drug’s other effects include paranoia, hallucinations, and agitation. Using it just one time can cause hallucinations and intense cravings that result in days-long binges which can end in suicide.
