Teens Getting High On Salvia

by Christine on June 26th, 2008

Always on the look out for a good time, teens are turning to a new drug. In the past couple of years some teens have found the Mexican herb, Salvia. Salvia is a powerful hallucinogenic herb with psychedelic effects. And it’s very potent. A teen can begin to feel the effects within just minutes of smoking it. According to experts, this drug works 10 times faster than cocaine.

And it’s legal.

Yep, you heard me. Teens can legally buy this drug in most states and many countries. A drug that causes kids to blackout, lose their balance, get in to accidents and distort their vision can legally be bought by anyone. They can purchase it on the internet. There are tons of videos on YouTube of kids on a Salvia trip and it’s not pretty.

So be on the lookout for this herb and any changes in your kids behavior. And make sure your teens understand that just because something isn’t illegal (yet) doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous.
