Designer drugs refer to drugs that are created in a lab. Now we're up around to thc because of selective breeding practices. But we know that any marijuana coming from xyz plant is probably going to have about this much thc in it, and that's not alterable, nearly as much as something that's just created in the lab.
Designer drugs are a growing concern, often created in back-room labs without any quality control. In this episode of the Counselor Toolbox Podcast, Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes dives into the complex world of these lab-made substances. With thousands of designer drugs already in existence and new ones appearing all the time, understanding their impact is crucial for both professionals and the general public. Dr.
Snipes breaks down the effects of some of the most common designer drugs, including synthetic marijuana and bath salts, highlighting their potential dangers. She also touches on legal gray areas, discussing substances like kratom and salvia divinorum, which may still be legal in some places but pose significant risks. But it’s not just about the drugs themselves; Dr. Snipes emphasizes the importance of community resources and grassroots efforts in providing support and mental health counseling.
She offers practical advice on handling legal drug use within programs and underscores the necessity of staying informed through reliable resources. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complexities of designer drugs, their effects, and how communities can combat their spread.
