It's only really known in cessation and specialists circles at the moment as it has not spread yet. Fortunately it probably won't be too prolific due to the main ingredient being POM (script only) in most places the big worry is that it becomes the next methamphetamine I didn't mean to rag on Charlie (still don't) but saying that beer is on a par with some of this stuff is laughable I'll include a link so people know what I'm talking about but it's pretty NSFW

I saw that krocodil mentioned online ealier this year, it seems completely messed up. I hope meth never takes off in the UK, too. Most hard drugs are the worst, but depending on the individual, any drug (including alcohol) can screw their life up. People react differently to different chemicals.

I know a few people whose lives would be much better without alcohol, people who use alcohol to hide from their fears, to forget about their worries, people who've had affairs or gotten into trouble with the law because of alcohol and a couple of people whose lives are completely ruined because of booze. It's a ****ty drug in my opinion with very few benefits. I don't doubt drugs like heroin and and crack are worse but when you look at the number and range of 'feel good' drugs available, alcohol is up there among the worst.

Thread resurrection!
I”ve been trying to work out how much I spend on booze and cigarillos as I’m planning on cutting down how many hours I work so need to reduce my expenditure. I’ve estimated it’s about £300.00 a month. That’s a fairly normal amount, right? Also, haven’t had a smoke for a week so that’s a saving already!!
