Abstinence:

Complete cessation of product usage without substituting another

Bong:

A rudimentary water pipe (eg a plastic bottle) which allows the smoke to accumulate and be humidified by water or alcohol prior to its being inhaled. This process allows the THC pass directly into the blood through the throat, the tongue and the respiratory passages.

The high caused by this is excessive, because the alcohol and cannabis magnify each others effects.

This is a very dangerous practice, which leads to premature cancer of the tongue and trachea. (We have received testimonies from 18 year olds).

Dependency:

Difficulty in functioning without a product. Physiological state setting in after using drugs and leading to repetitive self administering, sometimes against one's will.

Habituation:

Necessity of increasing the dosage of a psychotropic substance in order to achieve the original sensations.

Habituated to using the product, accustomed to and desensitized by it, the user needs to take it more frequently and in greater and greater quantities. Despite the terrible consequences, fatigue, poor academic results, lying, stealing; he can only think about drugs, about buying them and consuming them.

The time required by a healthy body, which no previous drug use, to eliminate 50% of the absorbed substance.

Hash Pipe:

A sometimes graduated metal cylinder or clay pipe to smoke hashish.

Mixing certain types of drugs lead to the mutual increase in their effects. Alcohol is known to potentialize the effect of all other drugs.

Psychotropic:

Having an effect on the mind.

Releasing:

Many road accidents are due to this phenomenon as the drug user finds himself under the influence of the product and loses his faculties.

Snort:
