Ketamine Catches BBC Scotland's Attention
Crew stalwart and emerging trends in substance use specialist Katy MacLeod talked to Newsdrive on Radio Scotland on Wednesday about Ketamine and the increase in use reported by Druglink who published DrugScope’s 2011 Street Drug Trends Survey this month.
Regardless of new trends, it's interesting to see that the big issue of why people take substances at all is given a fresh forum when a "new" drug hits the headlines. BBC's Bill Whiteford seeks understanding as to why an "anaesthetic" like Ketamine might be used, which must seem completely bizarre when disassociated from the community that uses it while assuming the drug will always be consumed to the logical extreme of its effect.
You need only glance in the door of your local pub to understand why a "disinfectant" like alcohol is used and that the notion of getting "off your face" is certainly not isolated to the unusual or illegal drug.
Have a listen and give us your thoughts.
