Self harm is increasing and follows the curve of psychotropic drug use.

It is one of the many side effects of legal and illegal drugs.

If a person self harms, it is imperative to know what illegal or legal drugs he or she uses. Effectively, if someone has the bad idea of prescribing this person a psychotropic medicine when the self harm is the result of a drug addiction or an adverse reaction from taking a legal psychotropic drug, it could lead to a suicide attempt or trigger a serious mental illness.

AEROSOLS Nitrous oxide and other pressurized gases such as those contained in whipped cream canisters or computer anti-dust sprays also have hallucinogenic effects. In a few seconds they produce excitement, dizziness, euphoria, loss of consciousness and affect the central nervous system through lack of oxygen. Moreover they are inhaled under pressure and can provoke lung frostbite and vocal chords injuries, (eg. immediately after taking this drug the voice becomes lower.)

POPPERS Volatile nitrites have similar effects to nitrous oxide. Moreover they can provoke panic attacks, heart palpitations and headaches. They are also responsible for deaths by anoxia. They are vasodilators frequently used to relax sphincter muscles. They are carcinogenic and provoke serious immune deficiencies – such as AIDS.

STAIN REMOVER Stain removers are derived from ethylene. They are hallucinogenic but their effect is more calming, unlike poppers and aerosols, which are more stimulating. They cause damage that is neurological (deafness, tremor) and intellectual (dementia).
