Please, please can anyone help-are these drugs? (photo)

[missmouse101]

My husband ate a sweet he found in our daughter's car. He feels extremely disorientated and unwell now. It m ay not be linked at all, but we have suddenly thought could the sweet have actually been a drug? Totally shocked, praying it isn't. Does anyone recognise these? Thanks so much.

Can you post the picture that you have that looks the same as op posted for us all to see thats it clearly crack?

What did he say it tasted like OP?

[llizzie]

Out of interest, I just googled 'what does crack look like?' and a whole lot of photos the same as the OP posted came up, so that is what it is.Image result for what does crack look likewww.therecoveryvillage.com
Crack cocaine, which became popular in the 1980s, looks like a small rock, chunk, or chip and it's sometimes off-white or pink in color. While it's the same drug as cocaine with virtually the same effects, it can be smoked, which gives the user an immediate high.23 Jun 2019

Earings& lipstick. The OP says that her post has laid herself open to shocking abuse and that should not happen. I remarked that it is obvious from the replies she got that the responses on this invite that sort of nastiness and it is unwise to post on the forum if she does not want to be insulted. I sympathise with her. She has been subjected to verbal assaults and I suggested that it might be better to use a search engine to get the answer rather than lay herself open to abuse. She asked a question of something of profound importance and what replies did she get?

If you want to recognise something you ask Google ''what does such and such look like?' and you will get a lot of photos of the item. I have not tried it with drugs, but it will tell you so many things about birds and plants you want identified, You can ask it from medical questions about symptoms etc to things like knitting wool and fabrics.. You put the question in the bar and see what you get in reply. You will not be called nasty things, that I can be sure of.

Threads like this make me think of a big pack of hyenas....

[Ineedaweeinpeace]

Crack cocaine definitely.

[missmouse101]

I have no idea how to 'ask Google' to identify anything from a PHOTO anyway. I preferred to ask actual human beings on Mumsnet in real time. That's why I did so llizzie.

[EarringsandLipstick]

@llizzie why should anyone have to be be insulted, treated badly and called all the names?

Regardless of the question someone asks, or why they choose to ask here (rather than Google for example), abuse isn't warranted.

Seriously 🙄

[llizzie]

If you do not want to be insulted, treated badly and called all the names, next time just google for them. All you have to do is ask a question on Google etc and you will get the answer every time.

You will get a whole lot of pictures, and information on what drugs are what and whether you will come to harm.

I thought from you post that your husband must be very old to just put anything in his mouth that he found. If it made him ill and he did not know what to do then he has only himself to blame. He should have spit it out when he found it bitter.

CBD isn't 'drugs' though. It's not even on a spectrum of 'drugs'. And noone here knows whether it was or wasn't cannabidiol. So maybe it was.

When my OH first tried CBD oil he went peculiar for a little while.

My final post on this. Husband is 52, daughter 18. We often drive her car, nothing abnormal there. We live in a rural small town which has an old fashioned sweet shop selling sweets in paper bags, which we buy sometimes. The photo shows a purple paper bag with a white sticker on to seal it. He drove her car, mainly to check it was ok before she came back, as it hadn't been driven for 3 weeks. Needed item from glove box, found sweet bag, fancied one and ate one. No thought for a second it wasn't sweets, why would he? Agree they look like pineapple chunk sweets

D had been to a camping party. They got stored in her glovebox. They are cannabis sweets. H is fine now, talk with D went ok. She is very upset and understands the seriousness of this and the implications of taking and driving about with illegal drugs

Pps who have called me miserable, batshit, a troll, a liar, a fanny of a woman, puritanical etc are simply trash and I pay them no attention. Anyone who thinks I am a dick regarding my being extremely concerned about finding drugs in my daughter's car, is not fit to be a parent themselves. Thanks so much to the lovely and helpful posters. You really helped when it first happened

Excellent post OP.
Its not uncommon to dip into each others sweets here! Its difficult hanging on to them on our house/car!

There is nothing wrong or weird in grabbing a sweet from a glove box when you're taking car/frequently use a family member's car.

I dont get why drug use has been so normalised on here, its an unregulated market for a potentially highly dangerous substance. Anyone having a reaction should rightly worried about whats the substance is.

From the reactions here, very wisely, responses from cbd to crack and everything in between.

Those blaming OP, when shes done nothing wrong! Just what? Not everyone has drug knowledge and thankfully some of the population dont have drugs in their lives and are not experienced in the nature and effects of them.

Those of you drug taking you do you, and respect that others take a very different view. OP was scared and scouting about for others knowledge and experience.

Its good that these issues are raised, as there are also many lurkers and pp who are now aware of this.

Glad all are well, and that chat was constructive OP.

[taylorowmu]

Why are you on MN asking this instead of a medical professional?

Erm; same reason you responded 2 days after the OP posted and didn't bother to RTFT

[GabsAlot]

if its cbd it wont be illegal not the end of the world -but maybe dont eat stuff youdont recognise esp whilst driving

[AntisocialMedia]

Hahaha

[FelicisNox]

Regardless of what it is you need to take him to A&E due to his symptoms.

Just tell them he ate something he thought was a sweet but is having adverse symptoms and you're worried it may be accidental poisoning.

If it is drugs he needs blood tests and antidote, if not, no harm done.

Why are you on MN asking this instead of a medical professional?

This is a bit like watching Waiting For Godot, 'where nothing happens, twice'. Only with added comedy.

Perhaps I’m a terrible parent.

Though my children don’t have “form” for lying and don’t have drugs in the glove compartments of their cars...

[MsMarvellous]

Anyone else spend too much time on "line eyes" threads and read cbd as 'clear blue digital'?

[Dizzywizz]

I don’t get why some posters are saying they are cbd sweets and legal - op is saying they are weed sweets, not cbd, and in this country weed is illegal!

[WhentheRabbitsWentWild]

Fair enough @HidingwhoIam .

[EarringsandLipstick]

@missmouse101

Thanks for the update. I'm glad both DH is ok & your DD understands why you would be upset.

Once you had fully posted, and it was clear they weren't sweets, I completely agreed with you & would also be worried & upset.

Sorry some comments upset you & I'm glad you're ok now. 💐

[Macca84]

My thoughts exactly, @BiBiBirdie
