Found drugs in my sons bedroom

[HollyAnnLee]

Last night i was cleaning my sons room (he's on his first lads holiday) so thought it would give me chance to clean his room thoroughly because he lives like a tramp

He has a book shelf and there was a book on his computer desk so I've gone to put it back with his books and a little drug bag has fell out with white powder
At first I thought it could be cocaine but I've had my party days I know what it looks like
Yes I did stupidly dip my finger and taste a crumb of it it doesn't have a taste it's a fine white powder but tastes chalky does anybody know what it could be? I know what ketamine looks like and it's deffo not that and it isn't cocaine either so what could it be?

There are a few testing facilities that will tell you what's in it

You know there's problems beyond what's in the bag. I don't envy you that convo.

What do you mean about problems?

Your kid is taking drugs.
You're snooping (you said you were cleaning but that's not what he will think).

MDMA powder maybe

How old is he

How do you know it isn't coke? Can you put a pic on?

That would be more crystalline than fine, chalky powder.

Apparently 👀

OP, are you sure it's not just cheap coke that's been bashed into nothing?

My first thought was that if it was drugs, surely he would taken it with him on holiday? Cocaine and MDMA taste awful, definitely not chalky. I believe ketamine is the same.

It could be coke. He might just have really shitty coke. Ket and MDMA would be more crystalline shards.

This is it

Yeah that's why I'm confused because I've seen drugs in my time 😅☮️
I know Ket/MDMA is like shards
But then it's not cocaine either so he's acting like he has no idea what I'm going on about and I'm getting vague replies

Just about to turn 19

I think he's either put it somewhere to hide it and forgot about it or hidden it after taking it and then blacking out where he left it but I'm not sure

None of us can tell you what's in that bag.

It could be GHB. It could be Cocaine. It could be chalk.

Send it off to a drug sample service or flush it down the loo.

Looks like a gram of badly cut coke.
If your son is old enough to go away on holiday without you then he is absolutely too old for you to be cleaning his room without permission.

Maybe speed or crystal meth? Hard to tell if there's little rocks from the picture. Mdma is generally more golden and in crystals, could be ketamine because you'd usually crush the shards before taking it.

That's coke.

Doesn't look like any Coke I've ever seen. Plus it would taste nasty and turn your tongue numb.

Like a previous poster said if it was coke or MDMA it would taste awful, same with ketamine. Snort it and tell us what happens 😆

He's an adult
Leave it where it is or have a fun night

😂😂😂
I wouldn't take something if I don't know what is is and my party days are over I'm unfortunately 'old' (41)

If it was anything like coke/ket/mdma I'd probs have a chat with him about it to be careful etc but not knowing what it is is worrying me

It's speed

Really curious what coke is supposed to look like?

Because that is coke. 100%.

Where do you live OP? In my part of Scotland that is what coke looks like. Maybe we just have shit coke here.

That's just shite coke cut to fuck. It doesn't taste of anything because his dealer is taking the piss out of him.

If it was mandy, speed, mcat etc you'd taste it for sure. Foul.

Don't bother sending it off to be tested. Wait until your son comes home, and ask him. Then, read him the riot act and tell him if he EVER brings drugs into your home again, he can fuck off and find somewhere else to live. Don't get sidetracked by him whining about you going in his room.
