Found drugs in my sons bedroom

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?

Because I can't give him the right advice without knowing what he's taking can I???

Let’s be honest he probably doesn’t know what he’s taking either!

If you’re in Bristol you can get it tested at The Loop.

Otherwise the only postal service is Wedinos… wedinos.org/

I’m not gonna lie it doesn’t look like any cocaine or ket ive ever seen. It doesn’t look like MDMA either - I’d probably echo other posters and say when he comes home explain what you’ve found and that you just want him to be safe etc. I don’t think a zero tolerance approach ever works and pushes kids away further.

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.

Yes through customs, Im sure he would have done that!

OP there are issues here about the drugs being in your house but also where in the supply line he is, he may just have bought some and not be involved in that way but along the line he is doing something that has involved exploitation and sexual and criminal abuse of children.

Looks like speed do me but could be any powder and some scroat has cut it with any old shit

It doesn't really matter what it is. It's class A so act accordingly.

Well speed, ketamine and MCAT are class B unless I'm mistaken

Did you tell him in advance you'd be going in and cleaning his room? It's quite the invasion of privacy going into a 19yos room like that.

?? What he lives in her house, I clean my children's room, because I can't cope with the mess they make. If his room wasn't a mess, she wouldn't have to clean it.
