Across the country, increasing numbers of young adults consider club drugs a harmless enhancement to a night of dancing, club hopping, or concert going. In this video, young people describe how they learned the hard way that there is no such thing as a safe or recreational drug. For them, MDMA (ecstasy), GHB, Rohypnol, Ketamine, Methamphetamine, and LSD brought trips to the emergency room or to jail; brought depression, loneliness, rape, and, in the case of one high school senior, death.

Discussion Points:

• Why is it impossible to know what you're really taking when you ingest one of these drugs?
• Why do people feel the need to take other drugs with Ecstasy or after Ecstasy use?
• What are some of the short-term and long-term effects of club drugs?
