The use of inhalants for inducing intoxication is an old practice. Many ancient cultures attempted to predict the future by having soothsayers sit over fissures in the earth from which escaped natural gases. As they inhaled these fumes, and stupor developed, the intoxicated soothsayers were supposed to foretell the future.Although there is evidence that inhalation of intoxicating vapors was part of several ancient cultures, the use of “inhalants” in modern American society took root during the 1960s and 1970s.

Prior to 1700, the use of alcohol was primarily a family-controlled activity. The family meal included beer and wine, and boys as young as 12 drank... [Read More]

The illegal use and abuse of substances by high school students continues unabated. Underage drinkers consume massive amounts of beer, wine and liquor each year, and children and adolescents use or regularly abuse mind-altering drugs such as marijuana, amphetamine, LSD, cocaine, crack, and various other “controlled substances.” They are not only violating laws by taking these drugs, they also are gambling with their health.Similar problems exist for another series of drugs that are growing in popularity among high school students – anabolic steroids. These drugs are not taken to alter the mind but, rather, to alter the body. Their use... [Read More]
