Newbie8868 2 Thanks	What do you think this is? My brother has not been himself for a long time. Yesterday my mom was cleaning his room and found a piece of foil under his pillow. My ex used to smoke heroin, but this looks and smells different. It smells like burnt sugar almost, is a rusty color, and flakes away from the foil. He takes adderall, but I know he takes much more than prescribed. My mom started searching and found a box with loose supplement stuff he bought online (stimulants), a scale, and empty capsules. I honestly thought he was maybe doing heroin because of the way he looks, and how he behaves sometimes. But this is all stimulant stuff as far as I can tell. Can anyone give me insight? I want to get him help. Posted: 12/24/2016 8:11 PM Received 2 Thanks for this Post
Freyja 27 Thanks	In Response to: What do you think this is? Hi Newbie, Could it be crack? My experience is more in the morphine , heroin, opium area. I hate speed of any kind. Can you ask your brother? Maybe others here have more experience with meth, crack and other stuff like that. Good luck, Freyja Posted: 12/24/2016 10:11 PM Received 1 Thanks for this Post
cathy 1539 Thanks SITE SUPTR	In Response to: What do you think this is? Another post from this site several years ago said that cooked heroin smelles like burned brown sugar. It could also be cooked oxycontin, another opoid. Posted: 12/26/2016 12:43 AM Received 1 Thanks for this Post
Freyja 27 Thanks	In Response to: What do you think this is? Hi Newbie, U forgot to add something to my earlier post: you can always tell if someone is on opium-based drugs ( heroin, morphine, codeine, fentanyl) They are very mellow and thei pupils are like pin points. Hope things are going well in your family. Posted: 12/27/2016 2:05 PM Received 0 Thanks for this Post
