Regarding the question on inhalant use, please do NOT inhale ANY types of fumes or chemical vapors as not only death may occur but also Traumatic BRAIN INJURY (TBI) as with my friend who was huffing at the age of 12, now in her 30s.
Other risks of inhalant use include sight loss/blindness, heart/liver/kidney damage, seizures, limb spasms, hearing loss and even death, all of which can happen after the very FIRST time of use.
