CHEM TRAILS AND DEPRESSION - IS THERE A LINK? For years researchers have been looking for clues as to why such a growing percentage of the population is experiencing "depression" and other mental ills. New fact finding bodies are finding more and more evidence that the aluminum particles being sprayed into the atmosphere on a global basis may be hazardous to our mental health.  Perhaps it is time to put a stop to this spraying of toxins until the long or even short term effects on health are made more well known.  |

Drug Facts and Statistics The fact that Tennessee is bordered by eight states makes it a location of choice for the transporting of illicit drugs. Tennessee is a major transit point for drugs, and the state is not a source point of the drugs, except for some marijuana that is grown in the state. Most drugs such as, cocaine, meth, cannabis, and heroin, are imported from Mexico. Heroin is not a major problem, but it is available. MDMA, GHB and LSD are the most used club drugs found in Tennessee. They are available in raves and night clubs mainly in Nashville and Knoxville. Prescription drugs are increasing at a fast rate in the state. Most of the addicts are using the doctor shop method, where they go from doctor to doctor getting different prescriptions filled for pain killers, such as: hydromorphone, hydrocodone, meperidine, morphine and amphetamine. They are also getting ephedrine, which is used for the fabrication of methamphetamine. OxyContin®, methadone, morphine, and Xanax® are the most abused prescription drugs within the state. Tennessee ranks fourth with the number of prescriptions given of oxycodone. There were 7000 drug related offenses in Tennessee in 2006 involving crack cocaine alone. 44,399 of these violations were for possession, paraphernalia, using illicit drugs etc. There are 55,000 persons approximately who are using illicit drugs in Tennessee. Crack Cocaine is more popular than the powder form of cocaine in Tennessee. Cocaine comes from various states in the US, and is transported into Tennessee. Many actions are taken by law enforcement to take care of cocaine. This has caused an increase in the price of cocaine in Tennessee. Cocaine, in white powder form, is occasionally mixed and transformed into either freebase cocaine or crack cocaine. Those types of cocaine are of a more toxic nature than the initial cocaine. They are known to be more damaging to the body and the mind of the user. Methamphetamine is still a growing problem in Tennessee, and there are two parts to the problem. The first one is the importation from Mexico that keeps a constant influx of meth in the state. The second is the meth labs that are large in numbers and are practically anywhere in the state. When individuals start taking methamphetamines at a frequency of more than once per week, their body rapidly develops a tolerance for meth. They generally need much bigger quantities of meth to get the same effects they had before. They always need more and more.
