Need Help!!!!! - Addiction & Recovery Message Board

Hi guys -
I need some help - I need to know if anyone has heard of a drug called "Triple C" - I read the name in one of my daughter's messages and I am very concerned - I want to know what I am up against with the new designer drugs. I don't want history to repeat itself, but they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree does it? I am keeping the communication as open as possible - raising a teenager should require a recovery program!!!!

Thank for any input

why don't you ask her?

I would bet that it is a play on the C sound at the end of Ecstacy.

Hi Christine,

I found this and a few other sites stating similar information regarding the street name "Triple C". I hope this helps. Good luck.

Thank you all for your replies - I did indeed find out that triple c is coriciden cough and cold and is being used by teens to catch a buzz - I did ask my daughter about it and it opened a window of communication (in fact I think I overwhelmed her with stuff - she said, "God mom, what did I do - break down some kind of barrier??!" - too funny. I feel that as long as we can talk about things it will all be ok. Thanks again for your help.
