Drugs.com describes the effects of PCP in this way,
"A moderate amount of PCP often causes users to feel detached, distant, and estranged from their surroundings. Numbness of the extremities, slurred speech, and loss of coordination may be accompanied by a sense of strength and invulnerability. A blank stare, rapid and involuntary eye movements, and an exaggerated gait are among the more observable effects. Auditory hallucinations, image distortion, severe mood disorders, and amnesia may also occur. In some users, PCP may cause acute anxiety and a feeling of impending doom; in others, paranoia and violent hostility, and in some, it may produce a psychoses indistinguishable from schizophrenia."

Although also harmful, this is not the correct Angel Dust.

Lotus House Ladies
I was trying to talk to the LH women about avoiding UTIs and doing their kegels and we ended up touching on miscarriage and so many of the ladies had stories to share. I'm sure you all talk about the subject in process groups and what not but I wanted to pass on that it's something that a couple of the women voiced that they have never actually talked about until this go round here at CMHS. It was a hard topic that I didn't have the time or skill to really work with appropriately.
National Eating Disorder Awareness Week update
Also in the world of body positivity and inclusiveness a great thing happened this week. Check out the new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. Ashley Graham, a size 16 curve model is totally slaying in a tiny purple bikini. It's a pretty huge step in helping women in the US to love their body at any size and what a great time for it to happen.
