I'm not sure of the exact risk, but you could definitley die from inhaling fumes. It could be something as non-threatening as a hair product or nail polish or remover, but that doesn't mean it's any less dangerous! HUFFING CAN KILL THE VERY FIRST TIME YOU EXPERIMENT WITH IT.
Sounds harsh? Well, it is. But it's true. If things end up ok and you feel fine, keep this in mind the next time you think it's a good idea to try it again:
"When huffing doesn't kill quickly, it damages the body each time--especially the brain. Huffing can cause memory loss, impaired concentration, hearing loss, loss of coordination, and permanent brain damage. Chronic use can cause permanent heart, lung, liver, and kidney damage as well. Solvents (found in glues, paints, and polishes), fuels (such as butane), nitrites (found in deodorizers), and almost any kind of aerosol spray can be responsible."
Depending on what was in the product, when you inhaled it, it could have filled your lungs and kept the good air, with oxygen, out. That's why you feel dizzy and buzzed. It decreases the oxygen to your brain AND to your heart. ITS NOT AN OVERDOSE. You can die while breathing it in.
If you're fine, thank you're lucky stars and keep that in mind. And when you're in a better state of mind, read these and think over your decisions more carefully:
