The following lists are intended as a quick

reference: an alphabetically ordered guide for

“translating” street names of commonly encountered

psychoactives into their more standard versions

(for example, cannabis, cocaine, LSD, and so forth).

In this first edition of the Manual, we present names

in six languages: Dutch, English, French, German,

Portuguese, and Spanish. Where possible, we have

tried to preserve region-specific information (for

example, usage of a term in Australian- versus

American-English, or European- versus

Mexican-Spanish). Botanical names are given, as per standard

practice, in italics (for example, Salvia divinorum);

however, more commonly used terms are written

normally (for example, cannabis, psilocybin-

containing mushrooms, and so forth).

These lists must be considered a work in progress;

indeed, the very knowledge they are attempting to

capture is constantly changing due to the nature

of day-to-day spoken language. We welcome any

additions or feedback, which can be provided to us

at

http://www.psychsitter.com

The “Fly Agaric” (Amanita muscaria) contains the psychoactive chemicals ibotenic acid and muscimol. Due to their sometimes-less-than-pleasant effects, other mushrooms—those that contain the psychedelics psilocybin and psilocin—are much more popular among festival attendees. Photo by Jon Hanna, 2009.

MDMA may be sold pressed into pills (as shown here from the 2010 Boom Festival), or it may be available as crystalline chunks or powder. Photo by Erowid.

Commonly described by dealers at the 2008 Boom Festival as being “mescaline”, these very tiny stars were actually LSD microdots. Photo by Erowid.

“Angel’s Trumpet”, “Brug”, “Datura”, “Jimsonweed”, and “Moonflower”, are all names given to plants from the

Brugmansia and Datura genera,

which contain somewhat dangerous deliriant/hallucinogenic tropane alkaloids that often produce bad trips when taken recreationally. Photo from the 2006 Mind States Costa Rica conference by Jon Hanna.

“San Pedro” (or Echinopsis pachanoi [= Trichocereus pachanoi]) cacti is a visionary sacrament used by some indigenous and mestizo shamans within South America; it contains mescaline, similar to peyote (Lophophora williamsii) used by the Native American Church in the United States and the Huichol Indians in Mexico. Due to the nausea and vomiting associated with mescaline, San Pedro is not as popular on the festival circuit as other psychedelics or empathogens, such as LSD, mushrooms, or MDMA.

This crystalline MDMA was being sold at the 2010 Boom Festival under the street name “Sass”, a slang term that has also been used for MDA and other chemically similar

empa-thogens. Some dealers/users claim that “Sass” is a “more natural” (or less refined) ver-sion of MDMA or MDA, due to their belief that a precursor chemical that can be used in the production of these drugs, safrole, was created out of sassafras oil obtained from the root of a tree in the

Sassafras genus.

Known as “Laughing Gas”, “Hippie Crack”, “Whip-its” (a brand), “Nang”, “Nos”, “Bulbs” (for the small metal cartridges that it comes in when sold as a propellant for making whipped cream), or “Ballon” (in Dutch, for the balloons from which it is commonly inhaled), nitrous oxide is often a popular psychoactive at festivals. Photo of various brands of spent nitrous cartridges by Jon Hanna, 2014. “Changa” smoking mixtures

containing DMT and harmala alkaloids—such as this sample photographed at the 2010 Boom Festival—have become increasingly popular in recent years. Photo by Erowid.

Depicted to the left are 30 mg scored generic Adderall pills, a prescription stimulant made from a mixture of four racemic salts: amphetamine aspar-tate, amphetamine sulphate, dextro- amphetamine saccharate, and dextroamphetamine sulphate.

Photo by Jon Hanna, 2014.

Available as a prescription called Desoxyn (and formerly sold using the brand name Methedrine), methamphetamine hydrochloride is a popular stimulant on the illicit market; users may consume it orally, snorted, smoked, or injected. On the street it is known as “Crank”, “Crystal”, “Glass”, “Ice”, “Meta”, “Meth”, “Shabs”, “Shabu”, “Shards”, “Speed”, “Tweak”/“Tweek”, “Whizz”, “Yaba”, “Yama”, and various other names.

Alcohol remains one of the most popular psychoactives at many festivals, as this wall of beer available at the 2008 Boom Festival attests to. Photo by Erowid.

The Erythroxylum coca plant is celebrated in Bolivia, where it is commonly chewed, brewed as tea (shown here), and incorporated into various foods, including candies and an energy drink launched in 2010 called Coca Colla. Such uses do not seem to be as problematic as the pure alkaloid cocaine can sometimes be. Photo by Jon Hanna, 2014.

In recent years, several powerful psychedelics, such as bromo-dragonfly (shown left), DOI (shown right), and some NBOMe compounds (not depicted), have begun to appear on blotter. These drugs have a different risk profile associated with each of them, as compared to LSD, and unfortunately they are some-times misrepresented or mistaken for LSD.
