St. Louis County Police and drug treatment professionals were in Maryland Heights to talk about heroin's dangers Thursday night.
St. Louis County Police Chief Tim Fitch once talked with a young woman arrested for buying heroin. She was from Ballwin, and told Finch she got hooked because she was battling depression. The first time she tried it, according to Fitch, she got a high that she hasn’t been able to achieve since. According to a heroin addiction website, one of the drug's most insidious qualities is that is sends the addict on a quest to repeat that first high, usually a fruitless journey. Heroin addiction isn’t a light switch you can turn off and on, Fitch told a crowded audience at Pattonville High School Thursday night. Fitch was part of a public forum about heroin use among teens. The forum featured St. Louis County Police, the National Council on …

"Patch" speaks with school, law and medical professionals about students and drugs.
The St. Louis County Police will hold a forum about a rise in heroin and prescription pain killer use among teens on Thursday, June 23 at 7 p.m. The forum will be held at Pattonville High School, according to a press release.

Narcotics Anonymous groups in the St. Louis area have several helplines available for drug users seeking help. D.A.R.E. photographs in video are courtesy of Pattonville School District.
Lazy Cakes, "The Relaxation Brownie," hit West County gas stations. Its manufacturer says it contains melatonin to relax the consumer, but people that "Patch" spoke with say that news isn't relaxing at all.
They may look like a regular brownie, but Lazy Cakes, the "relaxation brownies," are not made with grandma's usual recipe. In fact some say the packaging is designed to resemble a "pot brownie." Patch visited a number of local gas stations and convenience stores and found the treat at Manchester gas stations, but did not locate it in Town and Country. We also found some gas stations have recently pulled the item from shelves. According to the ingredients listed on the packaging, Lazy Cakes contain eight milligrams of melatonin, a hormone usually marketed as a sleeping aid. The brownies cost $2.99 each and gas stations, and convenience stores in the nation have been selling this product for a few months now. In fact, according to a May …
