Glee Pseudoephedrine

I was watching Wednesday night's episode of Glee thinking, "Wow! Look how well they perform when they take that drug! It can't possibly be dangerous if you only take it before performances...." Luckily, I'm pretty educated about the consequences of taking over-the-counter drugs, but if even I was seriously considering it after watching that episode, I wonder whether some less wise teenagers will actually try it.

This summer, I went to a choir camp up in Idyllwild, CA and I got a really bad cough. My parents brought me Thermaflu when they came up for one of our concerts and that has pseudoephedrine. That shit fucked me up. Just ask my roommates. When I took it I started getting really crazy once it got into my system and then eventually I would black out for 5-10 minutes and be even crazier until I suddenly passed out. I really think Glee was stupid not to put some consequences in other than having the stupid cheer coach be assigned to co-direct Glee.

Just my humble opinion....
