Well, regardless, there is only so much you can do to protect people from the regulation side of things. Similar to the saying 'locks are to keep the honest people out' - if someone is determined to get high/intoxicated in some way - they are going to find a way. Some of the ways they will find will do even more harm and some will do less.

I mean, if you are willing to order substances or pills from mystery internet sources and trust you are receiving something safe/receiving what you were told would be sent... well, that is already a level of risk that most people would choose not to take - so, yeah, for those people - definitely don't expect regulation/the threat of legal consequences to get in the way of them rolling the dice on that.

Even if every medicine popular for abuse never, ever existed... people would just huff gasoline/paint or something... or as noted earlier - just drink copious amounts of ultra-healthy alcohol. The best we can do is try to prevent people from feeling they need to abuse/misuse things & educate them on the "safer" ways to achieve whatever it is they are looking to experience.

Point remains, don't play around with benzos kids, it aint worth it. All drugs have potential downsides/unintended harms/consequences - some are worse than others.

The potential harm to benefit ratio when it comes to recreational use (and excess/inappropriate Rx use) of benzos is skewed very heavily towards the 'harm' side of the scale. Instead, consider occasional THC products like your parents all did. Also, consider not doing that either. Be safe everyone.
