Answer 2

There are alot of inhalents just laying around your house I bet that you'd never think of..  Alot of cleaning products are, some even try wd-40, spray paint is the popular one.  Just sit him down and be like I know what your doing and its bad for you.  Just sit there for a few minutes and if he's doing something wrong usaully they will be like no i did not inhale that paint or something like that.

Answer 3

anything in an aerosol can he can huff

Answer 4

Fold your shirt up and spray stuff on it and inhale through your nose.

Inhalants are about the dumbest drugs to do. One of the drugs that will actually make you retarded.

Hope that helps.

Sit your son down a talk to him about it, don't make it seem like a accusation. Tell him of the health risks and talk about consulting help to get rid of his "urges" to inhale substances. The best you can do is try to be understanding and supportive but get him help and throw away any chemicals listed on that website.

Answer 6

pretty much anything in an aerosol can can be used as an inhalant. ie. spray paint, cleaners, spray adhesives etc. Sometimes when people inhale things they get nose bleeds often. Look for a 'bong' type thing, maybe just a bottle that has liquid in the bottom, or a paper bag. (used for spraying into then sniffing the fumes in a concentrated manner.

But all seriousness aside, tell him to smoke weed instead. Marijuana is much safer than inhaling or drinking.
