I was in the Leadmill last night and I helped a lass. She was unconcious outside the blokes toilets (at a guess probably OD'd?). I helped her untill the bouncers took her outside hopefully for the ambulance. I just want to know how she is, I've not seen anything on the new so i take it she is alive.



Anybody shed light?

(at a guess probably OD'd?)

Please don't guess - there have been numerous threads regarding spiking of drinks in the pubs and clubs of Sheffield. She may have been unfortunate enough to become a victim of this vile practice, on the other hand she may have been fortunate enough to end up in an ambulance rather the back of a car

Have a search through the forum for the word spiked and I'm sure you'll find some threads

Im not bothered about the reason for her being in that state.

All I want to know is that she is ok, I helped her and now I can't get it out of my head as to wether she is ok or not.!!

Sorry can't help you, nice that you care though. : )

Sorry didn't mean to offend but if I were going to assume anything I would have assumed drunk. OD'd would not have been my first thought. I guess that's the difference between people, I'm 40+ and haven't been to the leadmill for about 10 years

Life would be so dull if we were all the same :thumbsup:

OMG That's just awful with what happened to me, in the Leadmill over the weekend a knowing overdose would NOT be my first assumption!!

Was anyone with her when she was taken outside by the bouncers? I hope so!! The bouncers down there aren't exactly known for their tact and sympathy!

Again I will reiterate the point - DO NOT leave your drink unattended at any time!!!! Maybe this case was a knowing overdose - but still heed the warning!

Yes I think there were a few girls with her. Some people are useless these days, while she was layed out people were just watching, noone actually bothered to do something. As soon as I saw it as I was coming out of the toilets I delt with the situation.

Which is an overdose (even though it is alcohol).

ur not who i think you are, are u? lol my m8s mark b lol from arbourthorne?

Are you after an award or something?

Good on you for helping her hope she is ok.

Are you after an award or something?

No im not after an award or what ever smart arse. I purley want to know if she is ok/alive!

my ex works at leadmill hes a supervisor there i could ask him for info on the girl.

Are you after an award or something?
that nasty that at least he cared enough to help her and now wants to know if she ok like anyone would good on you mark:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Probably wont know anything. All the bouncers did is kick her out!

:thumbsup: Well done MarkB, people like you should be praised. My mate had her drink spiked on West Street and luckily we were in a large group, most of us not drinking so got an ambulance pretty quickly. Its scary stuff for those involved and I think you deserve a pat on the back.

I too agree with you:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

...cheers...

My mate had her drink spiked on West Street

And your evidence of this is what?

It's a bit more embarassing to say "my friend got so drunk/off their face we had to phone an ambulance" but much more likely to be true...

Why is it???

Normally people can tell the difference when they get spiked..I have been spiked before after having not much to drink..its a different feeling and you can tell you have been if you havnt had much drink...

My sister has also been spiked..we could tell she had. Her eyes were rolling up to the top of her head..she couldnt walk or even ardley speak..and she didnt really drink much at the time...

I agree, my brother got his drink spiked a few years back while we was in skeg vegas around easter time. We knew he had been spiked coz he had the same syptoms as above, the person that did it did it because he was after my brothers girlfriend at the time :rant: All i can say it that he was visiting A&E a few hours later x

:o Thats awful

I've also seen someone who's been spiked and the poor lass had no idea what was going on around her. She's not a huge drinker and I'd never seen her like that. Her eyes were rolling around all over and she was completely out of control. It's lucky that I picked her up in town or god knows what might've happened. The following morning shehad no recollection at all of what exactly happened but it was definately not just drink that put her in that state.

People who spike drinks need a good kicking.

:o Thats awful

Yep i know. He obviously thought he could get away with it but he was wrong and suffered for it afterwards x

I'm glad he did!! :mad:

I didnt know who had done it to me. It was at the Leadmill and I left my drink on a little ledge while I was dancing with a friend. I know now it was silly of me to leave my drink but I never thought anything like that would happen. I will never leave my drink again.

Erm...she had her drink spiked, simple as that:rolleyes: I think the best judge of that situation would be me, at the time heavily pregnant & out with friends before going for a meal. One drink in a pub where my friend was 'chatted-up' by a group of lads whilst getting her drink at the bar despite the fact that we were all in couples. We went straight from there to the restaurant where she collapsed. The paramedic suspected she'd been spiked, she had only one drink as that was our first stop.

Is that okay or would you like her hospital notes?

My brother went to the bar and bought 5 drinks, he could only carry four so he left the other one on the bar and thats when he spiked him, obviously he didn't know so he came back to the table and started drinking it, thats when things started to happen. Not one of us now leaves our drinks unattended, we always go in 2's to the bar so if anybody cant carry any then the other person always brings it :thumbsup:

Please people - Do not leave your drinks unattended, there are some slimy people around and they will try anything at every opportunity x

No, that's ok - did the hospital think she'd been spiked? Did the police become involved? Were CCTV tapes taken from the venue where the "spiking" took place?

The paramedic suspected she'd been spiked

From experience this tends to mean "I told the paramedic over and over that she'd had her drink spiked and he nodded politely"

As I've said elsewhere, the statistical chances of having your drink spiked randomly are tiny - what is the benefit to the spiker of randomly adulterating peoples drinks?

This is completely untrue, there was a spate of drink spiking in my local club a couple of years ago, where there were at least 10 suspected cases in a week (and those were just the ones I was aware of through people I knew), with many more probably being put down to drink and being unnoticed. Everyone knew it was going on, even the bouncers started asking friends of girls collapsed in the toilet if they'd left their drink unattended as opposed to if they'd taken anything or how much they'd had to drink.

From that experience, the police tend not to be that bothered. I couldn't prove I'd had my drink spiked because it was 12 hours before I went to hospital and the drugs used to spike drinks are rapidly eliminated from the body and don't show up in tests. They did begin to investigate after so many cases turned up, and it resulted in a large local anti-spiking campaign. Another pub had several cases so started putting free anti-spiking toppers in all bottled drinks.

The benefit to the spiker? Not all spikers are after victims to rape. The main reason people spike drinks is for 'voyeuristic' activity. They enjoy watching the state the victims fall into.

Are you after an award or something?

No he isn't but he bloody deserves one.

Arseholes like you get sod all.

Good on you mark, I guess some blades are good guys :thumbsup: ;)

I hardly come on this forum anymore and this thread is one of the reasons why.

Mark came on asking if anyone knew any information on if this girl was ok, and at least 3 of you start having a go at him for asking and arguing with him for it. Shame on you, where have all the nice people gone?? :loopy:

indeed, odd that most alledged spikings are either after a lot of drinking or after a couple of drinks in someone who 'doesn't drink'...

in 4 years of A+E experience i've seen 3 or 4 genuine spikings, most ofthe rest have been embarassed mates or angry parents puttign spiking up as a reason why their mate / offspring has drunk themselves into the state they are in

alcohol is a depressant , it is virtually impossible to tell the difference between too much alcolhol and some alcohol and a benzo ...

the police are rarely interested in these random spikings as there is no chance of getting evidence, if , the spiking actually did happen and it's not just down to too much drink or some other underlying (often sub clinical ) health problem such as a viral infection...

another factor is the issue of the detectability or otherwise of the drugs used, especially as you are unlikely to get people freely admitting their use of other illicit drugs ...

I saw the girl in leadmill to. My friend saw her who is a nurse in practasing and got her to drink somewater and sit down as she was falling allover. we spoke to the girls friends and they told us that she was epaleptic and that she gets worse in really hot weather. Hence it being extremly hot in leadmill on thursday night. The girl was made to leave with her friends by the bouncers and they was not very polite about it as they thought shed had to much to drink. So i was very angry as they have no consideration and i told them not to tar everyone with the same brush. I also rang up leadmill on friday morning to complain about how there staff treat people who genuinly are ill. Not everyoe who goes out is drunk or is on drugs. about time them bouncers learnt about respect. Well anyway the girl got in ambulance ao im sure she will be ok.

please dont guess too

its good someone out there helped her... good one :)

I think you are well out of order here mate, why does itmatter what the hospital in this case thought, a bit too personal there I think, and from someone who's been in this situation you wouldn't make it up, I do drink, and on this night I'd had 3, I can tell you all what they were, and then I remember nothing unitl the next morning, scary as hell, why would oyu make that up!!! and even if they do, why would it matter to you, or is your job just to prove everyone else in the world wrong.

A friend of mine got spiked and yes im sure it was spiked because she usually drinks alot and can handle her drink. We went out she had one drink (which got brought for her) and then she couldnt stand. The day after she couldnt remember anything. Now im sorry but she got spiked and honestly it was the scariest moment in her and my life. We're all always extra careful now.

I dont understand the spiking culture, or more specifically, people who randomly spike drinks. What exactly is their goal? I am seriously not being naive here, but spiking the drink of someone in a big group to the point where they collapse inside a few minutes is just utterly pointless.

I could understand (though clearly not agree with) people who spike the drink of someone they may be 'chatting up'. But dropping drugs in a random glass - why bother?

I think all the poster was getting at is there is often a tendancy when someone becomes very drunk or passes out to simply say "my drink must have been spiked" Its like the old joke of a bloke throwing up after 15 pints and then blaming the portion of chips he had; in short, its human nature to blame everything but the obvious. I very much doubt they were casting ascertions directly over you and or your friends.

On a sidenote, its interesting that a lot of the "spike threads" seem to concentrate on the Leadmill. Maybe it has something to do with the quality of alcohol being served. At £1 for a double, questions have to be asked. I remember being HORRIFICALLY ill in there once after drinking a double vodka and red devil. And I was sober prior to that.


I guess you never can tell When Mr Sick will visit his next victim.

I had a drink spiked at a Dr's Mess party of all places 13 years ago now.

Spent 12 hours in A/E on oxygen with shallow depressed respirations.

Private party full of ''Professionals'' :roll:

You can trust no one.

If ever I find out who did it....
