People impacted by Red Frogs each year
"I attended a music festival last weekend and it was the most horrific night of my life. If Red Frogs and paramedics weren’t there I wouldn’t be here either today. I stupidly chose to take an MDMA pill for the first time thinking "I’ll be fine what’s the worst that could happen"? 30 minutes later my eyes rolled into the back of my head and I started hallucinating. I couldn’t see because my vision was so blurry so I went straight to the Red Frogs tent. I spent over 7 hours there, vomiting and panicking just thinking I was going to die. Throughout the night I was fed food and water but when I got up I had a seizure. The paramedics took care of me then but if neither of you guys were there I wouldn’t be alive today."
