What are "Blues"?

Hi,
I believe my sister is addicted to blues, she used to be addicted to xanex after a nasty marrige now she is with a new guy who i believe is giving her these blues i dont know what they are, i confronted her about doing something and she denied it saying she would never lie to me and one night i heard her and her bf fighting and they mentioned blues. she has been very isolated from me her family and her friends, shes always with him sometimes acts weird and is losing weight again, she lost weight when she was on xanex. Can someone help and tell me what these are? What should I do? I have proof i saw texts on her phone about getting blues. Thanks Everyone in advance!

I've heard blues referred as both xanax and roxies. I think it just all depends on the specific area. Addiction is addiction no matter what the substance and you know she is buying and using some sort of pill. This being said, feel safe if you do decide to intervene. From seeing the text on her phone you know she is using. Hopefully you can get through to her!
Best of luck!

most people call roxi blues some people also call xannax blues to so it could be either one. They are both dangerous and I would try and talk to her as a sis. See what is going on cause I would say that she is headed for trouble....

Hi,
where I am from, blues are 10 mg valium, which is a diazepam, anti-anxiety, so it is similar to xanax. I'm sure there are a lot of blues out there, but I know the 10 mg generic (and possibly brand name, but most pharmacies and street dealers would deal in generic, less expensive so bigger margins). Could be valium which I hear is very hard to get off of, although I was prescribed a type of diazepam for muscle spasms that were a side- effect of effexor an antidepressant, that I went off of because of the terrible body jolts. God, some of these pills, you got to wonder what the hell they do to your body!!! Good luck, I wish you well. Hope you find out. Best to get a pill and check the markings as all controlled substances should be scored and have numbers or a word on them to be identified easily. You can check them out on various websites that show pictures of the pills so you know what they are.

Hey Everyone, i know its been awhile since i wrote, but i have confronted my sister and her scumbag of a boyfriend, they have been recently selling pills out of my house! she says shes not doing them but i honestly do not know what to believe anymore, she lost lots of weight, has no money and looks like shes aged, but she swears she loves this guy who by the way is NOT working and just living off of me n her, my parents have confronted her and she denies it saying shes finally happy and sick of people being nosey, all she does is stay in the house with him and smoke constant cigarettes. I do not know what to do anymore...

The dude and your sis have made your house into a dope house. You can lose everything.  I'd set both of them free ASAP if it were my house.
