Question: Are sniffing whiteout and magic markers illegal?
Answer: Inhaling toxic vapors is commonly referred to as 'Huffing' and it is against the law in Arizona.
It is against the law to knowingly breathe, inhale, or drink a vapor-releasing toxic substance. Common things that fit this definition are glue, spray paint, gasoline, etc.
There are also regulations regarding the sale of inhalants. Using or selling these substances is regarded as a class 5 felony or a class 1 misdemeanor depending on the seriousness of the offense. (ARS 13-3403).

I would like to tell my story of a downward spiral of self-destruction in hopes of saving just one person from travelling the path I have taken. It was Monday Night Football Night at my fraternity house my senior year and the keg had just ran dry. It was only the 2nd quarter. Instead of making a freshman go on a beer run, Vinny suggested that we each get a glass of gas and "huff" it. He showed us how and by halftime we were all goofy. We were all having the best buzz of our lives-(and thats saying something coming from my frat house.)
Flash forward 4 years and I was/am still addicted to hu
