Found This Mysterious Bag in My Dad’s Stuff—Should I Be Worried? Open

So, my dad has been acting a bit off lately—making random jokes about drugs and seeming a little down. I didn’t think much of it until today when I stumbled upon this small bag in his stuff. It looks… suspicious, to say the least. I’m genuinely worried, but I’m no expert in this kind of thing.

Can anyone help me figure out what this is? Is it something harmless, or should I be concerned? I’d really appreciate any insight or advice.

You're right! I edited my initial comment. Also i'm no drug expert, I simply went to google and found several pictures of damn near identical yellow rock like substance.

Why not delete your meth guess or more clearly refute it? Like "Edit: it's not meth" would work. Leaving it up like it is is pretty irresponsible.

Notice how it says "could be" and not "is"? It's written in an hypothetical way, as it may or may not be the stuff, implying doubt or uncertainty, but that's probably beyond your understanding capabilities.

Did you open the link? It's a government endorsed website which show damn near identical substance. So no, I am not going to delete anything, as I did not 100% identify the stuff but merely claimed that it could be. Add to that that here's literally half of the replies bellow that also claim that it could be...

Also, what if we all validate OP into thinking that it isn't but then it turn out that it is meth?..

Not really, it's very basic stuff.

Delete your “google expert” moment comment then?

Are you really that dense? I literally said I am no expert and simply cross referenced pictures. I even provided the sources... Reddit moment!

I simply went to google

was your assumption that OP hadn't already done a google search?

op is looking for someone with experience/an "expert,"

Dude, please, are you new to the internet? People rush to reddit and ask the absolute simplest things all the freaking time. Like people will make a post in r/science to ask at what temperature does water boil... If you've been on this sub and reddit in general for more than 3 minutes you know for a damn fact that people ask literally anything without doing the slightest bit of research. There's literally DOZENS of subs with experts about crystal substances.

i'm well aware, i was curious about in specific: what made you think that you googling with no knowledge of the subject would be helpful?

Good lord, but seriously, are you new to the internet? It isn't 1997 anymore dude. The internet is LOADED with examples to cross references, thousands if not even millions! You legitimately think I went to google, looked at one mayyyyyybe 2 pictures and pulled a conclusion? Honestly I don't know what else to tell you but to search it yourself? You'll be amazed at how many pictures you're able to cross reference.
