In the video that went viral, TikToker talks about all the red flags she "should have noticed" when she got drugged in a bar. On February 1, 2023, Higgs went to a Niagara area bar, where Wednesdays are typically theme nights that she and her friends have enjoyed many times before.
"First off y'all are definitely going to think I'm super dumb because it's so obvious but I left the drinks alone with the guys," she shared in the video.
The guys would take the bottle with them to the bathroom, and when they returned, they would only give the girls shots without drinking from them. Also, they were following them around the bar, even though she was seeing other people. She also said that their stories didn't add up. They were all sharing different things about where they lived, for example.
Higgs told his story in social network to raise awareness and share your mistakes with others “to avoid the same result”.
“As terrifying as this experience was, I was lucky because I got out safely and am physically and mentally well enough to share my experience and continue with my life,” she said.
TikToker was afraid to post the video, but afterwards, it received a flood of positive messages that filled the comments section, and that's when it felt "heard and understood". She still left a lesson: never accept drinks from unknown people, even if they are served as a courtesy gesture. Also, don't leave your drink unattended in unfamiliar surroundings, and don't accept drinks you didn't see being prepared.
