Like any inhalant the long term side effects can include sudden death, brain damage, suffocation (especially if poured into a bag and sniffed from bag), loss of muscle control, slurred speech, liver and kidney damage... that's just to name a few straight out of the street drug guide i use.

Other inhalants you may not have considered (the sharpies were'nt specifially listed): airplane glue, rubber cement, nail polish remover, spray paint, whipped cream cans, hair spray, gas, paint thinner, wax remover, aerosol deodorants, air freshners, spot remover, degreaser, lighter fluid, butane ect...

www.streetdrugs.org if you want to order a copy for yourself. Their street drugs id book is phenominal.
