Drug+Awareness

You walk into a party, seeing people you know, others you don't. Some are dancing, others talking, but all of them seem to but taking pills every now and then. Wanting to follow the crowd, you pop two. You suddenly feel a surge of energy, and happiness, and are suddenly stimulated by an invisible force. In less than a minute however, you seem to feel lower than the ground. You then find yourself asking for more, taking ten pills at once. You just took some ecstasy tablets. Ecstasy is a stimulant drug and just one of the many types of drugs out there. Your body will constantly ask for more until you overdose, thus killing yourself. Ecstasy is only one of the different types of drugs, and also one of the most common. There is also marijuana, cocaine, crystal meth, heroin, LSD, and countless others. Almost all of them are illegal, and can be severely addictive. Drugs can be ingested, injected, snorted, smoked or inhaled. As I said earlier, most drugs are addictive and can make a person chemically dependent to the drug. A person will continue to search for the incredible feeling, even though they never will find it. Side effects could be infertility, memory loss, paranoia, hair loss, and thousands of other unpleasant effects, and above all, death.





When it comes down to me being a subject to drugs, I find this totally possible. Drugs are quickly coming our way, and some of us are stupid enough to try them. Drug dealers find young adolescents easy new users to the big world. I have had many near occasions with alcohol and drugs and I do believe that we have to be very careful now. I think that it's best to stay as far away as you can from these friends. If they are drug users, they probably aren't your friends, especially if they try to put you on drugs. So to stay away from drugs, and to report to an adult when you know anyone is on drugs. Whether it's a teacher, a policeman, or your parent, tell an adult. You might have heard your friends say: "Don't tattle on me" or "tell and your dead." For starters, its not tattling if it's the truth. Nothings going to happen if you tell the truth. Your going to help them if you tell an adult anyways. Drugs are bad, and I hope never to be subject to drug abuse.
