Hey all. So today's post is all about DRUGS. So, what IS drugs? Why do people waste their money to buy drugs? What are some of the common drugs nowadays? What are the effects of drug taking?
Basically, it is an often illegal and sometimes addictive substance that causes changes in behaviour and perception and is taken for the effects. Some people also use drugs to treat or prevent disease or to lessen pain. Sometimes they take it by the influence of friends.
Here are three of the common drugs and the effects of taking them.
Cocaine, Heroin and Marijuana.
Cocaine is a strong central nervous system stimulant, sometimes used by college students and is highly addictive.
Heroin, while abused far less than marijuana on campus, heroin is a dangerous, is an addictive drug that may have disastrous consequences for users.
Marijuana is the most commonly abused illicit drug in the United States. It is a dry, shredded green and brown mix of flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves derived from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa. The main active chemical in marijuana is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol; THC for short. The effects are problems with memory and learning, loss of coordination, trouble with thinking and problem-solving, increased heart rate, reduced blood pressure.
I think people should not tale drugs as it is highly addictive and is a waste of money. You can use the money to buy important things like writng materials, books ect. instead of buying useless, expensive pills.
