So, you like drugs?

Drugs

We've all heard the stories of taking cannabis, sitting in the corner of room with a bunch of your mates at the end of a party, laughing and giggling, feeling so relaxed and having so much fun. Maybe you see somebody with some coke or maybe some heroin. Maybe you're having such a good time and feel so relaxed you decide to try some. Maybe you start feeling very happy and feel like you could kill anyone. So you start fighting. Then you end up in hospital with broken ribs and a smashed up face covered in blood. You probably can't breath very well, have a headache from the drugs. Then you find out that nobody touched your face, but your nose started bleeding from snorting too much coke. Sounds harsh doesn't it, but, hey, it could be worse, you could be dead.

That would be the worst thing that could happen, but say you didn't take the coke or the heroin. You just simply smoked the hash. That's not so bad is it? Hash is seven times more likely to give you cancer than cigarettes, and one in three smokers get cancer. So if you smoke often, you've got a pretty good chance of getting cancer. Sounds nice - a slow painful way to die. But say you are lucky enough not to get cancer, you're still gonna be coughing your guts out most of the rest of the next day because the tar (the same stuff as you get on the roads) is now covering the inside of your lungs.

Have you ever seen people that smoke too much hash? Have you ever spoken to them? Don't some of them sound a little bit dumb? Do you want to sound like that? It kills your brain. You know, that important thing inside your head that controls what you do. If you are seriously brain damaged, you won't be able to speak to your mates, properly, eat without help, even pee without help… Are you still confident about pulling?

What about speed or E? Sound great, don't they? They make you feel more confident, wake you up so you can dance all night, make you heart beat faster… And the next morning, you feel the opposite. Slow, paranoid and depressed. That's assuming you didn't overdose or have an allergic reaction, and you are still alive. Did you know some people cut the stuff with bleach? So it could be like downing bleach. You may not be awake the next morning, but lying in a box in a morgue. Like the Playstation – "Don't underestimate the power of drugs."
