As a teenager myself many people think that smoking cigarettes, weed , and a new drug called sour are fun and a way get away from the stress we get from life. Drugs are not a healthy thing so i don't see why people take them. I've grown up in a neighborhood were people smoke and drink they never really care about who's around them. I mean just because you don't care about what happens to you does that mean you shouldn't care about the kids around you there's still something called second-hand smoke. I've had people in my family who smoke i see them forgetting important things being sick and always coughing, i saw a family member who had to be rushed to the hospital because of what she was doing to her lungs at the age of five. I've lived in an enviornment since the age of four being exposed breathing in the smoke and to my surprise i actually like the smell of drugs. I am determined not to allow myself to be dragged into drugs several people influence me to take drugs because they think it takes the stress from the world away. It may seem like that while your happy or high as they call it but nothing can ever take away the stress you feel in life in my own opinion.
Teens who take drugs or started taking drugs because of the wonderful effects people tell them it has which make people want to try it even more but there are horrible effects from taking drugs also. Certain teens take drugs because of social peer pressure. People who have problems with their parents, listen to their friends who urge them to take drugs and start taking drugs along with their friends. Depending on where a child lives will effect whether or not they decide to take drugs or not. Teens who become more heavuly involved with marijuana can become dependent , and that is their prime reason for using drigs. Others mention psychological copying as a reason for their use to deal with aniexty, anger, depression boredom ans so forth. Some people believe that taking drugs gets rid of the world's everyday problems. There are many things peoople can do to quit taking drugs but they are never willing to give it a try. Experts say "that drugs cause sucide i stead of preventing them and depending on the drugs your taking it may begin to make you have panic attacks".
