drugs


Drugs is a very big problem in the world many deaths are caused by taking drugs, over dosing and suicide. In this essay i will highlight the arguments for and against drugs and state my own opinion.
Drugs are a very big problem in the world. Everywhere you look people are affected by them but even though they are common it doesn't make them harmless.A drug is a chemical which is taken into your body if you are in pain or have an illness which is legal, but other drugs such as heroin and ecstasy are illegal drugs which are used to make you feel good and give you a buss.
 
It is estimated that each year in the UK around 114,000 people die from taking tobacco.
In 1998-2004 137people died of cocaine, 93 died of Ecstasy and 1348 died from taking Opiates.
Some people think it is okay for other people to do drugs, but they wont think that when one of their family or friends are asked to have drugs or gets spiked then they would strongly disagree and change their opinion.
                     Drug abuse causes multiple problems for countries and communities.The medical and psychological effects are very obvious.Children need to be told at home and in school about drugs. People need to be aware of the effects so that they can make avoid this problem.Huge police resources are needed to fight smuggling and dealing. Criminal gangs and mafia underworlds develop with the money from drugs
