DrugQuestion - Question 1: Why do people use drugs?

Why do people take drugs?
That's a question that many people make. Most of people don't know the answer to that question! But the answer is very simple: they need a escape or they want to fit in. But it all happens because of a problem. It can be any kind of problem that effects their minds. They need to change the way they feel and they think that drugs can solve their problems. Even knowing they are bad, if they are in a down moment, they fall. Drug sellers can use any kind of arguments to make money, so they can tell that it can solve your problems, that they will take you to another place where pain doesn't exist. But it's all a lie!
Those are the reasons why people, especially teens, start using and abusing drugs:
  • To fit in
  • To escape or relax
  • To relieve boredom
  • To seem grown up
  • To rebel
  • To experiment
They believe drugs are the solution but they become the real problem in their lives.

May God bless you!

This fight changed my way of acting in the future!


I was waiting for PE classes to start, and a fight between a girl and a boy started. The girl is very strong, she has everyone by her side and she started hiting and punching the boy. The others held him so he couldn't defend himself. He was being a victim of bullying, you know? If I saw the sceene at time, but when I saw she was alredy running away. I would have stopped it in time. The boy was sitting, crying, in a corner with a girl who I believe that has ataxia (she is bullied sometimes too because of it). He wasn't fine, he had marks of the punches. I wanted to talk to him, but I wasn't brave enough to do it while my classmates were watching. Then I was the WEAK one! I was afraid of bullying too! I let myself down not helping that poor kid, but I won't give up! When we left PE classes to french classes, that boy's class was outside with their teacher. They were all laughig sitting in the benches, but that kid was sitting next to the teacher, on the bench he was, afraid of what others could do to him. He wasn't laughing as his "mates", actually he was almost crying. I stopped and stared when I walked by them, but I couldn't stay there seeing the sceene. But I swear that this kid will have my help! I won't let him have the same end as many victims had, or suffer was I alredy did!
May God bless you and bless that boy!
