write an article on ' suprious life drugs - A death trap'
Answers
Answer:
In the past, drugs reminded us of terrorists, gangsters and criminals. Today it is heart-wrenching to see how it has made its way into the lives of youth.
I heard it for the first time in 2017 when many school students involved in drug abuse in Hyderabad. More than 20 school names were revealed that day. Since then, tales of youth involved in drugs are heard everywhere. Recently I came across a news saying that drug abuse was increased by 30% in India in the last decade.
I always thought youth have improved over a period of time with exposure to internet and social media. This news made me rethink about it. Less privileged get into drugs due to mental trauma and family issues. Now-a-days, well raised and educated youngsters have also become victims of drug abuse. I wanted to find out the reason. I looked it up on the internet and here is what I found:
1. Stress
2. Low self-esteem
3. Depression
4. Boredom
5. Peer pressure
6. Curiosity
7. Money issues
8. Poor home environment
Some of these issues can definitely be treated without taking drugs. Unfortunately, youth are still opting for it. This speaks a lot about less awareness, improper guidance and communication gap in our society. Youth should be well educated about these in schools. We should make them understand the consequences of drug abuse by giving them real life examples like how drugs caused death of 54 people in Mizoram in 2019. Every youngster should know that drugs can only worsen their situation over a period of time. Here are some ill-effects caused by the drug abuse -
1. A weakened immune system.
2. Risk of significant liver damage or liver failure.
3. Heart conditions ranging from abnormal heart rates to heart attacks and collapsed veins.
4. Lung disease.
5. Problems with memory, attention and decision making, which make daily living more difficult.
