Eww!!

Today, there was a talk on drug addiction and the effects. Seriously, the pictures showing the dead people and people who were so skinny, like they never ever eaten in their lifetime, horrified me. Drugs are horrible stuff if abused. Why do people abuse drugs? Well, there can be many factors but the most common ones are influence from friends, the desire to try something new and to relief stress. But why do people look towards drugs as a way to relief stress? As you can see, some drugs have chemicals that can stimulate the body to produce hormones that give pleasure. And it is this "pleasure" that actually lifts up the mood. 

Anyway, what I want to say is, don't ever abuse drugs. It's bad for health. Now, don't get too afraid of drugs. Drugs can be helpful too, under the supervision of a specialist, like a doctor or a physician for example. As long as you listen to your doctor, you should be fine. 

But, but, like any other drugs, medicine still can cause problems if abused. And one more thing, even though you buy a medicine that has the word "Natural" printed on its label, you should still be cautious. Normally, manufacturers use nice names to entice the consumers to buy their products. Most of the time, a "Natural medicine" or "medicine made from natural sources like ... herbs and ..." doesn't mean it has no drugs. Remember that! It's still a medicine, and since it is a medicine, it is not good to abuse it.

Drugs, once you regret it, it may already be too late.
