Drugs can change your life, and not for the better. You can be seriously injured in an accident involving drugs, you can lose your friends, lose trust in your family, and not only that, drugs are BAD for you, unfortunately, some can even kill you...

So why to teenagers do drugs? Many reasons, some do it for the adrenaline rush, just wanting to get into trouble and be the 'bad' kid in school. For some it starts at home, their parents do drugs, maybe their friends or significant other do drugs, that can cause peer pressure, and teens can give in easily to that. There could be problems with parents getting divorces or family members dying, which causes stress and depression. Since teens aren't experienced they result by turning to drugs, since most do not know how to handle their problems. But no matter how severe the problem(s), drugs (or alcohol, tobacco) are no excuse.

Trying drugs is a huge and sometimes fatal mistake. They can make huge changes in your life, and it could get very out of control. Drama could be caused, you could change your attitude, and you could even lose your close friends. Your parents could catch you, causing them to lose all trust in you, and you could be punished and could not gain privileges for a long while.

Drugs are also extremely bad for you, you could overdose on certain, get lung cancer from smoking those illegal substances, and remember, your under the influence, meaning you could be involved in a car accident or anything of the sort. They can change your future, you could lose your job, money, grades, college would be hard to get into. And much more could happen experimenting with drugs than you could ever expect, so expect the unexpected if you are going to risk the chances you take trying drugs.

You can become addicted and waste away all your money, until you have no life, your life is drugs, most likely you will regret these mistakes you make in even just the start in your life. So please listen to people and fight the urge. Resist to peer pressure, because no matter what, you don't want to lose anything to drugs, so just say no. And yes, I do know its a personal decision, I just shared my opinions, so I hope if your reading this because your curious and wondering, you will feel the same way. If you have problems with drugs, or anything of the kind, get some help, for the better (counseling, friends, therapy, etc..).
