Drugs –
What they Are and What they Do ?

A drug, is any
substance that, when
absorbed into the body
of a living organism,
alters normal bodily
function. Drugs are
chemicals that change
the way a person's body
works by altering
emotions and thoughts.
Drug abuse is an intense desire to obtain increasing amounts of a
particular substance. Drug dependence is the body's physical need, or
addiction, to a specific agent. Over the long term, this dependence
results in physical harm and behavior problems which causes tolerance
and cross tolerance. Thus, it creates a vicious cycle.
Legal drugs are not
necessarily safer. A study
in 2010 asked drug-harm
experts to rank various
illegal and legal drugs.
Alcohol was found to be
the most dangerous.

It is believed that
drug abuse only harms
the user but this
graph clearly depicts
that it not just harms
the person but
destroys the whole
family ,his profession,
and life.
DRUG
A TRUESTORY

Alby

From age 13 to 18,
got high several
times a day to help him cope. He went to school
high and eventually dropped out. “I was losing
focus. My attention went from 100 to zero. I was
depressed,” he says. Now, after getting substance
abuse treatment, Alby has been able to face his
problems by talking them outwith counselors and
making new friends he describes as “positive.” As
he puts it,“I feel a lot better aboutmyself. I feel a
lot sharper. I don’t feel lazy anymore.”
SOME ACTIVITIES WERE CONDUCTED BY US REGARDING
THESE ABOVE DISCUSSED TOPICS.
WE HAD TAKEN UP CLASSES 9TH, 10TH AND 11TH FOR
PERFORMING SOME ACTIVITIES AND SURVEYS.
WE HAVE EVEN VISITED A REHABILITATION CENTRE IN
OUR LOCALITY TO KNOW ABOUT THE MEDICATION AND
TREATMENT INVOLVED IN REHAB.
MOREOVER, WE MADE STUDENTS FILL UP A
QUESTIONNAIRE FOR TAKING STATISTICAL DATA
MEANING OF DRUG ABUSE

END
