Personal Presentations... Drugs!

Diego Escudero, my classmate, today presented the topic of Drugs as part of the personal presentations for Mr. Litman's class.

He talked about the effect drugs have between our brain and body. It seems incredible but when someone gets addicted to drugs, wheather is marihuana, cocaine or extasis, the way they behave changes one hundred percent.

People who takes drugs start working less, they become self dependent of drugs and their start imagining things that are not real. Of course, school or college perfomance gets low and the capacity of thinking seems to be a hard thing to do.

Drugs not only affect the personal life of who is taking them, but also affect families and friends. What it is important is to be always aware if our children or friends are acting different... because they might be into something such as drugs.

In Chile, people from 14 years old or less take drugs and they eventually end up stealing or in jail, due to that drugs make them to things they never thought they could have done.
