Surely you’ve asked yoursel
why so much fuss about alcohol and drugs
But before we wonder why you would use them.
Because you think you are not popular
and you want to belong to a group
Do you want to forget something? Or Do you want to look older?
Your friends use them and also it’s trendy
Or you want to try
And you think,
if everyone does it, why not me?
Many times you’ve heard about them…
but have you truly been informed about the consequences
Don’t be fooled!
Drugs can reach you through friends or people close to you.
You may be told, once is not dangerous
It will be a life time experience!
You’ll like it besides you´ll have fun
They´d tell everything you want to listen in order for you to get them…
How much is little?
One thing leads you to the other…
and finally
You have no idea of the consequences
it can lead you to lie, steal or do something worse.
Sometimes it’s difficult to bare something that happened to you
but by taking drugs it will turn out to be worse.
I’ll find yourself alone, lose your family and beloved ones
your friends, your job, things that you enjoy are not longer important to you
and you waste many good opportunities in your life.
Drugs and alcohol are everywhere:
At school, with friends,
At the theather, magazines, on tv, and internet…
It´s a very serious problem
The stats say alcohol causes 2.5 million casualties each year
2.5 million
About 320 000 young people among 15 to 29 years old
die because of accidents related to alcohol consumption
Besides alcohol is responsible of countless car accidents and suicides.
Indeed, Ahcohol is not that bad as long as it is taken moderately and in a responsible way.
But you should be careful, alcohol can lead you to the use of other drugs.
It’s believed that 208 million people take illegal drugs around the world.
ironic, isn’t it?
There are millions of people dying every year from diseases that they didn’t want to have
and on the other hand there are millions poisoning themselves by taking alcohol or any other drug.
Do yourself a favor
Do some research, check stats, get into conferences,
find the truth about drugs and alcohol!!
We need young people who can laugh, love, value friendship
and get excited from the depth of their being.
Who can reach their dreams,
because someone who pursues his dreams
life may have a special meaning.
Look upon yourself, nobody can stop you.
If we prevent addictions Now,
Nobody can take our future away
The desicion is all yours!!
