THE DANGER OF DRUG ABUSE

Drug addiction and its effects to indonesian teenagers. Good morning my

beloved friends and all the respectable teachers. First of all. I am grateful for this
chance to be able stand here in this beautiful morning to deliver my speech. I am
going to address a widespread and serious problem within teenagers in
indonesian. Drug addiction and its effect. It should come as no surprise that drug
have negative effects on its user’s life. There are already many organizations and
platforms that support “say no to drugs”. We also may already heard about the
effect of drugs from various source. But my question is, how much do you really
know ? therefore i have already compiled 3 of the most dangerous side effects of
drugs addiction for us as the teenagers.
The first danger that the addicts must face is injuries. Drugs use and
injuries are closely related because of the violence tendency that comes from
drugs substance. The world health organization explains, “ drug use may be linked
to violence at the direct psycopharmacological level." They will easily commit
violent actions like hurting their friends, family, or even themselves because drugs
reduce their inhibitions.
Then, the second danger that we need to be aware of is health problem.
There’s nothing healthy about using drugs. Drug is chemical substance. There are
various effect drugs can bring to our body, and most of them are harming. People
who suffer from addiction often have one or more accompanying medical issues
both in the short and long term such as nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain for
short effect, and if it is used in the long term it can cause cardiovascular
conditions, it can also eventually damage kidneys and liver. There are still may
health problems that accompany the use of drugs. Lets be real here, it is
impossible that the doctors are very againts drug abuse if it is not dangerous for
the health.
The third effect of drug use is behavioral problems. As i said before, drugs
are chemical substance that must have bring many side effect to the user. It is
generally bad for for your brain, and consequently, it will affect your behavior.
Paranoia, aggressiveness, hallucinations, impaired judgment, impulsiveness, and
loss of self-control are some of the many behavioral problems. These problems
can damage our life.
Oke friends, after knowing the danger of drugs addiction, i hope that it can
hamper my friends curiosity in using drugs. The teen years are often a time to
explore and experiment what life can offer. If you have problems, just talk it out,
you don’t need to keep it by yourself. And if you have the urge to try drugs,
remember your future that can be ruined by using it.
We feel that’s all for speech us. Hopefully some of the points can be
beneficial to everyone. And the last, keep save and say no to drug. Thank you for
your attention.
