Drug addiction.

Although progress has been made in substantially lowering rates of substance abuse in the United States, the use of mind- and behavior-altering substances continues to take a major toll on the health of individuals, families, and communities nationwide. In 2005, an estimated 22 million Americans struggled with a drug or alcohol problem.


From my point of view, drug use is so important for young people due to the fact that they fit into society, many young people start using drugs as if it were a game, but it is something they can regret; since I consider that getting out of an addiction is not easy. Also, many people use drugs for the reason that they have problems or maybe because their lives have not been easy, but I think it is silly to take refuge in drugs when there are many ways to get ahead, it seems to me that this is not a reason to fall into an addiction and I hope that many people before consuming any drug think that their lives from then on could change due to an addiction. There are many people who were excellent people and because of an addiction they ended up being nothing




So drugs do not leave anything good and hopefully many people can get out of their problems without consuming any type of drug and do it in a healthy way.
