Some young people feel depressed and nervous in a society full of tension and they want to find a means of escape. Others are bored and they think the drug makes their time pass more pleasantly.
    Taking drugs can cause only poverty and despair. When a person takes the drug, however, he forgets his misery. The drug takes away the stress and strain of living—until the effect of the drug wears off. Then, the discomfort is very intense and terrible. Because he must. take larger and larger doses, his habit becomes more and more expensive. Such people often turn to crime to get the money they need. They might break in and steal money and other valuable things or rob banks. In this way, taking drugs forces the crime rate up.
    In the United States drugs have destroyed many of the young people’s minds and ruined their bodies. So it is necessary that a campaign to forbid taking drugs be launched in the United States and other countries.
