Drug addiction has become a major topic in global issues in today's headlines.The students post on drug education is the most needed awareness specially among the youth in today's nation.
1.Drug is an addiction that affects body mine as well as the soul.It slowly takes control of the brain and it never allows the person to come out of it very soon.
2.Only in very rare cases individuals are able to control and come out of the addiction after a long and tedious process.
3.The American statistics says that almost twenty million people are addicted to various forms of drugs in present day.
4.It not only harms the individual but also his family.It leads to family breakdown which in turn leads to social and domestic violence.
5.It creates a deep void in health issues which cannot be reversed at any cost.
6.Drug addiction is also a major reason for social crimes like theft and frauds, road accidents and child abuse which are very critical issues of a nation.
7.As the students concern every individual is supposed to have a deep awareness of saving himself from this grave issue.He should also understand its deep and negative impact on the individual and the society.
Every student should be socially aware of these problems like the social conscious student.
