People
who use drugs usually get addicted to it also with alcohol. Drug problems among
you Americans are more common than you might think. There are an estimated1.5
million Americans, age 12 and older that use cocaine. Drug related deaths
remain near historic highs. There are many ways you can tell when someone you
care about has a problem with drugs or alcohoIncreased interest in alcohol or
other drugs
Owning
drug paraphernalia such as pipes, hypodermic needles, or rolling papers.
Having
large amounts of cash or always being low on cash.
Drastic
increase or decrease in weight.
Sometimes
slurred or incoherent speech.
Withdrawal
from others, frequent lying, depression or paranoia. Some people drink to let their
anger out but then they get addicted to it. Some kids if they do drugs there eyes
turn red and they turn all hipper. This can lead kids to a bad future. For example
if you see a kid that’s 11 or 13 the might have a cigarette in their hand but
they think it makes them look cool. It really doesn’t it makes them look like
if they weren’t raised right. Or if they talk about it them saying that they
tried it and that they won’t get addictive to it but they do and that will mess
up their life. Confronting a friend about drugs is not easy. They may
get very angry at you. Although only your friend can decide to quit using
drugs, your concern may help them make that decision. Let your friend know that
you care for them and will help them in anything. If you’re confronting a
friend about their problem already know what and how you will tell them. Use a
calm voice and do not get in an argument with them.
