Blog On Drugs


My opinion on drugs is probably quite a bit different to what most people think. To me drugs are a way of escaping reality. When we had the lecture on hallucinogenics, i found what the lecturer had to say was very interesting. Drugs became very popular through the 60s.
To me a lot of drugs are used so that people can relax or forget about the stress related activities of real life. A lot of people say that all drugs are wrong and that they all should be made illegal. But drugs are another sense of medication. certain drugs might be better for some people who might be dealing with depression, or something else that makes them struggle from day to day. I do think though that drugs are over idolised and it can be seen quite easy for young teenagers to feel that drugs aren't as bad as people say, because of how they are portrayed through tv shows.
The link below shows that scientists are using drugs in order to boost peoples brain power. This is another reason why i feel that drugs are always gonna be a part of society, but still there will be a large amount of people that will be against drugs completely.
