    WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE DRUGS?

    ➢ People use drugs because they want to change something in their lives.
    • To enjoy the effect - 85 percent
    • To use for recreation - 57 percent
    • To use for relaxation - 54 percent
    • To socialise - 46 percent
    • To adapt
    • To "escape" or to relax
    • To relieve boredom
    • To be like an old man
    • To rebel
    • To experiment
    ➢ There are people who use drug because they are dependent on them.
    • Most of us will admit that we are dependent on our cars, computers, money,
    partners or friends.
    • When it comes to drug dependence, however, society tends to view it as
    something quite different from these everyday behaviours. Despite this, a
    number of authors have argued strongly for it to be considered in the same
    light.
    • Dependence is a relatively normal human experience. Most of us are
    dependent to a greater or lesser extent on something.
    ➢ Wrong View of Life
    • A negative view of things and situations around you can cause you to miss
    opportunities that only come once, to neglect problems that need to be
    solved, and to fail to take action or improve relationships and quality of life.
    ➢ Discovering a Unique Experience or curiosity
    • The inquisitive. The human motive to explore the environment is perhaps an
    evolving behavior that allows humans and animals to obtain information
    about an object or the environment, object, food that we have an interest in
    life.
    • The effects of curiosity are a journey through our mind and consciousness,
    after the eyes and ears follow the body. It is the failure to meet their need of
    critical information that causes a person to be curious.
