Drugs are becoming more and more common in many countries. What are the problems associated with drug abuse ,and what are some of the possible solutions?
Drug addiction has become rife nowadays among teenagers.This leads to destructive consequences.This essay will focus on the problems associated with drug abuse and provide some possible solutions.
There are many problems associated with drug abuse.Firstly,many youngmen and women take drugs for pleasure.But soon they get use to it.For example,often youngsters faceproblems with their families and friends.In order to solve there problems or get relaxation for sometime they get addict to the drugs.Secondly,drug addiction leads to a complete degeneration of man,physically and spiritually.For example,they dont listen to their elders and take quick decisions which later on leads to complicated situations.Finally,the addicts become immoral and commit various crimes in order to get drugs.For example,they lose their conscience,self-control,will-power and memory.They indulge in anti-social activities,which in turn stamp them as out castes in the society.
There are various ways to overcome this situation.Firstly,the government and other voluntary organizations should worf hand in hand.They should root out this abuse among the youth of their country.For example,they should organize seminars like 'Aversion Treatment','logo Therapy' nad many others.Secondly,develop strategies and solutions for caping with stress and anger.For example,rebuilding relationships and learning to manage day-to-day lifeis important part of maintaining recovery.It will help to prevent them from relapsing into drug addiction.Finally,the abusers must be made aware of the damage it causes to the body.Most addicts lack confidence and must be taught to become a master of the solution and not a slave to addiction.
In summary,if you or someone you know is suffering from drug addiction,the best bet is to seek professional help.Treatment does not work like magic.It works slowly,it works overtime,and it takes a lot of blood,sweat,and tears before you see real results.

Hi Rose_12 and welcome to Writefix!
A few important points:
Your conclusion is very strong, but slightly off-topic.
In summary,if you or someone you know is suffering from drug addiction,the best bet is to seek professional help.Treatment does not work like magic.It works slowly,it works overtime,and it takes a lot of blood,sweat,and tears before you see real results.
Unfortunately it almost identical to this page:http://www.spiritualriver.com/drug-addiction-essay/
On the whole, if you or someone you know is suffering from drug or alcohol addiction, your best bet is still to seek professional help. Just do not expect a magic bullet. Treatment does not work like magic. It works slowly, it works over time, and it takes a lot of blood, sweat, and tears before you see real results.
Similarly, the phrase:
Finally,the abusers must be made aware of the damage it causes to the body. Most addicts lack confidence and must be taught to become a master of the solution and not a slave to addiction.
comes from http://ezinearticles.com/?Drug-Abuse-Solutions&id=354583
The first step towards combating drug addiction is to make the abuser aware of the damage it causes the body. Most addicts lack confidence and must be taught to become a master of the situation and not a slave to addiction.
I am happy to help you with your writing, and I am sure other people on this website will also be happy to help, but it has to be YOUR writing. What's the point otherwise?
Learn from good examples. Then forget them, and write your own essay.
Thanks.
