In some instances, teens get their drugs from a source in their family. Whether it be the father, mother, or older sibling. Or, the teen may be dealing with a death and feels like the only way to stop the grief is through drugs. In this case, the teenager should consider counseling or therapy.

Drugs are often used to relieve stress. However stress can and should be relieved in other ways like engaging physical activity. This option is better than hurting your body through drugs.
