1- For popularity, more publicity, to be rebellious, to fit in
2- Because everyone has different opinions and life situations. People who are on drugs do it to mostly fit in with the crowd, or get away or avoid their problems in life. People who aren’t however, find a healthier alternative to deal with life situations or a new outlet to fit in.
3- Because some drugs are expensive, and some are not. When finding a cheaper drug people leave the more expiensive one and start using the other
4- To avoid dangerous or unsafe actions

1) A main reason that someone would use recreational drugs is as a coping mechanism for some trouble or pain they have; another reason could be that they still have problems they haven’t dealt with, and they use drugs to stop thinking about them. 2) If I were in their shoes, I would think the more common drugs would be safer, because everyone else uses them. That could also make them look less extreme compared to other drugs. 3) Some drugs, mostly called gateway drugs, can lead to more hard core drugs because of tolerance. Someone can become immune to a drug, and try to find a new way to get high. 4) By having a strong opinion against drugs early on, it can help you to reject them later.

1) People start using recreational drugs to fill a hole in their life. They feel like they need it to be happy.
2) When talking about drugs, some sound more dangerous than others. Also, I feel that if a drug is easy to get because it’s more common, people will use its popularity as a reason to believe it isn’t as dangerous.
3) Some drugs are called Gateway Drugs because they lead people to experiment with more dangerous drugs later on.
4) Values are so important. Having good values and morals is what keeps you in check. We are at such a vulnerable age. Lots of things are being forced into our minds. Things like school, family, friends, and the though of what we want to do for the rest of our lives pressure us and stress us. Having good morals and values will help us cope with the stress in a more positive way.

1. People start using them because of the environment around them, and their peers.
2. Most people say that some drugs have more negative affects than other drugs and try to stick to the more “harmless” drugs. Weed has less harmful affects than cocaine and heroine.
3. Drugs lead too other drugs for many reasons, such as cost, tolerance, and availability. If one drug is too expensive you can switch and get a better high, but it can be much more dangerous. After building up a tolerance you’d have to get more and more just to have the same high, but if you switch drugs it’s all brand new, and it’ll give you a different high.
4. When you know where you stand, it’s easier to differentiate between what’s right and what’s wrong by your own standards. You can stand firm in your beliefs and not change them based on the ignorant things that might be around you

1) People start using them either from being prescribed them, or thinking they’ll have a positive effect on them and that nothing harmful will happen. 2) Some people believe that some drugs aren’t as harmful as other. That may be true for a period of time, but in the end, your life will practically be ruined by them. They may also think that a smaller dose of them won’t harm them in any way. 3) Some drugs are almost like a starter kit into doing other drugs, meaning getting addicted to them can lead you to addiction with a much more harmful drug. 4) I believe that everyone should have a voice in their beliefs, etc. I think that you should have morals and values, because when you have those, they will mean a lot and you won’t ever want to lose them. Getting into drug and substance use means you could potentially lose all of your morals and values, and you won’t care while you’re on the drugs. If you care enough, you would never get into drugs in the first place.

1.) People start to use drugs because they want to fit in with everyone, find a way out of a situation or to escape a current problem.
2.) People feel it’s okay to use certain drugs because of what has been told to them that the drug they take isn’t bad. Some drugs have a higher risk than others and more severe consequences and people take the drugs that will get them high at the beginning. Later, they will take whatever drug needed to meet the needs of getting that better high.
3.) Some drugs lead to the use of other drugs because the drugs that aren’t as strong don’t give you the best high. Once you get addicted you want that better high which leads you to going to that next step of drugs.
4.) It is important to have morals on these issues at my age because if you set a standard for yourself now at this part in your life you won’t get addicted. This is the time in your life when people start to do these things and you must tell yourself not to or your whole life is ruined if you get addicted.
