Impacts of Drugs Misuse

Drugs which contain compounds that give addictive effects for users are really
harmful. At the beginning, people, who misuse it, want to relive their stress by consuming the
addictive drugs. They do not think about the dangerous impacts which will appear after they
consume it. Teenagers often fall into this problem because their parents probably do not pay
enough attention to their children. The impacts of consuming this kind of drugs are not only
for the users, but also for their family, and even for our country.

First, the users will have the impact for themselves. They will have brain function
disorder and they do not grow normally as other teenagers. Besides, poisoning is the
symptoms that arise due to the use of drugs in a lot number, it influences their body and
behaviour. If they consume it in an excessive dose, they will get overdose that can cause
death by stoppage of respiration or brain blooding. Overdose occurs due to the tolerance so
that we need a dose which is greater or for a long time we stop consuming it, then we put up
with the former dose in use. Health damage or organ function disorder like liver, heart,
pulmonary, the kidney, the endocrine glands, reproduction, and skin diseases will also
appear.

In addition, the consumer of drugs will also get behaviour or mental-social disorders
which are hard to control. They are easily offended, outraged, withdrawn from the
community, and their relationships with family/fellow are disturbed. Their value of religion,
culture, and social life, that they have, can decline. Furthermore, economic and law issues can
be involved when the addicts are in debt to meet the need of drugs. They can steal money or
sell his personal belongings or family. If they still go to school, they can use the school fees
to buy drugs, so that they are threatened dropped out of school. Maybe, they can be arrested
by police or even in jail.

Second is the impact for their family. The comfortable and peaceful atmosphere of their
family can be disturbed. The family are worried because their belongings are lost in the house. Their
children are lying and not responsible. They steal, deceive, and become asocial. The parents are
embarrassed because their children are the addicts. The parents feel guilty, and try to cover the
child. The future of their children is unclear. The children are dropped out of school or unemployed.
Stress level increases. Parents are desperate for the increased output of money, or because their
children must be treated in the hospital for many times, maybe even live in prison. Family should
bear the burden of these socioeconomic problems.

Third is the impact for our country. The mafia of illicit trade are also trying to supply
drugs. The dealers relations with victims are connected and they create the black market.
Therefore, the market is formed and we are difficult to break the chain of their courses. The
consumers of narcotics do not have durability and sustainability so that our country’s
development is threatened. The state will suffer loss because the people are not productive
and crime increases and also the infrastructure that must be provided.

The misuse of drugs that is done by people can cause impacts not only for themselves
but also for their surroundings. The loss that they suffer is huge for this case. The impacts of
drugs misuse are really hazardous and bad for ourselves, family, and our lovely country.
