Drugs Are Bad! Why?
Drugs are bad-that includes pot.
Why?
drugs are bad- truth about pot
Evidence is mounting that regular marijuana
use increases the chance that a teenager will
develop psychosis, a pattern of unusual
thoughts or perceptions, such as believing the
television is transmitting secret messages.
It also increases the risk of developing
schizophrenia, a disabling brain disorder that
not only causes psychosis, but also problems
concentrating and loss of emotional
expression.
In one recent study that followed nearly 2,000
teenagers as they became young adults, young
people who smoked marijuana at least five
times were twice as likely to have developed
psychosis over the next 10 years as those who
didn’t smoke pot.
Pot changes who you are...
Teens Use Corpse Head As Bong. Texas Teens
Smoked Marijuana Out of Skull
This is definitely the sickest story we've come
across.
You're not going to believe this one. Three
teenagers in Houston, Texas admit to
authorities that they used a human head as a
bong to smoke marijuana.
The teens visited a graveyard and dug up a
body of an 11 year-old boy who died in 1921.
It's not clear whether the teens decapitated
the head themselves or if they found it like
that, but they have all confessed to smoking
marijuana out of the boy's head.

Girl, 14, dies from ecstasy overdose
Ecstasy is not safe
This girl died minutes before this
picture was taken. She lost her
fight for life 36 hours after taking
two high strength ecstasy tablets.
This picture was taken at the
request of her parents to publicize
the dangers of taking ecstasy.
From fun to none...
Ecstasy kills
Within hours, she was in convulsions and had to be rushed to the hospital.
There, she lapsed into a coma and her body temperature rose quickly, not
stopping until it reached 108 degrees. "She was bleeding everywhere," says
her mother. "Her blood cells were just erupting. Her intestines were
bleeding; her stomach was bleeding. She was bleeding from the mouth.

Meth – acne is nothing

Cocaine – yuk!
What is cocaine levamisole toxicity? It occurs when an individual snorts or smokes
cocaine contaminated with levamisole. Levamisole is a veterinary drug used to
deworm livestock that has become popular among cocaine dealers as a cutting
agent because it is inexpensive and easy to acquire. The levamisole in the cocaine
causes inflammation of blood vessels (vasculitis), manifested in the skin with
black-purple patches of the cheeks, ears, and other locations on the body.
The purple patches generally progress to necrosis, or death, of the skin cells.
Cocaine – double yuk!
