As students, we usually face problems regarding our family, school and friends. Sometimes, we are so occupied that we don’t know how to solve them. That’s why some people turn to drugs for refuge. Can drugs really solve your problems?

            Yes, drugs can make you feel like you’re in heaven. But taking drugs doesn’t mean that you have solved your problems. You are just running away from them and it will not make you a better person because you are just worsening the situation.

            Do you want to be one of the people that pull our country to hell? Do you want to be one of the parasites that destroy the beauty of the world?

            Why not try to focus your attention to different hobbies like sports or music? Remember that you can find the solutions to your problem when your mind is at piece. Remember also that your family and friends are always there to support and protect you.

            Instead of seeking refuge from, drugs why not talk to your friends about it? They surely have a solution to your problem. Why not talk to your parents about it? Or talk to God.

            Remember that with drugs, you will not grow old because you will die young.
