In this blog I will be taking the time to write about doing drugs and then driving. When I say drugs I am talking about weed, crystal meth and heroin. These drugs are what cause people to OD while driving. In this blog I will also be talking about how health class can help kids realize the effects of their actions before shoving a needle in them or inhaling the drug they are addicted to.
The reason I decide to choose drugs is because like texting and drinking doing drugs can affect your vision and make you cause a crash. I don’t think kids really understand the fact that when they decide to bang that needle into their arm they are taking a risk of overdosing each time. That’s scary for parents knowing their child could die from drugs and that’s terrible to have to tell people. For a lot of kids they just want to feel the first few seconds of the drug then they want more so they can keep that feeling.
With the driving part people will shoot up or snort up either while they are driving or right before they do. When people do this they don’t have much control of their body and actually can start seeing things, therefore getting into an accident. With overdosing people will pass out and lose control of their vehicle. Teens and adults are just not very smart when it comes to drugs.
The class I want to connect this topic to is health class because it teaches you to stay away from drugs. In health class they show pictures of what your lunches and body looks like after doing a drug for a few months. Health class can help a lot of kids realize that doing drugs is killing her body and they are at risk for many issues down the road. They are reaching their death point faster than someone who is healthy and stays away from drugs. In my opinion for kids to get it through their heads that doing drugs is not cool they should be taken to a hospital and make the teens see a dead body because the drug they chose killed them. Teens are just so stupied and think this makes them look cool, well news flash they look stupied for killing themselves by stabbing something in there body or inhaling something just so they get the feeling of being high.
I have never actually known someone to die from drugs but I do know people that are on them and if they don’t stop then they will be dead and able to grow up. In our generation it’s so easy to get what you want just by going on the streets of colfax or by knowing people that sell. What teens don’t realize is they buy cheap drugs that don’t do anything because teens are selling. That’s more dangerous because you don’t know what the teen did to your order. THats another reason teens are just dumn and a reason for them to look cool.
The drug dealing is a circle. The person in need reaches out to the dealer, they meet up with the price, the person buys it, goes back to their car or wherever to start to get their next fix. This is where the driving comes in because they go to there car and do there drug, then proceed to start driving. This is how accidents happen and where people can die.
I feel strongly on this subject because our youth should be more medicated, at the end of the day we are teens and think we know it all. If it can impact at least three kids the point is getting across and it can help people not take drugs and get addicted. It could also help eliminate the drug activity that goes on, in our streets which sounds pretty good to me. Help a life and save a life, is what we should work for.
