  • Most people who take drugs are adults and teens

First reason why teens use drugs

  • Peer presure: Most teens want to be accepted and fit in with others and so when others do drugs teens would also want to join in
  • They could have instead declinded and stop hanging around these people, they should find people who would accept them

Second reason why teens use drugs

  • Self medication: Health symptoms start to be common in a teens life such as depresion and anxiety, some teens try to use drugs to treat these symptoms.
  • They should talk to someone about these symptoms before taking medication or else it will end in disaster

Third reason why teens take drugs

  • Performance improvment: with everything going on in there life teens might look to drugs in order to meet those expectations going on in life
  • They don't need to meet every expectation, and if they get too stressed out they should go take a break instead

Fourth reason why teens use drugs

  • Experimental: Teens are curious about everything like drugs they wonder what its like of being on drugs and so they do it
  • They shouldn't do this or else they could end up dead, you know the saying curiosity killed the cat

Fifth reason why teens use drugs

  • To feel grown up: Most teens want to feel like adults since its exiting to be an adult and drive a car, or drink, or smoke and so teens do that, they smoke, they drink, and they do drugs
  • They shouldn't do this or they could suffer many diseases throughout their lives, such as liver cancer, brain damage, or lung cancer
