Description

Drug abuse is may be intentional or unintentional use of drugs with harmful consequences. Drugs can affect behavior by altering mood, consciousness, and social functioning. Drug abuse includes misuse of prescription medicines and addiction to other substances.

Drug abuse is a major health problem. It produces adverse physical, psychological, and social effects that can be lethal. Drug abuse may begin with experiments or occasional use of drugs to feel good, relax, or fit in. People who try drugs frequently develop problems with them. They increase the amount of drug they consume and may use drugs compulsively.

Drug abuse can cause substantial health and social problems for individuals, families, and communities. It is associated with a variety of health problems, including abscesses (pus-producing infections), anorexia, respiratory infections, pneumonia, tuberculosis (TB), sexually transmitted diseases, heart disease and stroke. Most smokers in the US use tobacco products; this is a contributory factor to lung cancer, other cancers and cardiovascular disease.

Drug abuse is also associated with violent crime and gun violence as well as unemployment and poverty. If they live in poverty, drug users and their families are less likely to have access to health care, decent housing, jobs, and good schools. This limits the potential of family members to contribute to society and achieve self-sufficiency.

This audiobook covers:

  • How can drug abuse be prevented? 
  • What are the possible legal consequences of drug abuse? 
  • What is the cost of drug abuse to society?
  • And more...

Drug abuse can be prevented by educating the public and establishing effective, drug-free environments. Education can help young drug users develop awareness of the consequences of drug use, while helping their parents cope with the risks they pose to their children. Education helps parents recognize warning signs of child abuse and neglect, allowing them to protect their own children from drugs. Prevention programs should also include increasing opportunities for youth sports participation or other activities that provide positive alternatives to drug use.

The most important step in preventing drug abuse is protecting young people from being coerced into using drugs by peers or adults. Schools can provide effective programming for youth who are interested in making positive choices.

Prevention programs can reduce the availability of some kinds of drugs; they may also increase the cost and decrease the amount of certain drugs available on the street. Programs that help young people acquire necessary job skills so that they will be more likely to find acceptable employment and housing are also important for reducing drug abuse.

If you want to prevent drug abuse, you can learn more about. This audiobook will give you information on how to get rid of the drug problem. So get a copy of this audiobook and start listening.
