Drugs are chemicals that change the way our bodies work. Some are medicines that help people when doctors prescribe(开处方) them. Many have no medical use or benefits. When taken, drugs find their way into the bloodstream. From there, they move to the brain and other parts of the body. In the brain, drugs may strengthen or dull the senses, change how alert(警觉) or sleepy people feel, and sometimes reduce physical pain. Because of the way these drugs work on the brain, they affect the ability to make healthy choices and decisions: Although drugs can make people feel good at first, they can do a lot of harm to the body and brain.
People take drugs for the pleasure they believe they can bring. Often people try to talk friends into taking drugs just because they don’t want to be the only ones doing them. Some people believe drugs will help them think better, be more popular, or become better artists or athletes. Others are curious. And some people want to fit in and take drugs because of pressure. Many people use drugs because they’re depressed or think drugs will help them escape their problems. But drugs just mask feelings and problems; they don’t solve them. The feelings and problems remain and might even be worse.
If you think you—or a friend-—may be addicted to drugs, talk to a parent, your doctor or nurse. They can help you get the help you heed. Several kinds of treatment are available for drug addiction. The two main types are behavioral(helping a person change behaviors) and pharmacological(treating a person by using medicine).
It can be hard to kick drug addiction without professional help and treatment. It takes time and isn’t something that can be done alone—everyone needs support.
