REFLECTION PAPER
Symposium about effects on illegal drugs
Awareness of Illegal drugs is a major problem in the Philippines today. Drugs are not bad in most cases. There are drugs that are so illegal that some people want to take them without knowing their effects. . Also, be aware that overuse of the drug can lead to an overdose, which can be harmful. With regard to this issue, drug education or awareness is essential to everyone’s life. Because you can know what and who each medicine is for. We also need to know how these drugs can affect our bodies and, of course, our health. At our previous symposium, I learned a lot, especially about illegal drugs and their effects. It really makes me think that illegal drugs are something we should avoid and shouldn’t try. That’s not good and it’s a way of ruining someone’s life. Today, illegal drugs are very common and we should be really aware of them because they can harm anyone and there are no exceptions. I believe there is a need to show the public how and how harmful illegal drugs can be. Drug addiction is a chronic disease that cannot be cured, but it is in fact treatable. Support groups and anti-drug programs are good ways to help drug addicts and young people relapse. In addition, some people are easily swayed. Of course, many of us would claim that temptation is difficult to overcome. Curiosity can sometimes bring us to this position. Now, come on, people, we should realize the advantages and disadvantages of having this option. It can be applied to drug use. Some people use it to be influenced by others, some think they will seem stylish but are not, and yet others use it because they are bored and want to forget about everything. To be honest, this is not the solution to your problem; it may temporarily assist you, but it will simply add to your burden. Drugs are harmful unless they are prescribed as a medicine. If you use illegal substances, you are more likely to lose control and do things you would not normally do. Generally, drug education or awareness is critical. Those with weak minds will continue to be influenced by their curiosity about drugs or by other individuals if this is not done. People will use drugs understanding only the short-term benefits they will receive, but not the long-term consequences. The program ended at past 5 o’clock in the afternoon. The symposium has been informative that it left new learning to all the students of Davao Del Sur State College Matti Digos City.
