A campaign against drugs

Posted by abie on 8:37 PM in ,

The use of illicit drugs is continuously spreading in our barangay. It’s like a contagious disease occurring not only in our barangay but most likely in our country. It’s been a catastrophe that must be given more focus and attention by our government. This can be due to poverty and ambivalence to some things that has been happening in their lives. At times, they use drugs to cover up the pain and depression that they are experiencing whenever they have problems.

This is the main reason why my mother decided to conduct a drug intervention in our barangay. As a barangay chairman, of course she wants to help her constituents to overcome drug addiction which is somehow considered by many as a taboo since it ruins the lives of every user. This will serve as a tutelage for the parents that seems to be apathetic regarding the lives of their children and also the users who continually become so addicted and as well as the youths to fathom the different effects of drugs in their lives.

This seminar wants to encourage users to undergo drug detox which can clean up their body from dangerous drugs and as well as alcohols. This will obviously help them avoid the different possible diseases that they can acquire because of drugs and alcohols.

Moreover, this also encourages users to have an adult addiction treatment so they will not become a victim of drug addiction anymore. And somehow, this will give them further knowledge on how drugs can ruin their lives physically, emotionally and mentally.

My mother is really hoping to push through with this subject and she hopes that she will be able to help and inspire many people. I too, hope that this will be a successful one since this will be a great start of saving so many lives.
