Knowing the origin of how we got addicted to abusing drugs is the best way of curtailing ourselves from abusing it.. some abuse drugs because thier family do so..it's very simple to make it up not to follow thier path in abusing drugs, Also some of the drug users got into abusing drugs through the friends..it's very possible to leave such a friend inorder to help bring yourself out from such bondage.
Keeping a good company |

"Show me your friend and I will tell you your future" this is one of the best wise saying.. the kind of people we mingle ourselves with, talks much about us. some are pressurised by friends to indulge in hard drugs.
Getting to know better strategies to help cope with drugs abuse |

Loneliness is also a strong factor that leads to drugs abuse.when one stay lonely and idle negative thoughts do run through the mind..so it's advisable not to stay idle.. indulge yourself in a long lasting activities such as: exercising, writing and talking to someone.
Handling peer impact on one's life |

Peer pressure is a major effect why youths indulge in drugs abuse, that's being and feeling among. Peers advice another negatively about drugs, telling them the benefits they derived from taking such.mostly which is about getting high. An ignorant youth can fall a victim to the negative advice from the friend. It's advisable to have positive peers❤️
