There was a case where a young person got involved with ice. It quickly ruined their physical health. Their teeth decayed, they lost a lot of weight in an unhealthy way, and they constantly had skin problems. Mentally, they became paranoid and had hallucinations, which led them to be a danger to themselves and others. They were once a bright student with a promising future, but ice destroyed all that.
There was a story of a girl who was pressured into trying ice by her so - called friends. Once she started, she couldn't stop. She began to isolate herself from her real friends and family. Her appearance changed drastically. She had sunken eyes and a gaunt look. She also started having mental problems. She would often hear voices in her head, telling her to do dangerous things. One time, she almost jumped off a building while under the influence. Her family tried to get her help, but she was too far gone in her addiction at that point.
I knew someone who tried LSD. His experience was a nightmare. He started having a 'bad trip' where he felt like he was falling into an endless void. He couldn't distinguish between what was real and what was the drug - induced hallucination. His heart was racing uncontrollably, and he was sweating profusely. He thought he was going to die. It took him a long time to recover both physically and mentally from that one LSD use.
One horror story is when a person had unknowingly taken a cough medicine that contained an ingredient that showed up as a drug on the test. They got in trouble at work even though they were just trying to get better from a cold.
One horror story is about a young man who started using meth. He quickly lost his job as his appearance deteriorated and he became paranoid. His friends abandoned him, and he ended up living on the streets, stealing to get money for his next fix. His teeth rotted, and his skin was full of sores. It was a tragic downfall all because of drug use.
One horror story is about a young man who started using drugs in college. He became addicted to heroin. His life spiraled out of control. He lost his friends, dropped out of school, and stole from his family to get money for drugs. Eventually, he ended up in jail, his health in ruins.
One horror story is about a person who took PCP and thought they could fly. They climbed onto a rooftop and jumped, resulting in serious injuries. PCP can cause extreme hallucinations and a complete loss of touch with reality, leading people to engage in very dangerous behaviors.
Another consequence is the threat from drug gangs. If they fail in their mission or get caught, the gangs may harm their families. In some horror stories, the mules' families have been kidnapped or killed as a form of revenge by the gangs they worked for.
One horror story is about a young man who used Spice. He started having extreme paranoia. He thought everyone was out to get him and locked himself in a room for days without eating. Eventually, his family had to call the police to break in and get him help.
Addiction is a very common element. Once people start taking drugs, they often can't stop, like in the case of heroin addicts. Another is the destruction of relationships. Family and friends are pushed away as the drug - user becomes more self - centered in getting their fix.
