- Drugs are substances which may have intoxicating, performance enhancing or other effects when consumed, so stay away from them
- Do not believe everything that you hear from the drug dealers
- Much of what you hear about drugs actually comes from those selling them. They never talk bad about the use of drugs. The truth is, drugs will ruin your life
- Get the facts about drugs and make your own decisions.
