The Social Effects of Drug Abuse?

Question by Reaper: The social effects of drug abuse?
Other than effecting people around them, what happens besides that? Especially to the ones who are using it(again, not around them).
If this was you, how would you solve this problem? Other than seeking professional helps?

PS: This is just a what if situation. I just made it up so don’t worry. Anyways, what’s your solution to this?

Best answer:

Answer by Paul K
Using drugs can make them act irrationally and cause them to make bad choices.

Locking people in prison for using drugs is not the answer, but when they make bad choices that result in criminal acts, the punishment for their crimes should be harder and include drug rehabilitation.
