The course of the conversation

Hello guys! Today we will talk about the problem of drug addiction. Please define the terms "drug addiction"

Now tell me if you agree with the following statements:

Drug addiction is a crime.

Drug addiction is a disease.

Drug addiction is incurable.

Drug addicts are zombies.

An addict can die from a drug overdose.

An addict can die from AIDS.

Addiction is a disease that can be cured.

The addict has no friends.

The term drug addiction comes from the Greek words narke, meaning numbness, and mania, meaning madness. Traditionally, "addiction" is a medical term. This is a disease that is expressed in the physical and mental dependence on drugs, gradually leading to a deep depletion of the physical and mental functions of the body. Drug addiction is a painful, irresistible addiction to narcotic drugs, medicines, pills. The body, accustomed to drugs, experiences such a strong irresistible desire to avoid the pain that occurs during the withdrawal syndrome that a person goes to any lengths: deceit, theft, even murder, just to get drugs. The addict is deprived of all other joys of life and sentences himself to an early painful death.

All over the world, narcotic and psychotropic substances are strictly controlled. They are prescribed and used under the supervision of doctors. The production, sale and use of certain drugs, such as hashish, are generally prohibited.

Do you think there are any distinguishing features in people who use drugs? Can you tell by appearance?

When a teenager starts using drugs, you can notice changes in his behavior. This is a growing indifference to what is happening nearby; leaving home and absenteeism from school; difficulty concentrating, memory impairment; inadequate response to criticism; frequent sudden mood swings. Signs - "evidence" - are traces of injections, cuts, bruises; rolled up pieces of paper, capsules, etc. Drug addiction is also expressed in sleep disturbance, muscle and joint pain, decreased sexual potency, weight loss and violation of the protective properties of the body.

What can you say about drug addiction and AIDS? What is HIV infection in general?

Children:

This disease appeared in the 20th century. It refers to diseases in which the latent period can last from several months to several years.

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has been spreading rapidly in recent years.

AIDS is a disease that is transmitted through the blood, anyone can get sick with it. First of all, of course, these are drug addicts who use other people's syringes or collect drugs from a common container.

AIDS and drug addiction are inseparable. Drug use is becoming one of the most acute social problems and a serious test for society in general and the younger generation in particular. This can concern each of us, our relatives and friends, unfortunately, even children. The average age of the first drug use is 13 years old and is constantly decreasing, there are teenagers who use drugs at 11 years old. Injecting drug use poses a threat of HIV infection not only for drug users. It is known that one drug addict involves from 10 to 15 people into drug addiction. Prudence, fortitude and endurance in risky situations, the ability to say “no” in response to persistent persuasion, the ability to stand up for your dignity, honor, even if it is difficult, will save you from AIDS and other dangerous diseases.

Is drug use illegal? Can you go to jail for using drugs?

Schoolchildren: According to Russian laws, all processes related to narcotic substances are under the control of the state. In our country, the Law “On Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances” has been adopted. Its content primarily determines the position of the state in relation to the use of drugs, the procedure for controlling the distribution of narcotic substances, etc. Thus, Article 40 states: "In the Russian Federation, the consumption of narcotic drugs without a doctor's prescription is prohibited."

Chapter 25 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation "Crimes against public health and public morals" contains a number of articles that provide for penalties for drug-related actions.

Criminal liability in our country comes from the age of 16. However, under Article 229, 14-year-olds are already liable. At the same time, it should be understood that even a negligible amount of drugs that a representative of the law finds serves as the basis for detention and a whole chain of troubles.

What can you say about the state of drug addiction in the country?

The growth of drug addiction sharply exacerbates the problem of AIDS. Every day, 6,000 people around the world become infected with HIV, 70% of them come to this through intravenous drug use.

What are the ways to solve drug addiction problems?

Pupils:

Strengthen drug control;

Create an informal association at the place of residence, since it is about the health of the whole society.

In today's difficult situation with drug trafficking in Russia, society faces an important task - to resist the spread of drug addiction with all its might. Today in our country there are over 950 drug groups that control this criminal market and have extensive connections outside of Russia. The regions whose geographical location is connected with the Urals have recently attracted the attention of drug dealers more and more. The alarming situation forces the state to literally declare war on the drug mafia. Only during the first ten months of the work of the drug control of Russia, about 33 thousand drug crimes were revealed, about 29 tons of drugs were seized, 74 clandestine laboratories and more than 1,300 other places of illegal drug manufacture were liquidated.

So, the beginning of the global confrontation with drugs has been laid. It is gratifying that society has also joined this struggle.

Public organizations are active in this area. But the most important thing is that young people finally begin to understand that drugs are not at all joy and bliss, but certain death. If this fact is understood, then drug addiction will be finished forever!

According to experts, drug addiction, as a rule, is combined with alcoholism. On the one hand, those young people who start in their school years begin to use strong alcoholic beverages and then quickly switch to drugs. On the other hand, many drug addicts seek to compensate for the lack of drugs with alcohol.

What are the consequences of drug addiction?

The biological consequences include a progressive decline in activity, the energy potential of the individual, the extinction of drives, biological needs (food, sleep, etc.), a decrease in resistance, and a progressive depletion of the body. In the most general form, the socio-psychological consequences of drug addiction can be described as the moral and ethical degradation of the individual, first decreasing, and then gradually losing the value of all other interests and needs, except for drug use. The mechanism of criminal consequences of drug addiction is determined and can be presented in the following form. A drug addict, in order to satisfy his desire, is forced to first skip, and then completely leave school or work, is forced to look for illegal ways to acquire them, most often through theft, robbery, etc. In the absence of money, the addict does not stop at any means to achieve the goal, including murder. Drug addiction is also associated with suicide, where the main reason is dissatisfaction with life.

Thank you for the frank conversation. Think about your future and don't let drugs devastate your life and the lives of your loved ones.

REMEMBER:

DO NOT TAKE AND DO NOT TOUCH!

DO NOT TOUCH AND DO NOT TRY!

Event progress:

Teacher: Today we will talk with you about drug addiction and drugs. What is addiction and what are drugs? (children's versions).

Teacher: D horny guys! We are in danger. This trouble isaddiction. Until recently, news of it reached us only from foreign countries. Now it has come to us and is spreading according to the laws of an epidemic: one drug addict infects five in a year. Drug addiction is a painful irresistible addiction to drugs that cause mental disorders, hallucinations, delirium. From a medical point of view, there is no difference between drug addiction and substance abuse: severe mental disorders, destruction of all organs and systems of the human body, premature death - these are the consequences for health in both cases. Most often, the use of narcotic drugs begins at a young age, often 10-12-year-old children are involved in drugs and toxic substances.

The main motive pushing young people to drug addiction is curiosity and imitation, and sometimes more experienced comrades accustom and force the use of drugs, who drag newcomers into their networks, “treating” with an expensive potion. There is often a popular belief among young people that if you take a drug just once for testing, there is nothing terrible about it. However, this is a dangerous delusion. The desire to repeat the experienced sensations of intoxication leads to a slavish dependence on the drug. Gradually, all the interests and hobbies that a teenager previously had disappear. Weakness, insomnia, loss of appetite, emaciation appear.

The appearance of a person who constantly takes a narcotic potion is far from attractive: rotten teeth, premature baldness, icteric gray skin, a face with early wrinkles - a typical portrait of a drug addict. Taking a drug necessarily leads to a change in the human psyche, which is manifested in rudeness, indifference to others, cruelty, and difficulties in communication. The behavior of the addict is so dependent on this feeling of momentary pleasure that it is impossible to make him comprehend the imminent danger. After a certain time, there comes a moment when he needs drugs not at all for a cheerful mood, but to maintain a relatively normal state of health. Life without them becomes impossible. Very often, young people themselves prepare intoxicating and narcotic substances (in an artisanal way) and administer them to all members of the "family" - this is how they call their groups. The morals of such a family are inhuman and cruel! The one who rolled down, who cannot steal, becomes an experimental "rabbit", an unknown drug is tested on him, not knowing what his effect will be. He accepts first - either dies or survives. It's scary, but still a gift. After all, unfortunate sick people who are used to drugs are ready to give any money for one dose. A painful dependence on a drug pushes a person to do everything - deceit, theft and even murder, just to get the drug.

Among drug addicts, there are often cases of one of the most serious diseases of our time - AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), which is not amenable to any treatment. Drug addicts destroy not only themselves and their loved ones, but also future offspring, as their children are born with deep mental and physical deformities. Those who use drugs most often die young. Doctors rarely encounter old drug addicts, since these people do not even live to middle age. This is due not only to the depletion of the body, which is unable to withstand the exhausting invigoration of stimulants, but also to frequent suicide attempts, drug overdose, blood poisoning with a dirty syringe, and the development of a number of comorbidities. Boys and girls, remember! The mere fact of a one-time use of a drug or inhalation of volatile toxic substances can be the cause of your death. Even a single drug intake forms a severe disease and increases the risk of contracting an incurable disease (AIDS). Never try drugs. For minutes in dope - terrible consequences.

DRUGS: HOW TO SAY NO In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in the use of various narcotic substances in the country's schools, including the most dangerous ones, such as heroin. In this regard, anti-drug propaganda has become extremely relevant. A special role here belongs to biology teachers, as they are the most knowledgeable about the mechanisms of action of drugs, and about all the dangers associated with their use. While having a confidential conversation with students about all the negative consequences of drug use, it is important to simultaneously talk about the methods of involving teenagers in drug traffickers. A paradoxical fact is noted all over the world: despite all the efforts in the fight against drugs, the awareness of young people about the true consequences of their use is declining. A growing number of young people believe that the use of certain types of drugs does not cause much harm.

Myth one. Try it - everyone tries it. This is not true: surveys show that in the United States, for example, less than one in five high school students uses marijuana. Of course, these figures are also very alarming, but more than 80% of young men could not be persuaded to use drugs. They will never again be victims of drug addiction! Most often, teenagers of low psychological foundations become victims of false argumentation: conflict, prone to petty theft, deceit, prone to outbursts of anger, aggressiveness. Such individuals are incapable of purposeful activity, do poorly, lag behind in psychophysiological development. They later become drug dealers, which is inevitable, since only in this way can they provide themselves with money for drugs.

Myth two. Try it - there will be no harmful effects. It's a lie. First of all, addiction to some drugs can occur after one or two doses. In addition, there are individual differences in the sensitivity of the body, even death is possible at the first injection. A large variation in individual sensitivity is characteristic, for example, of cocaine and its derivatives ("crack"), which sometimes leads to death due to heart failure. Under conditions of clandestine home-made drug production, it is impossible to get rid of harmful impurities and precisely dose the substance. In clinical practice, many cases of severe poisoning caused by toxic impurities in homemade drugs have been described.

Myth three. Try it - if you don't like it, stop taking it. Schoolchildren have heard something about physical dependence (“breaking”). However, they are convinced that it can be overcome, for example, with the help of doctors. Say, there will be no special problems, since a person with a certain will (and you, of course, strong-willed!), Is able to immediately and irrevocably stop taking drugs. At the same time, there is usually a witness who is familiar with someone who, after a period of serious abuse, having shown his will, went through a "withdrawal" and now has not been using drugs for a month (two, three) - no consequences.

Often such propaganda achieves its goal, because, despite seeming awareness, adolescents still do not have elementary knowledge about the nature and nature of the most serious disease - drug addiction. That is why it is necessary to explain that, firstly, when using any kind of drug, both "light" and "heavy", the will suffers first of all. This is noticeable already when other personality changes are not yet manifested. What happens is what narcologists call "energy decline": it is the volitional qualities of the individual that are weakened, the sense of purpose is reduced or lost, i.e. a person becomes incapable of productive activity, often stops studying, quits work. Secondly, remission (especially when using drugs such as heroin) is short-lived. After a certain period (up to several months), the patient is again seized by an uncontrollable desire to take the drug, and the cycle of the disease is repeated again with more severe consequences. Remission lasting up to a year is observed only in a very small number of patients (about 10%), and in people of mature age. The importance here is the presence of a family and the preservation of a certain social position. It is clear that teenagers do not fall into this category.

Students should be aware that at present medicine is not able to provide effective help to drug addicts. In her arsenal there are no real means of suppressing mental dependence. The fact is that the brain "remembers" everything. This, in particular, is illustrated by the pseudo-withdrawal syndrome, when after a period of quite a long abstinence (8-10 months) a drug addict may again experience symptoms of even “withdrawal”.

Myth four. About the existence of "harmless" drugs. There are no harmless soft drugs. Not all drugs cause physical dependence, but all of them, even with minor use, adversely affect the personality. It is appropriate to recall that psychic dependence often develops even in the case of the use of such "soft" drugs as marijuana. In the United States, more than 100,000 people annually go to clinics trying to recover from drug addiction - marijuana. The use of marijuana is often accompanied by a weakening of the volitional qualities of a person, a loss of motivation: interest in what is happening in life is lost, the desire to work, study disappears, a person does not care how he looks. A common symptom of marijuana use is impaired short-term memory, attention, which is associated with the death of nerve cells in certain areas of the brain. Smoking marijuana weakens the immune system and makes the person more susceptible to infections. Finally, it was revealed that almost all drug addicts who resort to the most "heavy" drugs started by trying marijuana.

When telling schoolchildren about myths, the teacher should specifically pay attention to the fact that each of them can become the object of attention of a "well-wisher". In this case, they must be ready to resolutely reject any attempts to involve them in the most dangerous "occupation" for the human person. Teenagers should know that that “kind” friend or acquaintance who will convince you to try “weed” just out of curiosity, they say, if you don’t like it, you can always quit, as a rule, pursues the most selfish goals, cruelly using an inexperienced young man. The student needs to remember that none of the dying drug addicts was going to continue taking drugs, everyone just wanted to try, to satisfy their curiosity. The end, as a rule, is tragic: human destiny and life are ruined.

Children must explain why they agree or disagree with a particular statement.

Educator: The term drug addiction comes from the Greek words narke - "numbness" and mania - "madness, madness." Traditionally, "addiction" is a medical term. This is a disease that is expressed in the physical and mental dependence on drugs, gradually leading to a deep depletion of the physical and mental functions of the body.

All over the world, narcotic and psychotropic substances are strictly controlled. They are prescribed and used under the supervision of doctors. The production, sale and use of certain drugs, such as hashish, are generally prohibited.

Educator: Do you think there are any distinguishing features in people who use drugs? Can you tell by appearance?

(Answer options for children: worsening of behavior; indifference; bruises, cuts, microtraumas; reddened eyes, altered pupils, swelling).

Educator: When a teenager starts using drugs, you can notice changes in his behavior. This is a growing indifference to what is happening nearby; leaving home and absenteeism from school; difficulty concentrating, memory impairment; inadequate response to criticism; frequent sudden mood swings. Signs - "evidence" - are traces of injections, cuts, bruises; rolled up pieces of paper, capsules, etc. Drug addiction is also expressed in sleep disturbance, muscle and joint pain, decreased sexual potency, weight loss and violation of the protective properties of the body.

Educator: What can you say about drug addiction and AIDS? What is HIV infection in general?

This disease appeared in the 20th century. It refers to diseases in which the latent period can last from several months to several years.

It is known that one drug addict involves from 10 to 15 people into drug addiction. Prudence, perseverance and endurance in risky situations, the ability to say “no” in response to persistent persuasion, the ability to stand up for your dignity, honor, even if it is difficult, will save you from AIDS and other dangerous diseases

Educator: Is the use of drugs punishable by law? Can you go to jail for using drugs?

At the same time, it should be understood that even a negligible amount of drugs that a representative of the law finds serves as the basis for detention and a whole chain of troubles.

Teacher: What can you say about the state of drug addiction in the country, in the republic?

(Schoolchildren's answers: the state is catastrophic, it is a quiet war, where there are no bombs, shells and soldiers with machine guns).

Teacher: Yes, that's right, Russia has suffered a misfortune comparable only to the war: the number of drug addicts in the country is growing by leaps and bounds. The number of drug addicts in the 1990s increased by more than 9 times; currently, almost 500,000 drug users are registered in Russia, 60 percent of whom are people aged 18 to 30 years. According to experts, there are 3.5 million drug addicts in the country. Over the past four years, the number of schoolchildren and students who use drugs has increased 6-8 times. “Family drug addiction” and even the involvement of young children by parents have become widespread. The number of deaths from drug use has increased over the past 10 years among the Russian population by 12 times, among children by 42 times.

The growth of drug addiction sharply exacerbates the problem of AIDS. Every day, 6,000 people around the world become infected with HIV, 70% of them come to this through intravenous drug use.

Appendix 1

WARNING - DRUGS

DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS!

We are in danger. This problem is addiction. What it is? Drug addiction is a painful, irresistible addiction to narcotic drugs, medicines, pills. The body, accustomed to drugs, experiences such severe pain without drugs that a person goes to any lengths: deception, theft, even murder, just to get drugs. Drugs - a ruthless cry that demands: "Steal, kill, get another dose, take it, otherwise I will subject you to terrible torture."

Why do people become drug addicts? Are they being forced? Not! Forced into addiction! There is a terrible deception here. Drugs are very expensive. The people who distribute them make huge profits. You can't earn that kind of money with hard work. And the sellers need buyers, that is, the unfortunate, accustomed to drugs, ready to give any money for them. Therefore, newcomers are offered this poison almost for free, persuading: “Try it, it's nice. It is interesting". Or “Drugs are for the brave, aren't you a coward? Not? So try it!" But there is no courage here. On the contrary, only one who does not go on about, refuses poison can consider himself courageous.

Drug dealers specifically send their man to a group of teenagers so that the teenagers become infected with this disease and start buying the potion. Drug dealers promise, threaten, lure, pretending to be ordinary boys and girls; They will do anything to get you to try at least once. They make a profit and you pay with your life. After all, even one, the first dose, can be the beginning of death! No one knows how drugs will affect your body. Someone tried once - and nothing, but you try - you get used to it and disappear! Drugs kill even the strongest, smartest people, destroy memory, will, make them mentally and physically disabled, a burden on the family and society, force them to lead a secret life, push them to commit crimes.

Youths! Take care girls! Drugs act on them even worse than on you, and it is almost impossible to cure the girls. Young people, if you feel even a little like a man, snatch the poison out of the hands of a girl and never be seduced by the drug yourself.

You know smoking is bad for your health. You know how dangerous alcohol is for a person. Drugs are deadly! Do not smoke and never take someone else's cigarettes - they may contain drugs. Do not touch alcohol - poison may be mixed into it.

Remember that drug addiction is not a sweet pastime, not pampering, not a pleasant pastime in the company, but a deadly disease. Incurable, terrible, painful, the whole horror of which lies in the fact that at first it seems like a harmless occupation.

Keep in mind that the disease of drug addicts and the greed of the distributors make them vile people. Where there are drugs, there is nothing to expect honesty and justice, where people are capable of anything. Beware of drugs!

Under no circumstances, under any pretext, not out of curiosity, not for courage, not out of a sense of camaraderie, either alone or in a group, do not take, do not try, do not smell drugs, do not touch them! If trouble happened to you, then today refuse the next dose, while there is still at least a little reason in your head. Tomorrow he will leave you.

All this must be known, this must be remembered! Let the number of drug addicts not increase by one person. If you are being persuaded, forced to take a drug, if you feel that you have fallen into such networks, then immediately consult with an adult you trust.

This memo is a warning. Most of you have never met either drugs or drug addicts and only know about them from newspapers and TV shows. But with any attempt to seduce you with a drug, infect you with drug addiction, remember what you read about.

REMEMBER:

DO NOT TAKE AND DO NOT TOUCH!

DO NOT TOUCH AND DO NOT TRY!

Lesson progress

Leading. Hello guys! Today we will have an unusual lesson in which we will talk about a topical problem - the problem of drug addiction. At the end of our lesson, each of you, including me, will draw certain conclusions for himself regarding surfactants.

Now I will draw a person on the board. Let's immediately decide who we will have - a girl or a boy? What will we name our teenager (preferably by a name that is not in the class)? How old will our teenager be?

Guys, now let's try to create a collective image of our teenager, endowing him with positive and negative qualities of character. (The guys name the positive and negative qualities of the collective image of a teenager).

Now let's digress a little from our teenager and brainstorm. Please tell me why teenagers start using drugs? Why do they need it?

To help the leader . Reasons for using drugs:

Out of curiosity;

Solidarity, not to be a "black sheep";

Lack of understanding of relatives;

Dysfunctional family;

Desire to conform to a certain lifestyle;

Desire to be considered an adult;

Desire to weaken self-control;

Desire to relax;

For a buzz;

For courage;

relieve pain, etc.

Leading. Tell me, guys, do you think the reasons why teenagers start using drugs are external or internal (psychological)?

To help the leader . The facilitator should emphasize that the reasons why teenagers start using drugs are internal, i.e. psychological

Leading. Guys, what can be done to solve the same problems and achieve the same states without using drugs?

(The guys call

- sing;

- to meet friends;

- listen to music;

- play on the computer;

- go to the pool

- go to a disco

- watch an interesting movie;

Leading. That is, each of you has your own ways of getting joy. Now I will draw a graph of the human emotional state, where the y-axis will be emotions, and the x-axis will be time.

In a normal state, our mood rises, then drops, etc. We all live, being subject to these fluctuations. Not a single person, even the most famous, lives all the time in joy, all the time in pleasure, and after his rise he always has a decline. And there are no such people who are constantly in a state of depression, they always have an upsurge after a decline in mood.

When you're in a good mood, you usually feel great about life, you don't have problems, and you don't do bad things. As soon as the mood drops, it starts to seem to you that you got the worst school, the worst parents, etc. And at this moment it is very important who is next to the person. If he hears words of support: everything will be fine, after the black bar there will be white, etc., then it will be much easier for him to get out of the state of mood decline, otherwise there is a high risk of falling into companies that use surfactants.

Drug addiction is a process containing 4 stages, and like any process, it has a beginning and an end.

Now I will draw a ball on the board that is rolling down.

Stage 1. First samples

At the first stage, acquaintance with drugs takes place, this stage, therefore, is called “first trials”.

This stage is characterized by:

Natural curiosity, the desire to "just try";

Active search for new types of "high";

Inability to say "no";

Difficulty understanding one's own boundaries;

Falling under the influence of various myths about drugs;

Fear of being branded as a "black sheep" or "sissy";

Unconscious desire to escape from the complexities of life (or conscious);

Disregard for yourself and your life;

Desire to make your life interesting and fulfilling;

Ignorance of how drugs actually act on the human psyche and body.

There are two ways after the first trials:

1) completely stop using;

2) to continue using, which inevitably leads to the transition to the next stage of development of drug dependence.

II stage. Likes to use drugs

The second stage usually includes those people who liked “this state”. And the ball rolled down.

This stage is characterized by:
- a conscious desire to get "high" with the help of drugs;
- search for reasonable excuses for use;
- search for a "suitable" company;
- drugs become a necessary attribute of fun and relaxation;
- drugs begin to be used as:
remedy against "complexes";
stress medicine;
way of communication;
companion of sexual relations;
- you can notice an increase in the dose required to obtain the desired sensations;
- a special "party" is formed - their own drugs, their own music, clothing style, humor.
If a person continues to use drugs, he switches from smaller doses to larger ones, and from less powerful substances to stronger ones.
When a person enters the 2nd stage of addiction, he understands that people close to him will not approve of the fact that he uses drugs, but he likes this state, and therefore he is forced to justify his behavior, and then various myths arise, for example:
- There is no addiction from one time ...
I will control myself...
- I am strong, I will control myself ...
- Those who have become drug addicts are weak and weak-willed ...
- Cannabis is not a drug, there is no addiction to it ...
- When I feel that the addiction begins, I will quit ...
If a person does not stop using, the next stage of addiction development begins.
III stage. Problems arise
The ball rolls further down.
This stage is characterized by:
- health problems (breaking, discomfort after use, infectious diseases);
- loss of control over behavior (injuries, violence, crime);
- promiscuity in sex (venereal diseases, unwanted pregnancy, relationship problems);
- scandals in the family;
- problems with studies, troubles at school;
- financial difficulties (debts, selling things from home, constant search for money);

Conflicts with friends;
- the main social circle - those who use drugs;
- Conflicts with the law, drives to the police.
At this stage, physical dependence occurs. The drug does not bring the desired pleasure, but is used to bring the body back to normal.
It is almost impossible to stop using at this stage on your own, you need the help of specialists. Continued use necessarily leads to the transition to the next stage of development of dependence.
IV stage. Drug use becomes a goal
At the fourth stage, our ball gets into a cycle, from which it is difficult to get out. Rolling down is always easy, but going back, as you can see, is very difficult.
This stage is characterized by:
- use for the sake of use;
- constant need for drugs;
- the use of extreme means, in search of a dose;
- destruction of moral values;
- apathy and unwillingness to live, loss of the meaning of existence;
- suicide attempts;
- serious health problems, the occurrence of chronic diseases;
- separation from family, friends, society.
At this stage, if a person does not stop using drugs, he dies. Statistics show that out of 100 drug addicts, only 3% recover, that is, out of 100 people who get sick, only 3 people survive, all the rest simply die.
It so happened that our teenager, for one of the above reasons, begins to use drugs. What do you think will change in his appearance? What will change in his character? What will be his behavior?
AT assistance to the leader. Outward signs of a drug user. The person who uses drugs is usually swaggering, talkative, overly relaxed and clingy, and having a lot of fun for no reason. He is fussy and sloppy. Aggressive behavior, weakly controls his behavior, his coordination and accuracy of movements are disturbed, his critical attitude to behavior and situation, the instinct of self-preservation are reduced. There is a decrease in memory, attention and visual impairment.
What is the life expectancy of a drug addict?
AT assistance to the leader. The average life expectancy of drug addicts is 10-15 years.

Guys, do you think drug addiction is curable?

To help the leader . Drug addiction is a disease of the soul. A drug addict is not treated: he rebuilds his psyche, adapts to a new life without drugs.

Now back to our teenager. It so happened that our teenager, by virtue of his will, with the help of specialists and with the support of relatives, coped with the problem of drug addiction.

Finished school, went to university. Let's dream up, which university did he enter?

What will be his profession?

What will he be interested in (his hobby)?

Will he have his own family?

Will he have children, how many?

Will he have his own home?

What will be the car?

Will he make a career?

Where will he go on vacation?

Well! Well done!

Looking at this picture, I understand that drugs are BAD. You will make YOUR choice yourself.

Thank you for your attention! It was easy for me to work with you!

About the dangers of alcohol

Alcohol is present in the life of almost every person. Someone drinks on holidays, someone likes to relax with a portion of alcohol on weekends, someone abuses strong drinks all the time. Alcohol has an unprecedented effect on the human body, causing harm in any dose. If you try to ask why alcohol is harmful, most will not be able to give an exhaustive answer.So, alcohol is not safe for the body. Let's start with the circulatory system.

The supply of oxygen through the vessels is regulated by myriads of red blood cells, which have some fatty coating. Under the influence of alcohol-containing liquids that have entered the body, alcohol penetrates into the blood, degreasing red blood cells. Having lost their elastic and sliding properties, erythrocytes begin the process of sticking together. The resulting clot, like a snowball, as it moves forward, wraps more and more red blood cells around itself. Thus, the flow of oxygen through the capillaries and vessels is reduced or completely stopped.

The main damage caused by erythrocyte clots is caused to the brain, in which, due to lack of oxygen, cell death begins.

But not only the brain is exposed to the dangerous effects of alcohol. The whole body is subject to oxygen deficiency. Due to clogging of blood vessels with clots, the flow of oxygen-enriched blood stops flowing to all organs and tissues of our body.

Seeing when a person who has consumed alcohol falls and falls asleep, we write it off, simply in a state of intoxication. But not everything is so simple. In a person who has fallen from alcohol influence, a kind of coma occurs, caused by blockage of blood vessels. From a lack of oxygen, the body cannot be controlled and a person's legs give way, speech becomes illegible. Hypoxia of the brain, which brings a person into a state of "not standing", is nothing more than oxygen starvation. An organism that lacks oxygen in order to prolong its existence suspends its metabolism and reduces the movement of muscles and joints.

When drinking alcohol, the level of intelligence begins to fall. Any alcohol consumption is accompanied by the death of brain cells. The process of addiction to alcohol goes unnoticed, but with regular use of alcohol, without noticing it, a person begins to degrade as a person and loses interest in life, becomes dependent on alcoholic beverages. I would like to mention that there is no harmless dosage of alcohol.

In people who drink, especially those who abuse alcohol, cardiovascular diseases of various types are observed about two and a half times more often than in those who do not drink alcohol. The first place in prevalence belongs to alcoholic cardiomyopathy, which is characterized by frequent pain in the heart and rapid heartbeat - tachycardia. Also, the symptoms of this disease are increased fatigue of a person, reduced ability to work. All manifestations of the disease have the character of a gradual increase. The heart muscle, very flabby, having lost its former elasticity, ceases to fully cope with increased loads - after all, most of it consists not of the heart muscle, but of connective tissue, which is not workable. Shortness of breath can be caused by light running, brisk walking, and even slow climbing stairs. Further - even worse. Shortness of breath already appears with calm walking, and then even with a state of absolute rest. And so, as if on the sly, the development of heart failure occurs, cardiac arrhythmia begins, or, for example, such terrible things as atrial fibrillation and flutter, impaired conduction of impulses that cause contraction of the heart muscle.

Also, on the basis of work with many patients suffering from diseases of the cardiovascular system, it was also proved that in persons who abuse alcoholic beverages, the course of the disease is much more acute than in those who do not drink alcohol. First of all, this concerns IHD (Ischemic Heart Disease). And myocardial infarctions in people who abuse alcoholic beverages are much more extensive and deep. Yes, and hypertension has an affinity with the use of alcoholic beverages.

The famous doctor from Germany, Kraepelin, recorded his research at the beginning of the twentieth century. In particular, one curious fact was indicated in these records.

The entry said that alcohol is not so terrible, since more than half of the world's population are women, and they are practically not involved in alcohol. But if alcoholism takes root among women, then the new generation simply will not be healthy, or even completely destroyed. Here is such a prophecy.

Dr. Kraepelin was no doubt right. Alcohol, as studies have shown, has a very detrimental effect on germ cells, does not allow them to develop systematically, and makes them not viable. And alcohol also makes other irreparable changes in the reproductive system. It is because of these changes that drinking women often permanently lose the opportunity to become mothers, and men - fathers. Let's not forget for a moment that intemperance to alcoholic beverages often turns into its shadow side, but not immediately, but after many years, when children are already preparing to become fathers and mothers. And here it turns out that it is not given to them to become parents themselves. And the vice of the parents put a barrier, and now a young man, wanting to become a father, cannot, like a girl, will not become a mother. Scientists are increasingly writing about this “repeated effect” and about how dangerous it is.

Many girls, in response to all sorts of warnings, say in their defense: “Yes, my friend drank and led an unhealthy lifestyle, but now, she became pregnant and is expecting a child.” Yes, a drinking woman can get pregnant, of course. But only in such a situation, the pregnancy scenario is not necessarily simple and smooth. Often drinking mothers observe toxicosis, infections, and other complications. Childbirth can begin earlier than the term, which is highly undesirable.

In general, if we talk about two such concepts as alcohol and offspring, then the answer immediately comes to mind - “Absolutely incompatible!”. And it would be better if everyone who wants to have healthy, full-fledged normal children remember this. Unless, of course, there is a desire for a strong, healthy, talented and beautiful successor of the family to appear in the family. We must not forget that, in the very first place, the health of a son or daughter depends on how healthy the lifestyle of the parents, both father and mother, is.

The human liver, as it is known, plays an important role in the regulation of the anticoagulant and coagulation systems of the blood. In people who drink alcohol, the lack of this balance is expressed in different ways. In some, blood clotting comes to naught and, at the slightest injury, they experience severe bleeding that is not easy to stop. For others, clotting becomes so strong that blood clots form in their blood vessels, which can lead to blockage of blood vessels.

Research. Conducted over the past decade make it possible to identify the relationship between systematic drinking of alcohol, even not heavy, and the level of liver damage after these drinks. According to numerous empirical data: the development of fatty liver in the body with regular use of alcohol develops on average in a period of five to ten years, depending on how much the patient abused alcohol. And after fifteen to twenty years, there is an active development of cirrhosis of the liver. Is this data worth considering? Of course!

Harm of smoking on the human body:

Smoking is injurious to health

About five million people die each year from smoking-related diseases worldwide. Only in Russia, nicotine takes a thousand lives every day.

    Smoking clogs arteries and causes heart attacks and strokes. The heart rate of a smoker is 15,000 beats per day more than that of a non-smoker, and the delivery of oxygen to the tissues is significantly reduced, since the vessels are constricted.

    Smoking is the main risk factor for respiratory diseases: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (chronic bronchitis and emphysema), pneumonia.

    Tobacco and tobacco smoke contain more than 3,000 chemical compounds, more than 60 of which are carcinogenic, that is, capable of damaging the genetic material of the cell and causing the growth of a cancerous tumor. It has long been proven that tobacco is the cause of death from lung cancer in 90% of all cases.

    Under the influence of smoking, visual acuity also decreases. Scientists have been talking about the dangers of smoking for the eyes for many years, but only modern studies have been able to confirm the bitter truth for smokers: the substances contained in a cigarette are really dangerous for vision, because of them the blood supply to the choroid and retina is disturbed. Every smoker, and especially those who have a long smoking history behind them, is at any time threatened by the formation of blockage of blood vessels, and this can completely lose their sight.

    There are diseases caused mainly by smoking alone. This is obliterating endarteritis (disease of the vessels of the legs). Vasoconstriction occurs and blood flow to tissues and cells is severely disrupted. The most terrible consequence of this disease is the amputation of the limb(s). According to Russian doctors, every year about 20,000 leg amputations are performed in our country due to obliterating endarteritis.

    Clinical trials conducted in recent years have proven that the skin of a smoker ages faster than a non-smoker. For example, it has been shown that the skin of a forty-year-old woman who smokes for many years can be as destroyed as the skin of a seventy-year-old non-smoker. Doctors call the appearance of such changes in human skin the "tobacco" face syndrome.

    Men who smoke are 3 times more likely to experience impotence than non-smokers. Similarly, women who smoke suffer from frigidity 2.5 times more often than non-smokers. This is due to the fact that nicotine contributes to the narrowing of the vessels of the genital organs.

    Smoking harms not only the physical but also the psychological health of a person. Smokers are more nervously exhausted than others. They loosen their nervous system, living from cigarette to cigarette, and are ready to flare up not only for an insignificant, but for an insignificant reason. Due to a violation of the correct course of nervous processesa person becomes irritable, quarrelsome, he develops, as they say, "a difficult character"

    Harm of drugs

    It's no secret that drugs are poison. Regardless of the amount taken, they cause irreparable damage to our health. Drugs, due to their effect on the psyche, most often a state of euphoria, vivacity, a feeling of increased emotional and physical tone, have become widespread throughout the world. According to statistics from different countries, the total number of people who use illicit drugs is more than 20% of the total population of the planet. A sharp increase in the popularity of drugs occurred in the middle of the twentieth century, among supporters of the hippie movement, which was very popular at that time, which originated in the United States in the 60s of the last century, then millions of people across America began to use marijuana, later this fashion spread throughout Europe and Asia, and marijuana has been mistakenly labeled as a soft drug that is almost harmless.

    Hemp, cocaine, LSD, heroin, ecstasy, methadone are the most famous and popular, although in fact there are many types of drugs, they destroy almost all organs and systems of the body, the brain, liver, kidneys, heart, reproductive organs suffer the most. The average life expectancy of a drug addict, with constant intravenous drug use, is approximately 6-8 years, then most often the liver (liver cirrhosis is very common in heroin addicts) or the heart can not stand it.

    Much depends on at what age, in what doses, with what frequency and what type of drugs are used. It is not uncommon for people to die from drug accidents, commit suicide, or die from an overdose, and most often the goal in the life of an addict is to get a dose.
    The most common reason why people start using drugs is a thirst for new sensations, a desire to escape from a boring gray life, forget about problems, relieve stress, but when the "high" passes, a state of depression, apathy, and hopelessness often appears. The desire to use drugs again, with each new dose, becomes stronger, drug-addicted people develop withdrawal symptoms (Withdrawal Syndrome), and the more often a person uses drugs, the faster and more acutely it manifests itself.

When the action of the next dose ends, the body requires more, the addicted person does not leave the thought of where to get another dose of the drug, nervous tremors, cold sweats, convulsions appear, limbs go numb, diarrhea, nausea, pain in the joints and muscles, headaches, dizziness often appear. , insomnia, the person becomes emotionally unstable, irritable, becomes easily enraged, becomes prone to violence, and this is not a complete list of all the symptoms that a drug addicted person may experience during withdrawal.

The addicts themselves describe the state of withdrawal as pain piercing the muscles, twisting the joints, twisting the insides and melting the brain ....

The state of withdrawal can last for a rather long period, from several days to 2-3 months, depending on the type of drug, the susceptibility of the body, and the stage of neglect of drug addiction. Often, psychoses occur in drug addicts, most often after a long break, consciousness is clouded, hallucinations, memory lapses often occur, many suicides occur in a state of psychosis caused by drugs, most often under the influence of unreasonable fear, sometimes a spontaneous desire to die. Some drugs cause the effect of self-hypnosis, a person convinces himself that everything that happens in his head happens in real life, in this case, any unpleasant thought can become a reason for suicide, or violence against other people.

The increase in the number of people who use drugs cannot but affect the next generations, people who use drugs very often give birth to unhealthy children, with serious physical defects, chronic diseases, serious pathologies, the number of miscarriages reaches 50%. Very often parents of drug addicts abandon their children, or they are deprived of the right to raise them.

Of particular concern is the fact that the age of people who use drugs is getting lower, according to statistical surveys in Russia, almost 40% of schoolchildren aged 12-13 have tried certain drugs in their lives (including tobacco and alcohol), in Europe almost 30 % of people aged 15 years have tried illicit drugs. In many cases, indulgence in soft drugs later develops into a more serious addiction to drugs that are much stronger and more dangerous.

Now all over the world drugs are considered illegal, every year hundreds of tons of drugs are confiscated by law enforcement agencies around the world, kilometers of hemp fields are burned, hundreds of drug dealers are arrested, drug rehabilitation centers are being created, but despite all this, the number of drugs is growing every day, as well as the number of people who want to use them. The main mistake of such people is that they believe that drugs will bring them happiness, make their life more fun and eventful, but they soon realize that they were wrong, and not everyone has the strength to return to normal life ....life without drugs.
