Description

With the popularity of Burning Man and other festivals where drug use is a known celebration, it's difficult to expect teens to see drugs as dangerous even though many drugs are. Debates continue today on the actual impact of hallucinogens on long-term health. Taking all this into account, this book doesn't preach. It uses real stories of teens that have used LSD and other hallucinogens to explain what can and does happen through drug use. Readers will learn the symptoms of addiction, including the physical, emotional, financial, and social damage that can arise from substance abuse. Alarming facts and statistics point out how prevalent hallucinogenic abuse is among teens, and how to steer clear of falling prey. Readers are given practical advice on how to decline offers. An entire chapter is dedicated to getting help.
