Drug use is growing, especially among young people aged 20-30, and often leads to addiction, anguish, health problems, and even death. The document describes a mother crying at her son's grave who died from a drug overdose, asking the reader to imagine being in her or her son's shoes. It notes that while death is one possible consequence of drug use, addiction and harm to the nervous system are also outcomes, and people often lie, steal, and use drugs to cope with social problems rather than address the underlying issues. The document concludes by asking why people still use drugs despite knowing these facts, and encourages the reader to help change the situation and prevent friends from falling into drug addiction.
