Drug misuse may be dangerous for three main reasons. They are people can easily become addicted to the drug, the drug can cause physical and psychological harm, and drug abuse can have a negative impact on quality of life.
Two things are likely to determine the intensity of addictiveness of a drug. They are how enjoyable or delightful taking the drug is, and how rapidly the drug reaches or enters brain. Drugs that are smoked, injected or snorted (breathed through nose) can reach the brain very quickly and are generally more addictive than drugs that are swallowed. Depending on the effects, the order of addictiveness with the most addictive to least were Heroin, Cocaine, Tranquillisers, Amphetamines, Ketamine, Cannabis, Hallucinogens and Ecstasy.
People with heavy drug addiction, such as a heroin, cocaine, or crack addiction, often used to desperate, illegal, and dangerous activities to get money to pay purchase drugs. These activities include begging, burglary, shop-lifting, street crime, such as mugging (stealing) or bag snatching, and prostitution. This reduces quality of life.
Drug misuse has serious impact on health, can have a negative effect on quality of life and relationships with others. Many drug abusers recognize that they lose touch with their family and friends or that their family and friends lose interest in them due to their nonsensical behavior. Hobbies, interests, and ambitions are ignored as drugs become more essential. It will become more difficult to continue in job if a person suffers from drug problem.
