Htet Htet Nandar

Life is a gift created by God for us to do many precious things in our lifetime. Lives may vary
individually according to various types of living and circumstances. People from upper class layer
can stay conveniently in their lives but those from lower class have to struggle for their livelihoods.
Nonetheless, how hard people’s lives are, we should do one precious thing in our lives and that’s
why life will be meaningful. The lifetime of a normal person is very short. Most people may think
the life of high-school students or being a youth is simple and innocent. Actually, high-school is
full of competitions in appearance, status, properties, education and also relationships. High-school
is a very important place for every person in fact it has been a place for gaining intellectuals and
personal development. At the same time, it could be a terrified place which can spoil youths
indirectly. The weaker person can feel depressed and discontented with his life and is sometimes
likely to touch with bully. This is also a problem which teachers can never solve. It is not strange
such kind of youths using drugs in such kind of situation. Drug, a very dangerous thing, is not
tough but gentle, smooth and able to fascinate. But it can bring all of the calamities like war. It has
been told the beginning of drug is cigarette. That’s absolutely right. At first, drinking cigarette is
not a serious matter but later the youths may drink cigarette containing heroin. Only cigarette can
danger for health and also bring respiratory diseases. The reasons why young people take drugs
can differ individuals. Some may use drug to fit in to be accepted by their drug user friends. Some
try it to get pleasure. And those who suffer from depression, anxiety, stress and physical pain may
use drugs to get relief. Some go for to be better in academics or sports. But for some, only to try
new experiences becomes an enough reason. Soon after they started using drugs, they become
deeply addicting and until they don’t have the sense how greatly concerned with terrifying thing.
Drugs are easy to use but very difficult to cut off. But different types of lifestyles, circumstance of
situations and a lot of pressures from their parents and teachers could be reasons for them to use
drugs. There could be many issues because of using drugs, for instance, changing friends a lot,
spending a lot of time alone, not taking care of themselves like not taking showers and changing
clothes, being really tired and sad, being very energetic, saying things that don’t make sense,
having problems at school like missing classes and getting bad grades, having problems in personal
or family relationships, lying and stealing, memory lapses, poor concentration and lack of
coordination, etc. It can even cause loss of lives, futures, dreams and hobbies. Luckily, however,
drug can be cut off before dying with the help of medical care. There will be criminals around the
country because of drug users. Youths who use drugs are more likely to engage in violent behavior,
steal, abuse and join gangs. If drugs are overwhelming, your life, your family and your
environment cannot be safe. There are still many poppy lands in ungoverned regions of Myanmar.
The people from that regions are still doing cultivates opium poppy for their careers. As long as
cultivation continues, drug traffickers and drug dealers will surly exist. To solve these problems,
United Nations actively helps in controlling drug management locally from the year 1995. Drug
problem could not be solved by a single country and its community alone. It is a problem that have
to be solved by human beings from all over the world cooperatively. The issue of drug is a big
challenge for every country. Youths are future of our world so they shouldn’t be destroyed before
reaching their destinations. The whole community must stick together and fight back to protect
our futures. As winning the drug is saving many lives, the whole youths should welcome and fight
back gladsomely.
