PHSE session on Drug & Alcohol with Year 8 - Kely Support Group

2/26/2016

0 Comments

 
In this session, we learnt that there are 3 types of drugs: stimulant (increasing speed of the nerves), depressant (decreasing speed of the nerves), and hallucinogen (creating scary hallucinations for the mind often). Cannabis (marijuana) is a depressant and a hallucinogen and is a very commonly used drug. There is also Ice and Ketamine, both used by people substantially in Hong Kong. All these drugs have terrible side effects and are used to give a high feeling. We also learnt that many young people start taking drugs because of peer pressure from friends. IMPORTANT MESSAGE: SAY NO TO DRUGS. No matter how tempting it is if you are in a party, hanging out with friends, or wherever, always say no and avoid the drug. Your friends will probably think low of you but you are making a brilliant choice by not taking the drug. They don’t know the bad consequences of drugs. We were also shown a video on a boy escaping a peer pressure situation with drugs being offered. 
 We also learnt that alcohol is consumed a lot and there are its consequences too. One standard drink can cause relaxation and happiness, but more than that within the same hour is harmful to the body. After 16 standard drinks within one hour, you will probably die. ​ Bharat Namboodiri, Year 8
