Mortality Rates - By Drugs and Alcohol Use
“Drugs kill.” It’s a message children as young as five years old hear in classrooms on a regular basis, and in time, it might seem like simple background noise that means nothing at all. In fact, as these children grow up into adults who make their own decisions about drugs and alcohol, they may come to believe that the substances aren’t really dangerous at all.
In reality, however, drugs are every bit as dangerous as the sayings of our teachers and parents would have us believe. Statistics don’t lie, and when it comes to substance abuse and addiction, the figures that are available can be shockingly sad.
