There are many reasons why people use drugs:
To avoid feeling bored -
some may think that drug taking is daring and exciting.
Peer pressure, to join in with others and belong to a ‘special’ group.
To feel more self confident. As an escape from problems at home and school, or as an escape from outside pressures. To relax and ‘feel good’
