Top 5 Reasons Why Students Use Drugs?
  • Stress
  • Teens report the number-one reason for
    using drugs is to deal with the pressures and
    stress of school.
  • Social Acceptance and/or Low Self-Esteem
  • Teens say they use drugs to feel
    cool. Teens self-worth depends on the approval
    of others, and their desire for social acceptance
    can drive them to engage in destructive
    behaviors, even if they know it could harm them.
    Teens use drugs to feel better about
    themselves. Teens who have low self-esteem are
    more likely to seek acceptance from the wrong
    crowd by using drugs.
  • Self-Medication
  • The teen years are rough, and many
    teens who are unhappy dont know how to find a
    healthy outlet for their frustration. These pent
    up emotions can take an emotional toll and can
    even lead to depression or anxiety.
  • Misinformation
  • Teens dont perceive any major risk
    with trying drugs once or twice? While abuse of
    serious drugs is steadily declining among teens,
    their intentional abuse of prescription and
    over-the-counter medications remains a serious
    concern. Many teens, mistakenly believe that its
    safer to abuse a prescription drug than it is to
    use illegal drugs.
  • Easy Access
  • One reason teens use drugs is simply
    because theyre easy to get. Teens say that
    prescription drugs are easier to get than illegal
    drugs.
