Section
1
The
opening section deals with the question what is
a drug, plus the differences between physical
addiction and mental addiction. It demonstrates
the effect that stimulants have on the body’s
metabolism using easy to understand examples.
Section
2
This
section looks at the three stages of a drug’s
effect on the body. The gradually developed need
for increased quantities of alcohol and drugs
is also looked at. Finally, the unpredictability
of the body in its reaction to drugs is explained.
Section
3
People
think they’re ‘being different’
when they take a drug, in actual fact it’s
the opposite. This section looks at the effect
of different drugs on people’s personalities
and how a drug-taker starts to lose much of his
individual character.
Section
4
For most
attendees this section is a real eye opener. Narconon
Drug Education's research has proved conclusively
that residues of drugs remain in the fatty tissues
and can stay there indefinitely, affecting a person
for years afterwards.
Section
5
In section
five the mental effects of drug and alcohol use
are demonstrated. Blank periods occur during substance
abuse which effect the mind’s ability to
think in sequence and also effect its memory and
analytical powers.
Section
6
Why
do people take drugs in the first place? This
question is answered in this section. The factor
of diminished responsibility is also looked at
as well as the dwindling spiral of drug taking.
Finally the presentation ends on a positive note
and looks at the real ‘highs’ to be
attained when one achieves one’s goals in
life.
