drug is a substance--other than food--that, when taken, has some effect on your body and/or your mood. Drugs affect everyone differently and the effects of many drugs can be unpredictable and catch people completely off guard. Many drugs, such as speed and heroin, can have very dangerous effects, even on the first try. It is far too easy to take too much of a drug, which can have seriously bad effects. Over consumption is always a bad idea. Be aware of the effects and risks of every drug and keep in mind that drugs are illegal.
