Say No to NARCOTICS
Let them know the dangers
Some experiences continue to haunt you even after a journey is long over.
Let me begin by telling you a little about Jordan Cole lunsford who was a very loud, happy and loving kiddo. He never met a stranger and was always loved by all that made him. Jordan begin struggling with mental illness at a young age. At the age of 14 years, Jordan was diagnosed with bipolar disorder ; though he had many obstacles he never gave up.
On 7th October 2014 Jordan's 3 month old baby sister Gracy Michelle passed away at daycare from SIDS. This of course send Jordan into complete devastation. On 13th November 2014, everything went crazy, Jordan's mom's phone begin vibrating non stop. Something happened to Jordan. A million thoughts ran through Jordan's mom's head when she came to know that Jordan overdosed on heroin. His mom went into the hospital room to find him hooked up to machines, lifeless, laying there. On November 15 2014 at 3:00 p.m. he was declared brain dead.
It was the first and last dose of heroin. All in the same breath Jordan's mom announced that she would be allowing Jordan's organs to be donated to save others lives.
Jordan was not a heroin addict he picked it up for the first time in a moment of depression after losing his sister and he died.
Through this true story I want to make people aware how heroine or any other drugs can kill a person, that kids don't even realize what they are doing. We have to educate people and truly let them know the dangers.

“
I chose the wrong path with drugs and alcohol and now that I am in recovery. I have to deal with the choices that I made while using every day for the rest of my life I destroyed my family, friends and my life. I have been in jail many times, I had thousands of dollars in fines, in penalties, rehab, car crashes and watched my friends die. If only I had chosen not to take the first drink or drug, my life would be totally different. My advice is not to let other people make choices for you. Life is so much better without drugs and alcohol.

A drug or other substance that affects mood or behavior and is consumed for non medical purposes specially one sold illegally.
The term narcotics is believed to have been coined by the Greek physician Galen. Which refers to the agent causing loss of feeling or paralysis.
There are many different types of narcotics. The two most common forms of narcotic drugs are morphine and codeine both are synthesized from opium for medical use.
The most commonly used drug for recreational purposes created from opium is heroine. Synthesized drugs created with an opium base for use in pain management are fentanyl, oxycodone tramadol, pethidine hydrocodone, methadone and hydromorphone.
New forms of existing pain medications are being created regularly. Opiate use for pain is widely accepted in the healthcare system. Chronic opioid use can lead to tolerance; this often causes the patient to need higher and more frequent doses of the drug to get the desired effects.
Drugs can be categorized by the way in which they affect our bodies .
Depressant :- the process slows down the functioning of the central nervous system. Small doses of the present feel you relax come where large doses cause vomiting, nausea ,sleepiness.
Hallucinogens :- Affect your senses and change the way you see or you may have unusual thoughts or feelings. Small doses can cause feeling of floating, numbness, confusion; whereas larger doses may cause memory loss, anxiety and increased heart rate and aggression.
Stimulants :- These drugs stimulate your central nervous system functioning.
These drugs are often used by young people in an attempt to enhance a party. That's why these drugs are also known as party drugs; however dosen of Australians become seriously ill or die after using party drugs each year.
