Answer:

is more like a pain pill it helps its more a street drug

Explanation:

Rohypnol, known as “roofies” and roaches,” is a sedative-hypnotic drug. Increasing dosages produces signs of progressive central

nervous system depression ranging from sedation to sleep. Chronic use of high doses leads to the development of tolerance, but a level

of intoxication can always be reached if the dose is high enough. Chronic use of large doses also leads to physical dependence and

withdrawal if usage is abruptly stopped. Withdrawal symptoms can be lessened to a certain extent if a drug from another class of

sedatives is substituted. When drugs from this class are taken together, one sees a far greater central nervous system depressant effect

than otherwise would be expected, especially with alcohol. This is called “synergism.” Overdose will cause mental clouding, loss of

muscular coordination, and eventually respiratory arrest.

The principal minor tranquilizers are the benzodiazepines, among which are diazepam (Valium), chlordiazepoxide (Librium), and alprazolam (Xanax). These drugs have a calming effect and eliminate both the physical and psychological effects of anxiety or fear.

Smoking can put smokers at risk for health problems but smokers are also subject to social consequences write a short letter to
vladimir2022 [97]


Dear (random name),
I have heard that you were smoking. In health class, I was taught why smoking cigarettes is very bad for you. It is harmful for you because it effects you socially and physically. Please read this, because I care about your health.

First of all, smoking is bad for your social life. When you smoke, you stench of cigarettes, and nobody likes the smell of ashes. You will most likely be surrounded by the bad people who peer pressured you into smoking, and they may lead you to doing even worse habits. Also, second hand smoke also hurts people’s lungs, and nobody wants to be around someone that might give them lung cancer. You won’t have lots of friends, and you’ll be around the wrong people.

Second of all, smoking is bad for you physically. You might get all sorts of diseases and cancers. Lung cancer, brain damage, and heart disease are just some of them. It will affect your body, so if you were trying to have children, your child would be seriously impacted by your bad habit. Also, if you smoke too much, you will age faster, getting yellow teeth and wrinkles. That is harmful to your body.

From the reasons I have listed, this shows why you should stop smoking. It takes a heavy toll on your social and physical health. If you get help now, you can kick the habit before it takes over your whole life. Be smart and make the right decision.

Sincerely,
(Your name)
