A bit about drugs
Drugs are the reason you are on this site but do you really know what they are doing to you?
Drug users tend to be experts when it comes to chemical substances. You probably already know the ins and outs of your drug of choice but it's always a good idea to have as much information as you can.
On the other side, if you are concerned about someone's drug use, the scary part can be not knowing what your loved one is taking. Have a look through this section and if you have any questions contact the Alcohol Drug Helpline who can talk to you about your concerns.
Some drug users have a particular type of drug they enjoy over all other types; this is what they call 'drug of choice'. You might not have a preference – anything and everything could be your motto.
