DRUGS
Make a smart choice say NO!
Heroin The addictive drug.
Heroin as said is very addictive. In recent years the there has been a shift, from injecting heroin to smoking and snorting it. The reason, people say it is in pure form and that these forms will not lead to the addiction.
Nicotine or Heroin?
They both are same, tolerance to heroin develops with regular use just like nicotine in tobacco. It takes more heroin to produce the same level of intensity.

Marijuana the addiction.
Contrary to common belief, marijuana is addictive. Estimates from research suggest that about 9 percent of users become addicted to marijuana; this number increases among those who start young (to about 17 percent, or 1 in 6) and among daily users (to 25-50 percent). Thus, many of the nearly 7 percent of high-school seniors who (according to annual survey data) report smoking marijuana daily or almost daily are well on their way to addiction, if not already addicted (besides functioning at a sub-optimal level all of the time).
what is Cocaine and is it same as crack cocaine?
Cocaine is a drug extracted from the leaves of the South American coca plant. It is a strong stimulate that effects the body's central nervous system, which may lead to infections. Crack cocaine is a highly addictive and powerful stimulant that is derived from powdered cocaine. Crack is made by dissolving powdered cocaine in a mixture of water and ammonia and then it is boiled until it a solid substance is formed. it is then removed from liquid and then broken down into small rocks that are sold as crack cocaine. So my answer is no it is not the same.
Addiction
Cocaine is highly addictive, leaving users with an overwhelming craving for the drug. The addiction to crack develops quickly, sometimes after just a few times of smoking it. Those addicted to cocaine or crack can find help with behavioral treatments including both residential and outpatient approaches.
What is LSD?
LSD (or its full name: lysergic acid diethylamide) is a potent hallucinogen that dramatically alters your thoughts and your perception of reality. It was discovered in 1938 in a fungus that grows on rye and other grains. LSD has a high potential for abuse.
Effects.
By disturbing the normal functioning of the brain, LSD distorts visual judgment, sensations, moods and feelings. And these changes can quickly become frightening. Some users experience terrifying thoughts, feelings of despair, fear of losing control, fear of insanity or even death.

It doesn't matter what drug you choose, but you instead of your money to drugs you are paying your life. Now it is up to you that do you want choose one of the most deadly way to die or live a healthy life with your family.
