Physical effects can vary
The way a drug affects you depends on:
Other effects
Mental health
Studies show that drug use increases your risk of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression and psychosis. People with mental health issues also have a higher rate of drug use problems.
Financial issues
Some drugs can be very expensive — the street price of illicit drugs depends on availability and demand. If you have become dependent on a drug, you could end up in financial trouble.
Relationships
Because drugs can change your behaviour, they can affect your relationships with family and friends. There is an increased risk of injury and/or assault to both yourself and other people.
Legal issues
Many drugs are illegal and you can be fined, or sent to prison, for having them. If convicted of a drug offence, you could end up with a criminal record — this can make it harder to get a job, apply for a loan, or travel overseas
