I learned a lot of information about different types of drugs. Over 1 million people got arrested for doing drugs in 2009. Over 800,000 people where arrested in 2009 just for marijuana possession. Drugs are chemicals. They work in the brain by tapping into its communication system and interfering with they way nerve cells, normally send, receive, and process information. In fact, some drugs change the brain in ways that last longer after the person has stopped taking drugs, maybe even permanently.
The interesting facts I used from the website Drug Facts | NIDA for Teens was in 2012 over 700,00 people were arrested for using marijuana. In 2007 more than 14.4 million individuals in the US alone had smoked marijuana at least once during the previous month. The last interesting fact i used was some effects of marijuana are headaches, shakiness, sweating, stomach pains, and nausea as well as behavioral signs including restlessness, irritability, sleep difficulties and decreased appetite.
My rough sketches and ideas are here.
My finished PSA informs and educates the viewer by not doing drugs because they can kill you or they can severally damage your internal organs. Drug addiction can be effectively treated with behavioral-based therapies in which people learn to change their behavior; and, for addiction to some drugs, such as tobacco, alcohol, heroin, or other opiate drugs, medications can help. Treatment will vary for each person, depending on the type of drug(s) being abused and the individual's specific circumstances.
