So we were doing research and I found quite interesting, and startling statistics on drugs. Some of them where: * There is 281, 145 problem drug users in England and Wales, *41% of 11-15 year olds have been offered one or more drugs, *25 to 35 tonnes of Heroin is shipped to the UK every year, *Half of all crimes is drug related. I found it really interesting. Before, I didn't think of drugs has being as serious as it really is. Of course, I am shy and sheltered to drugs, meaning that where I am/live, not a lot of drug-related things happen. So I was shocked to find something like that. But I was wondering, Has anyone here taken drugs? If so, what age where you, and do you still take that particular substance/drug? -R'
