DRUG ADDICTION AND ITS EFFECTS • Lost livelihoods • Drug addiction can affect you in many ways. One of those ways is that you lose your livelihood as you are not able to work and earn a living like the other good members of society. This is because an addict is not able to gain composure for the work that he is going to do and thus, will not be productive. Also, most of the time, the addict is looking for ways of getting the drugs and thus, they have no time to work. This can have a big impact on family especially, considering that some of the addicts happen to be the breadwinners. • Broken relationships • Another bad effect of addiction is that it is very hard for an addict to keep a stable relationship. This is because they have all lost control and that they are wondering about ways of beating the addictions. The good thing is that, if these people got back to a healthy lifestyle, they could end up living healthily. In addition, people who are addicted to drugs find it very hard to keep their families stable. This is because they are not able to commit themselves in the relationships and thus, they end up breaking down relations with their loved ones. It is out of drug abuse that many families have broken up.
