Say Hello to Addiction

In a world where an alarming number of people rely more on drugs than Sunday church for strength to carry on their complex lives, my blog will serve as a database that examines, stores and creates a basic awareness of the addiction to legal, prescribed drugs. Drug addiction is not all about rebellious teenagers and their desperation to scrounge up green bills for buying their daily fix of crack, it penetrates much deeper than that. “Drugs” not only includes doses of illegal substances that need to be smuggled into the country, concealed cleverly in drug paraphernalia and sold in dodgy neighbourhoods, by dodgy people at even dodgier prices, it also includes perfectly legal, over-the-counter medication prescribed by our very own trusted GP’s. And since it is in man’s nature to be tempted, what was first prescribed for assisting him in carrying on with his life slowly becomes his life. At this stage he has finally said 'Hello' to Addiction.
Thus, I hope that through my postings, I will be able to unmask this hidden endemic and help eradicate the very disease that society gave birth to. Please feel free to leave comments :-)
