Top Recreational Drugs And Risks Involved

One of the most popular recreational drugs available is marijuana or weed

. With THC as the main active ingredient, the effects vary from person to person, though it tends to cause a relaxed mellow feeling. In recent years marijuana has been legalized in some states for medicinal use only, though many think it is only a matter of time until it is made legal for recreational purposes. Although it is considered a recreational drug, it is perhaps one of the least dangerous ones, with minimal long-term adverse health effects and non-addictive nature.

Huffing chemical solvents is another popular recreational drug, and it comes with many adverse health effects. Since becoming popular in the late seventies, this drug of choice is commonly seen in adolescents. People have been known to huff anything from nail varnish to lighter fuel and even aerosols. Because they are so available and easy to get, they are commonly done by people in poor third world countries such as Morocco. Snorting glue is another common practice among teens who do not have access to any other recreational drugs. The health risks associated to huffing solvents has been well-documented and is widely known.

Cocaine is another drug used and has serious effects on the body. Though people think initially it will give them energy, the negative effects appear and interfere with both one's life and financial state.

There are of psychedelic drugs out there such as hallucinogenic mushrooms or simply magic mushrooms which were made popular in the 60 and 70s. Their origins can be traced back to countries such as Mexico, where tribal societies regularly used them for spiritual purposes, seeing visions as the result of hallucinations. The effects experienced from taking these types of mushrooms resemble those of LSD. Although they are illegal in the U.S, a possession of them is legal in the U.K, though preparing or drying them out is not.

LCD is another hallucinogenic drug which is used by many young people all over the world. Side-effects from the drug begin to manifest within an hour or two of taking it. A person who takes LCD usually experiences enhancement of sounds and visual awareness becomes significantly heightened. Depending on the person and which type of environment they are in, there can be strange, sometimes frightening hallucinations as the result of taking it. Some other side-effects include confusion, panic, and paranoia. The long-term effects of using LCD as a recreational drug are still being studied; however it is widely regarded as a dangerous drug because of its hallucinogenic nature. Recreational drugs are constantly being debated in terms of legality, however marijuana is the front-runner for recreational drugs that could become legal and officially taxed by the government.
