There are no harmless drugs: Satbayev University conducts explanatory work
Drugs are one of the most serious threats to the modern world. Narcotic substances are unpredictable, they negatively affect the brain and psyche, causing spiritual degradation, as well as complete physical exhaustion of the body.
Many students mistakenly believe that there are harmless drugs that will not harm their health and academic success. However, this is a dangerous misconception, far from the truth.
There are no harmless and safe drugs: any of the drugs belongs to the category of poisons and from the very first minute they poison the body. Even the most "simple" drugs have a lethal dose of only a few grams. For example, the lethal dose of cocaine is only from 1.2 to 0.2 grams. The lethal dose of heavier and synthetic drugs is hundreds of times less.
The average life span of a person taking psychoactive substances is 25 years. 97% of drug addicts die in three to four years of use.
Even marijuana within two months after starting smoking causes a lot of negative changes in the body, especially in the nervous system. These are diarrhea, vomiting, nightmares, confusion, forgetfulness, drowsiness, panic attacks, anxiety, paranoia and depression. The first symptom is problems with memory, concentration and coordination of movements.
And longer-term use of marijuana can have more serious health consequences, such as schizophrenia, damage to the lungs and respiratory system, lung cancer.
Among other problems, narcotic substances are a source of crime and violence, as many people suffering from addiction are forced to commit crimes to ensure their dose.
It should be noted that currently Article 296 of Criminal Code "Illegal handling of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, their analogues without the purpose of sale" provides for punishment from a fine of 80 MCI (276 thousand tenge in 2023) to imprisonment for 7 years.
For students, drugs are especially destructive and dangerous, since at this time the brain is in the stage of active development, and drugs destroy the brain in the first place. A person loses the ability to make the right decisions and can no longer solve their problems.
Satbayev University is a prestigious university that gives its students every opportunity. Studying here opens the door for you to an excellent career, entrepreneurship and creativity. Graduates of our university with little effort get everything they want.
Drug use is a path of self-destruction, which negates all advantages, closes the path to dreams and goals. This is a trap that those who are looking for easy ways and short-term pleasure fall into. So can you risk your future, health and opportunities that your education provides you?
It is crucial to understand that there are no harmless drugs. Narcotic substances also act as a popular method of killing in Middle Ages - slowly poisoning a person until they die. And drug addiction is a serious obstacle to achieving the professional goals and dreams.
For information: for getting rid of drug addiction, clinics ask about a thousand dollars for each day.
In modern society, each of us faces many opportunities. However, one of the most dangerous and destructive is drug use.
There is not a single life situation, regardless of its complexity, in which the consumption of narcotic substances can help – it will not solve the problem, it will not help to find a way out. It is much easier and more effective to go to a psychologist and discuss your problems with them.
Psychologists have special knowledge and skills, and can help negotiate with teachers, find a lass, understand how to talk to parents. They also help to cope with difficulties, restore self-esteem, cope with stress and start enjoying life on a daily basis!
It is important to understand that contacting a psychologist is not a sign of weakness or failure, but on the contrary, it is a bold step towards a full and healthy life. Most successful people, including billionaires, visit a psychologist for many years on a weekly basis.
Satbayev University has a free psychological service that can help.

Everyone should know this:
1. It is very difficult to give up drugs. Even one dose can cause a very strong addictive effect (addiction). The best way to save your life is to never try.
2. Drug addiction is a chronic disease, and it continues until the end of life. At the same time, the disease seems to be dormant and can resume at any moment. At the same time, it is impossible to cure the consequences: many psychological and physiological changes are not recoverable.
3. Drugs make it difficult to study, deprive you of the ability and desire to work, which means you cannot count on a good career in the future. First of all, short-term ("ram") memory suffers. It becomes difficult to think and express your thoughts correctly.
4. Drugs quickly replace communication, friendship, love, family for a person and lead to complete loneliness. Then they will face a hospital, prison, death.
5. Drugs are the cause of many diseases. Even one use of some drugs changes a person's genetic code. In humans, brain cells, liver, lungs, cardiovascular, nervous, and reproductive systems are destroyed, hepatitis, AIDS, and other deadly diseases are infected. Moreover, it does not depend on the type of drugs, nor on the way they are used. The final is always the same. It's only a matter of time.
6. There are no light drugs. The so-called "light drugs" and stimulants serve to remove the strong-willed barrier before using the rest. No one starts "shooting up" right away. According to statistics, more than 90% of "heroin" addicts started with marijuana, thinking that they would easily quit.
People who say the opposite are trying to justify themselves in any way and make you addicted to the drug. Don't let yourself be fooled! What kind of drug and how it gets into the body is not important? It's important what gets in. And then - self-deception, constant search for "buzz", addiction, illness, death.
