With great praise and faith in the columns of your newspaper, my objective is to bring awareness to the drug abuse specifically affecting the gen z demographic. With a disturbing amount of teenage kids getting introduced to marijuana on a regular basis, through bad surroundings, dhaba culture and the glorification of drugs.
With anxiety, depression, and stress levels of Gen Z being at an all-time high, many are turning to substances like cannabis to cope.
It’s a problem that needs to be addressed as it’s gradually building up and corrupting our younger generation
Parents, schools, and communities must work together to raise awareness and create safe spaces for open discussions about addiction and mental health. Instead of judgment, young people need guidance, support, and positive outlets for their emotions.
It is our shared responsibility to ensure that the younger generation chooses a healthy path over self destruction.
