Drug addiction has become a huge problem in Balochistan, especially for teenagers. Drug addiction is basically a brain disease that changes the functioning of the brain. Furthermore, the most disturbing fact about drug addiction is that people in different cities and villages of Balochistan are becoming addicted to all kinds of drugs. Street drugs and heroin are the worst types of drugs. Heroin is one of the dangerous drugs that affect the whole working of the heart. But now a day it is common among the youth of Balochistan.

            Besides this, the report estimate that 6 percent or 6.7 million people, aged 14-64 year in Balochistan use the drug. Although 4.25 million individuals are thought to be drug dependent. There is the various reason why youth and teenagers are addicted to the drug. Lack of self-confidence is considered one of the primary causes of drug addiction.

            There are many areas in Balochistan where a lot of youth people experience the pressure to use drugs, drink alcohol, and smoke. Likewise, the youth is having problems with unemployment which is the main reason for drug addiction. Drugs not only destroy the user but also ruin the family harmony.

            Crime in society also increases as a result of the drug. The Govt should provide employment to the youth of Balochistan and take action to stop the smuggling and save the youth of Balochistan.
