Why do drugs have such negative SIDE EFFECTS? Your body produces natural chemicals
called neurotransmitters These chemicals are vital to the
development of your brain and your nervous system
Drugs seriously disrupt your body’s ability to produce and regulate these chemical neurotransmitters

How does your BRAIN work? Some of the
neurotransmitters your brain produces and regulates are GABA, Anandamide, Acytelcholine, Dopamine and Serotonin.

GABA-Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid Among other things, GABA is
a neurotransmitter responsible for inhibiting or slowing down some neural processes
Alcohol increases the production and regulation of GABA
The effects are long lasting or permanent on the developing brain (kids and teens)

ACYTELCHOLINE Among other things,
Acytelcholine facilitates concentration, learning and memory
