2.In the past, most drugs were made from plants. Plants were grown and then converted into drugs such as coca paste, opium and marijuana. In the 20th century, people found out how to make drugs from chemicals. These are called synthetic drugs and include ecstasy, LSD, etc. These were initially produced for largely experimental reasons and only later were used for recreational purposes.

The majority of them are young, even very young, who do not understand what may happen to them because of drugs.
