Drugs
There are many different types of drugs. Some are legal and some are illegal. All types of drugs can be dangerous if they are not taken safely.
Get support with drugs
While we do not advise anyone to take illegal drugs, it’s really important that you know as much as possible about them so that you can keep yourself, your friends, and your family safe.
Even legal drugs, like alcohol, will impact on physical and mental health if used to excess.
To find out more about the different types of drugs, visit the Talk to Frank website or the NHS Inform website.
