Substance Abuse


Pop a Molly, I’m sweating! (Whoo!) This is part of a song called “All Gold Everything,” sung by the rapper Trinidad James.  But what exactly is a Molly you may ask? According to Snopes.com, “Molly is a dangerous recreational drug made from cocaine, crack, ecstasy, meth and bath salt.” The drug “Molly” has become very popular among teenagers.  Some of the side effects include confusion, depression, sleep problems, drug craving and anxiety lasting for days or even weeks, according to the National Institute of Drug Abuse.  Every one, especially woman, should be careful and avoid using this drug since the long-term side effects are unknown.  If you find yourself at a party or club you should never lose sight of your drink or fall for the cute guy asking you to try the drug.  Woman can become vulnerable to sexual abuse when under the influence of drugs and alcohol.  But you can always say no and avoid the risk of being raped.
