It is easy to become addicted to illegal drugs. Marijuana, heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and crack are all illegal drugs that people often become addicted to. Even some prescription drugs are addictive. Just don't start taking drugs because it is really hard to break the habit. Once the drug is in your system, your body gets so used to it that you might need that drug to function properly. We made reports for major illegal drugs and we interviewed a high school student from our city that has had drug problems.
