TB is a potentially serious infectious bacterial disease that mainly affects the lungs.

[ShineCOMM3724 @Comm3724Shine]

@TelekoComm3724 Research shows that even adults use Mandrax. I would give people who were once addicted to Mandrax or were affected an opportunity to tell their stories. I think most people believe real life stories compared to when you tell them about statistics.

@mokocomm3724 If you stop taking TB medication or skip doses, your TB could come back and your TB infection could turn into an active TB. With active TB, you will have symptoms and feel sick and you can pass it on to your friends and family.
So yes, it can weaken a person's immune system

[TelekoComm3724 @TelekoComm3724]

TB is one of the top 10 causes of death and the leading cause from a single infectious agent.

[TelekoComm3724 @TelekoComm3724]

@mokocomm3724 TB kills more than a million people worldwide and an estimated 26 000 people are infected each day.

@TelekoComm3724 The breakdown of the prevalence of substance abuse in our country is as follows:
Alcohol = 28.9%

@TelekoComm3724 Physical dangers of abusing substances include:
• Developing a tolerance to the drug.
• Withdrawal symptoms when trying to cut back or quit.
• Health problems, like irregular heart rate, high blood pressure, lung damage, and seizures.
• Injury, both accidental and self.

Research has shown that people infected with TB are more likely to develop mental and psychological problems than people not infected with the disease. Depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are the most common stress-related conditions of TB patients.

[TelekoComm3724 @TelekoComm3724]

This is so true, we shouldn't give up on ourselves.

[Samukelisiwe Dlamini @DlaminiComm3724]

Waking up is not just about another day of existing. It's a chance to make your life better and fight what you thought defeated you yesterday. Truly speaking, you're never defeated unless you don't fight. Don't give up on yourself, not today.😊

@mfekacomm3274 -Would someone get addicted from using drugs recreationally?
-How would one know if they are starting to get addicted to drugs?

[TelekoComm3724 @TelekoComm3724]

@Comm3724Shine -Is Mandrax only used by the youth?
-How would you try and educate the youth about Mandrax?

[TelekoComm3724 @TelekoComm3724]

Obesity has been around for a century and it basically involves an excess amount of body fat.

Obesity can cause other health problems like heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.

About half of the South African population is either overweight or obese.

[Reflection Mondays @KhobokoComm3724]

Alcohol abuse doesn’t always seem like abuse in the beginning, as a lot of people consume alcohol for many different reasons. It does, however, start negatively affecting you and those around you if you lose control of how much of it you consume regularly.

Depression is an extremely complex disease. No one knows exactly what causes it, but it can occur for a variety of reasons. Some people experience depression during a serious medical illness. Others may have depression with life changes such as a move or the death of a loved one.
