      Hi @aimeewalton1
      Thanks very much for this question.
      I decided to research it for a number of reasons. I was really interested in people, and why we do what we do, which is why I studied psychology.
      Drugs in particular were interesting to me because I think that the public perception of them is very confused, as the media tend to sensationalise stories about drugs. Because of this it’s hard for people to hear the truth, so I wanted to find out what the truth is about drugs for myself.

      Do you think this was a good idea? 🙂
