Student’s Name Instructor’s Name Course Number Date How Marijuana almost ruined my life I am writing this open letter to shed more light on Marijuana smoking and how it almost destroyed my life and social relationship.

My classmates were senior to me. Therefore, I believed in everything that they told me. I had all the time and money and getting the drug was very easy for me. During such time, I was told that marijuana is used for recreational purposes. I was informed that when a person smokes, the thinking process improves which leads to improvement of performance in class. I then began to use marijuana and of course experience positive results (by the way, I no longer use). During such times, it appears as if I was concentrating in class, winning more friends, making love
