Abstract

Addiction to drugs is a complex issue with several social, cultural, biological, environmental,historical, and economic facets. Teenage hostility and drug use are closely associated. One of the primarycauses of teenage misbehaviour is social isolation. Aggressive behaviour toward others is a description ofdelinquent behaviour. A worrying issue is delinquent behaviour that is hostile against other people,including verbal abuse, bullying, and striking of siblings, friends, parents, teachers, or other individuals.Misusing drugs as a child can result in risky behaviours for oneself and others, including lying, theft,covert property destruction, and more. The main objective of current study is to research the mainfactors that lead to drug misuse among young offenders and to investigate their drug awareness.Manyothers shared their thoughts about stress, loneliness, the absence of affection and care from theirfamilies, and feeling like they had grown up, among other things.In light of this, it can be said thatmany people reported, among other things, feelings of tension, loneliness, a loss of parental love andcare, and having grown up. They acknowledged that their lack of physical activity was a result of theirdrug addiction. Due to their unruly behaviour, the majority of participants did not have time forrecreation. They understood the need of counselling for the process of recovery.
