Do you pay any attention in class, or just spend time txting ur friends? Also, that worksheet is trash if they’re giving clues like the number of letters. Ick. But, here we are:

1) Hallucinogen
2) I’m actually not sure, the question is very poorly worded. “Synthetic Drugs” or similar is what I would say, or synthetic analogues, but it doesn’t fit the letter count.
3) Again, there’s a dozen answers to that question; substance abuse, drug abuse, etc. but none that I can think of that fit the crossword-puzzle BS.
4) Narcotics. Is this really a crossword puzzle? If so, I strongly suspect the ones you did answer are wrong.
5) Come on, kid, pay attention. I would suspect you’ve been using these drugs in class, but then you would probably know more about them. Stimulants are drugs that increase the heart rate, they generally dilate the pupils, raise blood-pressure, cause a decrease in salivation, provide a feeling of more energy. Caffeine, cocaine, amphetamine, methamphetamine are all stimulants. Depressants are essentially the opposite. Narcotics are drugs like painkillers (hydrocodone, oxycontin, morphine, codeine, heroin, opium…). Hallucinogenic drugs alter your perception of reality and may cause you to see or hear things which are not there.

If this is for a DARE class or whatever they teach kids these days, take it all with a grain of salt. These folks have an agenda, and not all of their information is correct.
