High as a Kite: The Effects of Drugs

Ever wondered why we reach for that next drink, pill, or puff-knowing the risk, craving the rush?
High as a Kite - The Effects of Drugs is JD Arden's unflinching, sharply witty guide through the strange logic of our own minds and the global culture of getting high. From the legal highs (coffee, cigarettes, alcohol) we barely question, to the forbidden substances lurking in the shadows, this book pulls no punches.

Cutting through the myths and the moralizing, JD Arden explores what really happens to our brains on drugs, why we crave altered states, and who ends up paying the real price-whether user, family, or society. With a blend of science, philosophy, and lived reality, this book is for anyone curious about the line between use, abuse, and addiction. No nonsense, no sugar-coating-just the raw truth, delivered with Arden's signature wit.
