Comparative Essay

While cheerio and I were talking… in the middle of the night.  I came to a realization that relationships are just like drugs… 

Dramatized Comparative Essay (Mind you this is for fun and the actual format and diction might fail):

In modern society, having intimate relationships are common.  In some cases, they can start as young as a a person’s pre-teen stage in life.  Usually, these early relationships do not last, but as time goes by and as relationships past, people find the most agreeable person for them.  Similarly, drugs also have the same characteristics.  Experimenting with drugs can start just as young and there are different types you try until you stick with them.  Both relationships and drugs create, psychological effects, resulting in, physical change, and finally, when you decide to quit, the recession from them are incredibly hard.

Firstly, when people experience relationships and drugs.  There is a lot of psychological changes that occur.  When one is in a relationship, it is easy to accumulate stress from the relationship.  Different problems can occur resulting in stress.    Similarly, drugs can cause stress.  Problems that can occur could be a fear of getting caught taking drugs and being in a relationship, especially in the earlier stages of your relationship.  In addition, both drugs and relationships cause a lack of concentration.  Even when you are not “on them” the lack of them occupies your mind causing you to be unable to concentrate on your surroundings.  There are many other psychological problems that can occur due to drugs and relationships.

Secondly, there are many physical changes that can occur through the engagement of both drugs and relationships.  When one uses drugs, their are changes in their physical health and appearance.  At the same time, when one is in a relationship, the pressure to change your appearance also appears.  Another effect would be the change in mood during the use.  When one is around both, they automatically go into a better mood, or in rare cases, a worst mood.  Being engaged in a relationship causes your personality to change, more specifically, some females begin to become more feminine whereas, males also become more masculine.  Drugs also cause personality changes, they can be more happy or more mean.  Physical change is very apparent in the use of both.

Finally, the recession from both can cause great physical and psychological strain.  Relationships are addictive as well as drugs.  Without them, you feel incomplete and yearn for them.  The first withdrawal is when the change is most evident.  Their moods change greatly to great depression and on rare occasions it can cause death.  The withdrawal is commonly very hard to face and sometimes psychological help is needed.  The withdrawal period is similarly counted, drugs being of “clean” status and relationships being of “single”status.  Overall, many people want to avoid the lost of both.

Drugs and relationships are very similar, and commonly referred to one another.  They are sometimes very problematic however, by nature why we are drawn to them?  The loss of them are more critical however, some people find are able to find a life long relationship that fills them with content until death.

I’m sorry my conclusion sucked.  I was getting tired and running out of ideas.

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed my essay ;D
