So
What exactly did they explain? Because current (and previous) drug education is woefully inaccurate/incomplete.

Think they were called Galahad
One was an ex user, then dealer, then informer. Rather than the usual bollocks secondary schools get, they told us how the drugs work-as in, what they do to which dells in the brain, and what damage they cause. It's all to do with synapses, and various chemicals that occur in the brain. For example, the brain releases dopamine after excercise/shock/sex etc, which calms you down. If you go for a massive run, you might feel completely immobile after. It is the dopamine receptors that the THC in cannabis acts on, to give similar feelings. Problem is, it damages them, so the dopamine doesn't work. If you damage enough of them, the body is unable to calm itself down-hence paranoia etc. similar things happen with Coke/adrenaline, ecstacy/seratonin and others I can't remember. So yeah, they do fuck your brain (and other bits) considerably.

Was it the Two Circles?
You draw two circles - one large, one small. The large circle represents your brain now, the small one is your brain on drugs. Got that?

Then - drugs are illegal. The same two circles also represent - small, your arsehole now. Large, your arsehole in prison.

SEE what damage drugs can do!

No
That's the usual secondary approach. Though you misssed out the "we're not trying to stop you experimenting, just giving the facts", and the dreadful attempts at being cool...no wonder everyone under the age of 20 is off their tits.
