Okay so, my friend does hooka. I know it's a drug, but it's legal if you are 19 or something...right? Well, she is 15 and her and some of her other friends went to the hooka bar. [never been there in my life cuz i'm not that kinda girl] She told me she wasn't gonna do it again, just a one time thing because she was curious...well, turns out she's doing it again next Saturday. And she was trying to entice me to do it, saying stuff like, "It was sooo relaxing, and it made you kinda dizzy. But then you went to the dancefloor and partied and everything, it was great!" and "you should try it, it would be cool of you." and I was just like..."nahh, I'm good." The I asked her if she was hooked on it, and she was like no...you can't get hooked on hooka. Is that true? [not that I am going to try it..ever.]
But now...you ahve to understand this, she has never been a druggie in her life! And she is now doing hooka, and she just told me that tomorrow she is trying weed. Like wtf, she is turning into a druggie, and I'm friends with some, so it's not like I'm against all of them, but why ruin your life? and why is she trying to get me to do all these drugs when I tell her NO?! I don't know why I'm mad at her, I feel betrayed, she said she wouldn't do that stuff, but next thing you know shes going to hooka bars and smoking weed. I need advice, I need SOMETHING, ANYTHING! comments or whatever would be great. thanks in super advance. (link)

Hookah is not a drug. Hookah is just flavored tobacco. Yes, someone can get "addicted" to hookah but its not hookah that theyre addicted to, its the small traces of nicotine in the tobacco- therefore its the same as being addicted to a cigarette but, shisha (hookah tobacco) doesnt contain the same chemicals that cigarettes do (rat poison, etc.). The only reason it would make a person dizzy to smoke hookah is if they're to inhale too much too fast and you get light headed for a minute. It's really no big deal. Doing hookah does NOT make you a druggie. Hookah is NOT a drug. Infact, it is a large part of mid-easter culture- Hookah is very common in egypt, syria, israel, india, etc. Weed is subjective. Its not bad for you. No one has ever died of an overdose. Infact, alcohol is worse for you- short and long term- than marijuana. Smoking weed does not ruin your life. Its just the decisions you make which do. Despite common misconception, weed doesnt "make you lazy" or "make you dumb"- many people function the same high as when they're not. It just relaxes you therefore people dont want to do anything. I hope this helps you?
