The correct answer is all of them.

Examples of depressants are alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines and cannabis. When consuming any type of depressant you are taking a risk as they are altering your central nervous system and the four outcomes listed are all common reactions. Depressants can also be used in a positive manner if used sensibly and as prescribed medication to treat anxiety.
