DRUGS & ALCOHOL
Life is Short
MARIJUANA
MARIJUANA

It can also be brewed as a tea or mixed with food, or smoked
through a water pipe called a bong.

STRATEGIES FOR SAYING "NO" TO MARIJUANA IF
UNDER PEER PRESSURE TO USE IT
 Try to associate with people who do not use drugs, and avoid
situations where drugs will be used or offered to you.
 Prepare yourself for occasions when friends, peers, or even
strangers offer drugs to you.
 Participate in activities that are fulfilling to you. They are more fun,
cheaper, safer, and healthier than abusing drugs.
 Recognize your talents, skills, and accomplishments; remind

 Realize that the future is full of hope and promises, even though it

you of them.

 People must quit drugs if they are really having them now. First of
all, people must decide to stop using drugs. Its really need to be
decided by themselves. We should always give them pleasure to
let them stop thinking about drugs.
 Secondly, if they are already a heavy drug user, then they will
need some professional help to stop them, and take them to a
professional clinic to help them getting rid of drugs.
BINGE DRINKING
A serious problem
among teens today
WHAT IS BINGE DRINKING?
 Definition: A person as having five or more alcoholic drinks within
a few hours. Nearly two out of three high school students who
drink alcohol say that they binge.
SHORT-TERM SIDE EFFECTS
 Fainting
 Nausea or vomiting
 Seizures
 Impaired breathing
 Alcohol poisoning
 Coma
LONG-TERM SIDE EFFECTS
 Stomach ulcers
 Liver problems
 Neurological issues
 Cardiovascular disease
 Coma
 Death
 Most of teens abuse alcohol and experience some of alcohol
addiction side effects without being addicted to it. For example, if
a teen drinks to become intoxicated once, he may be abusing
alcohol and feel sick after using it, but that abuse is not yet an
addiction. An addiction is when a person can no longer control
whether or not he uses alcohol. Someone who is addicted to
alcohol has grown so used to using it that he will continue
consuming alcohol despite the negative consequences
experienced. An addiction can be physical, psychological or both.
 Most of teens have become dependent on drinking. An addicted
person no longer feels that he has a choice in using alcohol, and
his life has begun to center around drinking or finding ways to
drink.
