What are the signs of a Problem?
Have you ever felt you should cut down on your drinking?
Have people ever annoyed you by criticizing your drinking?
Have you ever felt bad or guilty about your drinking? Have you ever had a drink first thing the morning as an
“eye opener” or to get rid of a hangover?
One “yes” suggests a possible alcohol problem. And if you answered “yes” to more than one question it is highly likely that a problem exists.
![Page 17: Tobacco, Alcohol and other Drugs Coquille Talbert Intervention and Prevention Specialist, MDHS.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e395503460f94b2a6e3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Getting drunk on a regular basis? Lying about how much alcohol he or she is using? Believing that alcohol is necessary to have fun or
celebrate an occasion? Having frequent hangovers? Having “blackouts” (forgetting what he or she did
while drinking)
How can you tell if a friend has a problem? → is your friend…

Can Alcoholism be Cured? Alcoholism and abuse can be treated but
there is currently no “cure.” Although, current research has shown that
Topamax a prescription medication may curb the cravings for alcohol.
“Cutting down” on drinking doesn’t work. Cutting out alcohol is necessary for a successful recovery.

Does your mom or dad drink too much? It’s not your fault and you’re not alone. One in four teens live in families with
alcohol abuse or alcoholism. Talk to a caring adult. Many teachers,
counselors, coaches, youth ministers, doctors or a friend’s parent’s, aunt, uncle or grandparent may be anxious to help and are waiting for you to say something first.

Peer Pressure Have you ever given into pressure? Like
when a friend begs to borrow something you don’t want to lend them? Or begs you to do something your parents say is off limits?
Chances are you have probably given into pressure at sometime in your life.
![Page 45: Tobacco, Alcohol and other Drugs Coquille Talbert Intervention and Prevention Specialist, MDHS.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e395503460f94b2a6e3/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Examples of Peer Pressure: “why don’t you leave if you don’t want to
drink with us?” “you’re so lame” “it won’t hurt you” “your parents won’t find out” “you’ll have more fun” “Just take a hit/toke”
![Page 46: Tobacco, Alcohol and other Drugs Coquille Talbert Intervention and Prevention Specialist, MDHS.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e395503460f94b2a6e3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Unspoken Peer Pressure: A group of kids standing together, and everyone
is talking and maybe looking at something you can’t see, laughing and joking.
Kids who think they’re cool give you a certain look that means, “we’re cool and you’re not”
A group of popular kids all get the same phone or bag or something, and you want one too.
