Nicotine changes the brain.

SS+

If you use products with nicotine you’ll begin to crave nicotine, causing you to use it more often. Welcome to nicotine addiction!

Vaping, Tobacco & Nicoti Addiction

Nicotine attaches to special receptors in the brain, flooding the brain with chemicals like acetylcholine (energizes the body) and dopamine (makes you feel good.) Keep using nicotine and the brain gets used to the flood of chemicals. This is how your brain gets addicted.

Nicotine is Addictive

No matter how you use nicotine, these products will come back to bite you.

In This Issue

• Nicotine dependence means that it’s difficult to quit even though the drug is causing you harm. • When you stop using nicotine, your body will experience unpleasant withdrawal symptoms that can last for months.

• Nicotine Addiction • Vaping & Juuling

The Death Count

• The more you use nicotine, the more dependent on the drug your body becomes.

8,000,000+ per year Nicotine kills. Worldwide, more than 8 million people a year die from tobacco use. Don’t become part of that number.

• Low Text-to-Image Ratio - Encourages reading without overwhelming the reader • Cutting-Edge Design - Grabs and hold attention

• Research-based Content - Prevention information you can trust

FWDPaks! A Great Value!

Nicotine products are terrible.

• Easy to Read - Defeats short attention spans to deliver the prevention message

• Relatable Imagery - Makes prevention messaging more relevant to readers

The brain is not fully developed until the age of 25. Start using nicotine before 25 and your brain literally grows up with a nicotine addiction. This can lead to mental illnesses and diseases such as depression and anxiety, and locks in nicotine addiction for life.

The younger you start using nicotine, the harder it is to quit in the future.

icotine is the drug found in vapes, cigarettes, and other tobacco products that keeps you hooked.

MAGAZINE

• Smoking harms almost every organ in your body and causes heart disease, stroke, and cancer. • All the dangers of vaping are not known, but vaping gets you addicted to nicotine much quicker. • Smokeless tobacco has crazy levels of nicotine and leads to a fast addiction and nasty diseases.

• Tobacco: Really Bad • How to Quit

STOP. THINK.

DON’T DRINK.

DON’T GET ADDICTED

How To Tell if You Have Covid? Know the Signs!

Substance Abuse is on the Rise

With schools, stores, restaurants, and offices reopening, it’s important to remember that it is still possible to contract and pass on COVID.

Since the pandemic began, there has been a big increase in the number of people dealing with substance abuse issues. Pandemic related stress and anxiety, coupled with isolation, has led many to turn to drugs and alcohol to cope. Don’t let stress get the best of you by turning to drugs or alcohol!

#WhatToExpect – COVID Test Need a COVID test? Here are the different kinds and what to expect:

If you’re feeling sick and have any of these symptoms, get tested as soon as possible: • Fever or chills • Cough • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing • Fatigue • Muscle or body aches • Headache • New loss of taste or smell • Sore throat • Congestion or runny nose • Nausea or vomiting • Diarrhea

> > > > F O R W A R D F E E D M A G A Z I N E < < < < + H E A LT H + I N F O + P R O G R E S S +

All Risk And No Reward

Since many COVID symptoms resemble the flu, it’s important to get tested if you’re showing any of these signs, particularly if you’ve been exposed to someone who has or has had COVID.

COVID-19: Survival Guide

Drugs and alcohol have a negative impact on the body’s immune system. This makes it easier to get sick and could make it easier for people to get COVID. Because alcohol and drug use reduces higher reasoning skills, teens and young adults might make bad decisions or take more risks with their health.

NASAL TEST How it’s done: Swabbing the inside of your nose What it does: Check for the virus’s genetic material Result time: Results are usually ready the same day but can take up to a week

THROAT TEST How it’s done: Swabbing of the back of your throat What it does: Checks for viral proteins Result Time: Results are typically ready between 15 and 30 minutes

Some symptoms may be severe enough to mean a trip to the emergency room. If you or someone else have any of the following symptoms, seek immediate help: • Trouble breathing • Persistent pain or pressure in the chest • New confusion • Inability to wake or stay awake

• Pale, gray, or blue-colored skin, lips, or nail beds, depending on skin tone

Even without the pandemic, substance abuse among teens and young adults is a terrible problem. During a pandemic, this issue can be even more deadly.

STAYING SAFE, STAYING SANE

#RealTalk: The COVID Vaccine

What About Sports & Clubs?

Vaccine Facts There are TONS of rumors and false information floating around about vaccines. It might be hard to know what’s real. But keep this in mind: the global medical community has been developing these vaccines and there have been many trials that prove they are safe and work. All of the scientific evidence points to the COVID vaccines being effective at preventing infection from the virus, as well as minimizing the symptoms if someone does get COVID. What we don’t know right now is just how effective it is at preventing the spread from person to person, which is why masks and social distancing are still a vital part of keeping everyone safe.

There has been a sharp rise in mental health issues since the pandemic began and this doesn’t show signs of stopping.

If you have questions about the vaccine, including if you’re able to take it, talk to your doctor.

In This Issue

The Unknown Prioritize your #MentalHealth

Despite undergoing thorough testing, there are still some unknowns about the vaccine:

Everyone has been worried about the effect of COVID-19 on the body’s physical health, but what about your mental health? The pandemic is a heavy load on the body and the mind.

• How long it will protect people from COVID? • How effective it will be at fighting off new strains?

While we will get answers to these questions in time, following your doctor’s advice is the best idea.

• Schools Reopen! • Staying Sane in a Pandemic

Highlights include:

• What to Expect This Year

• What Covid-19 is and how to protect yourself

• Take the COVID Stress Test

Brain: Nicotine is as addictive as heroin. Once you start smoking, it can be incredibly difficult to stop. Mouth: Reduced blood flow causes gum disease. Can cause painful cuts and ulcers. Increases the chance of mouth cancer. Throat: Exposes the throat to thousands of chemicals, some causing cancer. Leads to inflammation, irritation, and cancer.

Smoking’s Effect on the Body

Lungs: Devastates the lungs. Every cigarette smoked causes permanent lung damage. Lung cancer is the number one risk factor of smoking. Stomach and Intestines: Can lead to bowel problems and inflammation that is incredibly uncomfortable. More likely to develop colon cancer and die from it. Liver: Increases the risk of liver cancer and liver failure due to excessive damage.

Skin: Leads to dry skin and acne. Depletes vitamin C in the skin, making it harder to repair damage.

Kidneys: Causes high blood pressure, increases the risk of kidney disease. Doubles the risk of developing kidney cancer. Bladder: Causes frequent urination and leaking of the bladder. Increases the risk of bladder cancer by 4 to 7 times.

Terrie Hall, who started smoking in high school, died in 2013 at the age of just 53.

WHAT IS ALCOHOLISM?

Over 97,000 people between ages 18 and 24 become victims of alcohol-related sexual assault or date rape each year. Alcohol causes chronic illness, damages relationships, causes grades to slip, and can even stunt your growth and the development of your brain.

Alcoholism is also known as an Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). It impairs a person’s ability to control their alcohol use even when it is causing them harm.

What is alcohol? The alcohol in a drink is called Ethanol, which is a colorless alcohol made from plants, and is a depressant psychoactive drug.

Some may think alcoholism is a choice, but this is not entirely true. It is actually a chronic brain disease that can be very difficult to overcome.

“Psychoactive” means it alters and impairs your nervous system. “Depressant” means it becomes hard to concentrate, coordinate movements, and react. Higher doses can cause unconsciousness, memory blackouts, vomiting, coma or death.

What Counts As “A Drink”? Not all drinks have the same amount of ethanol in them. This is why we measure alcohol as a standard drink:

What Is A Standard Drink? 14 grams 1 Standard Drink

alcohol

It is not that uncommon, either. One out of every seven users becomes physically dependent on alcohol. Many live with it their whole lives despite trying to get help.

A standard drink contains 14 grams of alcohol. This is usually equal to one 12 oz beer, one 5 oz glass of wine, or one 1.5 oz shot of distilled spirits. Each of these drinks have about the same effect on a person.

You can develop an AUD at any age, but since young people digest alcohol faster, they are at a higher risk of developing a dependence.

What Is Blood Alcohol Content?

In This Issue:

1 Beer

= =

9 Oz. Malt Liquor

5 Oz. Wine

1.5 Oz. Shot

BAC, or Blood Alcohol Content, is a measure of how much alcohol is in your body. It can be measured with a breathalyzer or a blood test. The official legal limit is 0.08, but if you are under the age of 21, anything over 0.01 is considered illegal.

Roughly 20 percent of college students meet the criteria for an AUD, and the only way to avoid developing it is to stay away from alcohol completely.

PHYSICAL EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL

• Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol, Sexual Assault and Harassment Drinking lowers inhibitions, which means users do things they wouldn’t normally do. Many people have sexual experiences they later regret, and fail to use protection -- which means they’re at risk for catching sexually transmitted infections (STI) or becoming pregnant. 70% of teen pregnancies begin under the influence of alcohol, and 60% of college women who contracted an STI did so while drunk.

Alcohol can have different effects depending on weight, gender, etc. But did you know that alcohol effects young people differently than older people? The younger the drinker, the greater the chance of developing an alcohol addiction.

• Drinking

67% of college men who assaulted women had been drinking, and 50% of their victims had as well.

• Alcohol: Really Bad

How alcohol effects a person depends on many different factors.

• How to Quit

Half of all sexual assaults involve

Height and Weight- One standard drink has a much bigger effect on a smaller person than it does on a larger one.

Gender- Females tend to become intoxicated faster than males, regardless of height and weight, because their bodies usually retain less water.

Age- Young people metabolize alcohol faster than older adults. This means they can build up a tolerance much faster, which can easily lead to alcoholism.

Genetics- Certain genes lower your alcohol tolerance and increase your risk of developing a dependence on alcohol.

Food and Water- Drinking on an empty stomach or while dehydrated can cause a person to get drunk much faster, which increases the risk of alcohol overdose.

alcohol use by the perpitrator, the victim, or both. Relationships Many people wake up after a night of drinking to find they have physically or emotionally hurt someone... getting into verbal or physical fights, destroying someone’s property, or cheating on a partner.

Medication- Prescription and over- the-counter medications can be harmful when mixed with alcohol. They can make you feel more intoxicated, cause serious health problems, and even cause death.

Domestic violence cases and assault cases are much more common when alcohol is involved.

MARIJUANA

Marijuana Is Tough On The Brain. Marijuana use can be incredibly harmful, especially to teens.

AND YOUR GRADES

The brain is not fully developed until the age of 25. During development, the young brain builds structures and forms connections that make it more efficient and strengthens abilities such as self control. When young people take mind altering drugs like marijuana, it has incredibly powerful and negative effects on their brain development. THC affects the areas of the brain responsible for memory and learning, meaning that the more marijuana you use, the worse your memory will be and the harder it will be to learn new information.

High school students that use marijuana are more likely to fail classes and drop out of school and are far less likely to go to college.

Additionally, especially in states where marijuana is illegal, marijuana usage could get you expelled or suspended from school, fired from your job, or locked up behind bars.

• Vaping THC • Marijuana & Grades • How to Quit

MARIJUANA WILL

The effect of marijuana on the mind continues long after the high is over. Although medical professionals have suspected for many years that marijuana use takes a lasting toll on mental function, recent studies confirm their fears.

Studies have shown that frequent marijuana users have lower grades and can lose as many as eight IQ points.

HURT YOUR GRADES

A person who uses marijuana does not return to their normal mental capacity for at least a day and at most several weeks. For a student, this means that marijuana use translates directly into a serious learning handicap, hurting grades as well as any other mentally demanding activities such as sports, drama, music, or debate.

+ + + + + Vaping THC is possibly the most dangerous way to use marijuana, and it is only becoming more and more popular among young people. + + .. >> web search:

VAPING DEATHS

MARIJUANA EDIBLES Marijuana edibles are THC-infused foods and drinks that often contain extremely high concentrations of the drug.

These highly concentrated THC products are designed to give the user a high from eating the food, a method that leads to several problems. First, it takes much longer for the effects of edibles to kick in (up to three hours) because the THC is ingested instead of smoked. Many users take edibles, become impatient because they don’t feel anything, take more, and overdose on marijuana. This can lead to dangerous and strange behavior, as users who have accidentally taken too much lose control of themselves and their actions. Edibles are one of the most dangerous forms of taking marijuana.

+ conclusion: E-cigarette, or vaping, products (nicotine- or THC-containing) should never be used by youths, young adults, or women who are pregnant.

LIVES RUINED

+ + + + + + + +

Levy Thamba Pongi was a 19-year-old college student from Wyoming who jumped to his death from a Denver hotel balcony after eating a marijuana cookie. Police reported that witnesses said that Pongi was rambling incoherently after consuming a large serving of the cookie. The Denver coroner ruled that “marijuana intoxication” was a significant factor in Pongi’s death. Richard Kirk of Denver faces first-degree murder charges stemming from the fatal shooting of his wife. Kirk’s wife called 9-1-1 to report that he was rambling incoherently and experiencing hallucinations after consuming marijuana candy and taking prescription medications. Kirk allegedly shot and killed his wife while she was on the phone with a police dispatcher.

Marijuana: Dangerous & Risky

The problem is that it’s impossible to know exactly what is in the vape cartridge. THC vape cartridges often contain heavy metals, pesticides, and vitamin e-acetate, that can be damaging or deadly when inhaled. Emergency room visits related to vaping have skyrocketed over the past few years. There have been thousands of lung injury cases and over 60 deaths linked directly to vaping THC. One lung surgeon described the damage done to one teenager’s lungs as “an evil I’ve never seen before.”

WHY DO PEOPLE VAPE

A Juul is a small e-cig that looks like a USB drive. It is small and easy to hide. A Juul “pod” holds a liquid that contains flavors, other chemicals, and nicotine that is heated when turned on. Juul delivers astoundingly high doses of nicotine, (one e-liquid pods is equal to a pack of cigarettes in terms of nicotine). Double the amount in other e-cigarettes.

HOW CAN I PREVENT MY TEEN FROM VAPING THC?

One of the best things you can do as a parent is sit your teen down and have a conversation about vaping marijuana. Ask your child about kids vaping THC at school and how they feel about it.

If you discover that your child is already vaping THC, then it is time to take action. Make sure you are on the same page with your spouse or partner before you confront your teen. You should both try to have a calm but firm conversation about your teen’s drug use. Determine beforehand what the rules will be and what consequences your teen will face if those rules are broken.

- M.Scott Prevention Services Assoc. Director

TALK GUIDELINES: • Know the facts about vaping THC before you start. • Be patient and listen; you want a conversation, not a lecture. • Look for natural opportunities to talk about vaping THC, such as passing a vape shop or smelling

marijuana on the street. • Show interest and concern, and try not to blame or accuse your child. • Set a positive example by being drug-free yourself.

IF NOTHING ELSE WORKS, SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP.

If your child continues to vape THC to the point of dependence, have them examined for signs of drug use and other health issues by a doctor. You might also seek the advice of an addiction specialist. Addiction professionals have the experience and resources to suggest further treatment options for your child.

www.cdc.gov/marijuana/

A popular misconception is that vaping is safer than smoking combustible substances, but that idea may simply be wrong. There isn’t a lot of research concerning the safety of vaping THC, but there have been hundreds and hundreds of cases of serious lung disease and injury, and it is thought to have played a part in a growing number of vaping/respiratory related deaths. The bottomline is that vaping THC is a risky business that may lead to serious health consequences and even death.

E-JOINTS THE BIG LIE ABOUT A SAFER HIGH

e-cigarettes.surgeongeneral.gov/default.htm

Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances in the world and starting young can hook you for life. Teen vapers have a harder time quitting as their brain develops around the addiction. Statistics now show that teen vapers are also 4x more likely to start smoking cigarettes. Vaping is a fast path to nicotine addiction in all of its forms. Early nicotine addiction can make it easier to become addicted to other drugs such as meth and cocaine.

English PB-DA287 Spanish PB-DA287-SP

FOR A HIGH

FORMATION

U.S. Surgeon General’s Know the Risks:

Vaping is a new and largely unresearched way to consume nicotine, the addictive chemical found in tobacco. Vape juice, a liquid made of water, glycerine, flavorings, and different amounts of nicotine, is heated up by a battery device and inhaled. Popular vapes like Juul contain an equal level of nicotine as an entire pack of cigarettes. This makes it easier for teens to develop addictions faster and more potently.

“Vaping” is when someone inhales the vapor from a leaf, oil or liquid substance that has been heated in a battery operated device called a vaporizer. Vaporizers can come in many different shapes and sizes. There are vaporizers that transform dry leaf marijuana, “wax”, “dab” or concentrate forms, and THC oil infused e-liquids. Any e-cigarette vaporizer can be used to vape THC, even Juuls can be modified and filled with THC e-liquids.

English PB-DA291 Spanish PB-DA291-SP

The human brain doesn’t finish developing until age 25. Clinical research has shown that teens that vape are messing with their brain chemistry. Teen vapers do not perform as well on tests of memory and attention and have decreased brain activity in the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain where planning and other complex activities occur.

to feel happy, relaxed or focused. They start to connect routine activities with tobacco, creating mental triggers. This makes it hard to do those activities without smoking. This is called addiction. Without nicotine, the addicted brain suffers withdrawal. Withdrawal is a lot like being sick, both mentally and physically. The body and brain react to the lack of nicotine as the brain tries to change back to its normal state. This process makes users depressed, frustrated, angry and irritable. They may have trouble sleeping, difficulty concentrating, headaches, fatigue and an increased appetite. It also leads to nausea, a sore throat, cramping and insomnia. Withdrawal leads the user to start craving tobacco so they can feel normal again.

TOBACCO FACTS • Over 480,000 people die a year from tobacco usage or secondhand smoke. • Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States. • 16 million people in the United States suffer from a tobacco related illness. • Two-thirds of smokers have tried to quit at least once and failed. • On average, smokers die 10 years earlier than nonsmokers.

SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF TOBACCO USE. Tobacco use causes bad breath, smelly hair and clothes and yellow and brown stains on the teeth. Elevated heart rate occurs after use. Using tobacco also increases the risk of other drug abuse. Smokers quickly lose athletic ability due to decreased lung capacity. Young smokers’ lungs stop growing, and their lung function is limited for life. Smokers have chronic coughs and increased rates of bronchitis and severe asthma. Spit tobacco makes chewers drool. The gums pull away from their teeth and they don’t grow back. Gum loss leads to more tooth decay. Chewers often have sores, white and red patches on their lips and lumps in the mouth. Many of these sores are precancerous.

No smoking laws, higher taxes, more health education and a general public outcry are all leading to a reduction in the number of people smoking cigarettes. That’s a good thing for public health and a terrible thing for Big Tobacco company sales. Big Tobacco’s solution? Snus. As cigarette revenues fall, Big Tobacco is scrambling to come up with their next addictive product line. Sales of moist snuff smokeless tobacco, such as Skoal® and Copenhagen®, have more than doubled in the last 20 years, while the use of chewing tobacco has declined. But the increase in moist snuff tobacco sales isn’t enough to cover the lost revenue from cigarettes. The biggest drawback to these forms of spit tobacco? The spit. That’s where snus comes in.

the smoke that the smoker inhales. Tobacco smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, including hundreds that are toxic and around 70 that can cause cancer. The toxic chemicals in secondhand smoke cause bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, coughs and ear infections. Secondhand smoke causes nearly 34,000 deaths from heart disease and 8,000 deaths from stroke each year. Family members of smokers are also 40% more likely to develop lung cancer and heart disease than others. When you smoke, you put everyone around you in danger.

This pamphlet provides an overview of tobacco, one of the most addictive and deadliest substances in the world. Readers are informed about the many short-term and long-term effects of using tobacco, and why tobacco is the single-most preventable cause of death in the U.S. English PB-DA99 Spanish PB-DA99-SP

If someone offers you a cigarette or dip, say “No thanks, I don’t smoke (or chew).” Don’t be tobacco’s next victim or put anyone around you in danger. Most users wish they had never started. Tobacco use is unattractive, annoying to others and deadly to everyone nearby. If you have friends who smoke or chew, encourage them to quit. The sooner they quit, the better off they’ll be.

Gives readers the deadly history of spit tobacco, explains the dangers and advises readers on ways to quit and say “no.”

Snus (rhymes with noose) is a moist powder tobacco that originated in Sweden. It comes in two forms: loose snus that a user “pinches” or snus enclosed in a tea bag-like pouch. Users place the snus between their upper lip and gum. Unlike other forms of smokeless tobacco, snus users don’t have to spit out nasty brown tobacco juice. For up to 30 minutes, they can keep snus in their mouths sucking nicotine and other carcinogens into their bodies.

Quit Tobacco http://www.ucanquit2.org

Quit Smokeless http://www.quitsmokeless.org

English PB-DA155 Spanish PB-DA155-SP

To make snus, dried tobacco leaves are cured, ground into a fine power, and mixed with other chemicals. Since the FDA doesn’t regulate tobacco, no one really knows what the tobacco companies are actually putting into their snus products. But there’s one ingredient you know is in there: nicotine.

TOBACCO PREVENTION

They Said What?-

In the past, the Tobacco Industry told the public that nicotine was not an addictive drug. However, studies show that nicotine is mind-altering, addictive and deadly. The Tobacco Industry lies about the dangers of nicotine products, especially to youth, but they could not hide the truth forever.

Here are some excerpts of the Tobacco Industry admitting the truth about their products. “Of course it’s addictive. That’s why you smoke the stuff.” -Ross Johnson, ex-Chief Executive of RJ Reynolds

E-Cigarettes

“Don’t vape. Don’t use Juul. Don’t start using nicotine if you don’t have a preexisting relationship with nicotine...yes it is addictive.” -Kevin Burns, ex-Juul CEO

Vaping is not FDA approved, delivers up to 20 times as much nicotine, is easily addictive, harms young adult brain development, causes lung related illness, affects memory, concentration, attention, mood, and has even killed users.

Here’s what the Tobacco Industry admitted about its effort to specifically recruit young users. “We were targeting kids...it was just company policy.” -Terence Sullivan, a sales rep for RJ Reynolds

“Certainly Philip Morris should continue efforts for Marlboro in the youth market...” -1974 Philip Morris Document

In this mini-mag, preteens learn about the dangers of smoking and vaping, some of the most common forms of tobacco products, and the lengths tobacco companies have gone to get young people hooked.

E-cigarettes, or vapes, are easily the most commonly used form of tobacco product by young people in the United States. They are battery powered tobacco products that simulate smoking by allowing the user to inhale ﬂavored vapor containing nicotine. The sweet ﬂavors may seem appealing, but the reality is that this vapor contains toxic chemicals and particles that damage the body.

“Very few consumers are aware of the effects of nicotine, its addictive nature, and that nicotine is a poison.” -Brown and Williamson memo signed by H.D. Steele

Tobacco & Vaping: Smash It!

E-cigarettes are a new product and have not been around long enough to study the long-term side effects, but there is evidence of serious lung damage, cancer and death in people who have been vaping for even just a few years. They may not smell as stinky, but e-cigarettes are just as dangerous as cigarettes!

Size: 5 ½" x 8 ½" 16 pages Grade: 6–8 English PB-DA108-MM

There are many types of e-cigarettes, and each looks very different-be on the lookout for some of these products!

“Serious efforts to learn to smoke occur between ages 12 and 13 in most cases.” -Imperial Tobacco Limited

UPDATED!

Revised and Updated for 2021! Updated and modernized to help the current generation of kids be informed about the dangers of tobacco and nicotine, now includes information on the dangers of vaping.

LOOK OUT AND STAY AWAY! Tobacco is the biggest cause of disease and death in the United States! There are many tobacco products, and some may even look very different from the ones you may know about. Can you recognize all the different forms of tobacco products? Look below to see the types of tobacco products and what they look like so you can stay away!

Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug because so many people think that it’s harmless. Some people think that using marijuana doesn’t affect their ability to drive. But this belief couldn’t be further from the truth. Driving while high is just as treacherous, and just as illegal, as driving while drunk.

Long-term Effects Unknown: Little research has been done health effects on the long-term of CBD a gamble. CBD, making long-term use of While FDA approved containing CBD products may be safe time will tell in the short-term if CBD is safe , for long-term use. Are There Health Benefits? Some clinical studies CBD helps symptoms show that such as:

• Pain • Anxiety • Arthritis • Epilepsy • PTSD • Alcoholism • and other disorders Schizophrenia

However, there isn’t enough research to say for certain that CBD is safe or effective.

Drivers who have smoked marijuana are unable to: • React quickly to other cars. • Judge distances accurately. • Maintain their speed. • Focus on driving and on the road. The effects of marijuana can take hours to wear off – so even if a person thinks they’re not “high” anymore, their judgment and driving skills may still be impaired.

MARIJUANA AND THE MIND

Drug Abuse

The most common long-term effect of marijuana abuse is something called amotivational syndrome. Abusers lose interest in the future and stop caring about things that used to be important to them. They neglect school, chores, personal health, and relationships. It can take up to two years to regain a normal motivation level.

Pot, Weed, Herb, Kush, Mary Jane, Dope, Chronic, Bud, Sinsemilla, ganja, hashish and hash oil (stronger forms of marijuana).

Marijuana’s effects can be unpredictable. The effects that abusers are seeking include relaxation, release and giddiness. However, this is not always the case. The chemical THC in marijuana mimics neurotransmitters that send messages between nerve cells, affecting the brain areas involved in pleasure, memory, thinking, concentration, movement and time perception. This unnatural alteration in the brain’s usual activity can permanently disrupt brain function. This can make it unsafe for a person using marijuana to drive a car, operate heavy machinery, engage in sports or other potentially dangerous physical activities.

SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF USING MARIJUANA Users can have problems with memory, learning and problem solving after ingesting the drug only a few times. Abusers lose coordination and their senses of sight, hearing, touch, time and depth are distorted. Marijuana increases heart rate, causes anxiety and panic attacks and has also been linked to depression.

Marijuana use often comes with many adverse effects. Many users become dizzy, have difficulty walking and have red, bloodshot eyes. Terrible thirst— “cotton mouth”—and hunger— “the munchies”—are typical. Some people fall asleep when they use marijuana. Others experience intense anxiety or paranoia.

Marijuana: Stone-Cold Stupid Pamphlet

LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF USING MARIJUANA

There are over 200 slang terms for marijuana, including:

Marijuana can cause a great deal of other damage over time, including: •

Increasing tolerance—the need for larger amounts to feel the same effects

•

Permanent damage to thinking and reasoning ability

•

Chronic bronchitis, frequent chest colds and pneumonia

•

Increased risk of lung or oral cancer

•

Weakened immune system

•

Damage to the reproductive system and infertility in both sexes

•

Miscarriage or brain damage to fetuses

The reader is given information on how marijuana impacts the user’s mind, describing feelings of paranoia, a loss of interest in normal activities, increasing need for the drug to just feel “normal,” and shortterm sensory distortions.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT MARIJUANA? • Marijuana is a Schedule 1 Illicit Substance in the United States, meaning it is one of the most illegal drugs to use, possess, or sell. • Exposure to secondhand marijuana smoke will cause a “contact high” and potentially show up in a drug test.

English PB-DA97 Spanish PB-DA97-SP

• In one study, 33% of arrested reckless drivers tested positive for marijuana. • Marijuana is legal for recreational and medical use in several states for adults over the age of 21, and legal for medical use in many more states. • Marijuana is used by 55 million adults in the United States, with 33% of them having a substance abuse disorder related to marijuana.

If someone offers you marijuana, the best thing to do is say, “No, thanks.” You don’t owe them any explanation. Say you’re just not interested and make a quick exit. Keep potheads and pot smoke out of your life. Your brain, your body and your goals are too important to be a burnout.

Fake Pills = REAL RISKS You have no idea what’s in that pill. Counterfeit pills laced with much stronger synthetic drugs have been found in 42 OUT OF 50 STATES. Most counterfeit pills are laced with Fentanyl or one of it’s 40 synthetic analogues.

DEATHS FROM FENTANYL AND OTHER SYNTHETIC OPIOIDS HAVE RISEN 540%.

Addiction Opioids are HIGHLY ADDICTIVE and when users are given powerful counterfeits it increases the chances of becoming hooked.

Overdose

Death

Drug overdose is now the #1 cause of accidental death

A dose as small as 0.25 mg is enough to kill an otherwise healthy adult - THAT’S ABOUT THE SIZE OF FOUR GRAINS OF SALT.

GETTING HELP

There are treatment options available synthetic drugs for users. Talk to a counselor doctor to get help or with your addiction.

MORE THAN CAR ACCIDENTS & GUN VIOLENCE. Most of these deaths are directly linked to to illegal fentanyl in counterfeit drugs.

Most counterfeits contain drugs that are 50 TO 100 TIMES stronger than the user expects, triggering an overdose.

Why Make Counterfeit Pills? To make money. Counterfeiters buy cheap, illegal fentanyl from China and pill presses over the internet and create their own pills for a fraction of the cost, yet they charge the same amount as a pharmaceutical grade pill on the streets.

a Guinea Pig!

A multi-million dollar fentanyl lab with over 500,000 pills labeled as OxyContin and Xanax was discovered in a suburban Utah basement. THE PILLS WERE SOLD ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND CONTAINED ONLY FENTANYL.

National Institute on Drug Abuse - Parenting Resources:

Psychoactive drugs contain chemicals that travel through the bloodstream to the brain, triggering forms of hallucinations such as false smells and tastes, moods, and other forms of altered consciousness. Unscrupulous companies looking for a way to cash in on the addiction of drug users without technically breaking the law discovered ways to artificially combine, or “synthesize,” chemicals that would have the same effects as illegal drugs. Oddly enough, in some ways these synthetic creations are more dangerous than the drugs they copy, since there is little to no information on their potential dangers. In one case, users of a newly designed and unstudied synthetic drug developed lifelong symptoms similar to those of Parkinson’s disease after just one dose.

Drugs: Don’t Get Vaporized Pamphlet

While the threats posed by illegal drugs are dangerous enough, they are not the only substance abuse concern for parents. Along with legal prescription drugs, synthetic drugs (or “Legal Highs”) are often mistakenly viewed by teens as safe because they are not prohibited by law. These dangerous products appear on gas station cash counters and in head shops around the country, giving the impression that they are legal, danger-free alternatives to better-known drugs like marijuana, LSD, and other psychoactives. National, state, and local law enforcement agencies are scrambling to devise an effective response strategy to these products, but in the meantime it’s up to parents to educate themselves and their children about synthetic drugs.

WHAT IS IT?

As a new addition to the illicit drug market, acetyl fentanyl is proving to be quite an

As with any illegal drug, acetyl fentanyl is not checked for purity and there aren’t any standards for its production or ingredients. That means that it could be contaminated with other substances, it might be packaged as other drugs, or it could have a variety of potencies. All these variables make acetyl fentanyl a risky proposition.

Also know as desmethyl fentanyl, this drug was synthesized around the same time as fentanyl in the 1960s. It was never licensed for therapeutic use, but it was sold illegally although rarely. With the drug’s reemergence, healthcare professionals and law enforcement officers have quickly learned how deadly it is.

Just by itself, acetyl fentanyl is five times more potent than heroin. And heroin is considered to be the most addictive and dangerous drug out there. If acetyl fentanyl is combined with other opioids, amphetamines, or cocaine, there is a very good chance for overdose. If it’s labeled as a different substance and sold to unsuspecting users, they may overdose. And when the potency of the drug varies from batch to batch, it’s already so strong that just a small error in dosing can cause an overdose.

It can resemble heroin in consistency, packaging, and color, making it difficult for users to know what they’re getting. In pill form, acetyl fentanyl is often packaged to look like oxycodone, which may result in deadly consequences.

Prescription Drug Abuse

PRESCRIPTION

How It Affects the Body

STORAGE & DISPOSAL

All of the commonly-abused prescription drugs are addictive. This includes prescription opioids, such as Vicodin and OxyContin, central nervous system depressants, such as Xanax and Valium, and prescription stimulants, such as Ritalin and Adderall. All of these medications carry the risk of severe side effects, addiction, or death when abused.

Proper storage and disposal of medication saves lives. It prevents children from accidentally taking medication, teenagers from trying to steal pills to get high and prevents diversion legitimate medication being sold on the streets for profit.

BRAIN Stimulants Cause: Psychosis Paranoia Insomnia Seizures Depressants Cause: Withdrawal Seizures Suicidal thoughts Death

STORAGE

PROPER DISPOSAL

Organize and track your medications.

LUNGS

Unused or expired medication should be taken OUT of it’s original containers and disposed of properly.

• Store all of your medication in one place - it will be easier to keep track of what you have and dispose of expired medication.

Fluid build-up Shortness of breath Infections/pneumonia Death

How to throw out your unused or expired medication:

• Pick a safe storage location - Make sure it’s high up, out of sight, and not easily accessible by young children. It should be cool and dry so not to damage your medications.

• MIX IT - Mix medicines with undesirable products like dirt, kitty litter, used coffee grounds or other spoiled food. Do not crush tablets or capsules.

• Lock up any prescriptions that may have a “street value” - antidepressants, painkillers, ADHD medication, and anti-anxiety medications are all commonly abused drugs that are often found in medicine cabinets.

HEART Abnormal heart rate Heart attack Heart failure

STOMACH Nausea Bloating Reduced appetite Stomach pain Weight loss

• SEAL IT - Place the mix in a sealed container, can or plastic bag. • TRASH IT - Throw the whole container in your household trash. • SCRATCH IT - Scratch out any personal details or remove the label on any empty pill bottles then dispose of the container.

DOs AND DON’Ts

INTESTINES Constipation Laxative dependency

OF MEDICATION STORAGE AND DISPOSAL DO TRACK YOUR EXPIRATION DATES. Expired medications are ineffective at best and potentially dangerous at worst.

KIDNEYS

DON’T GIVE YOUR MEDICATION TO OTHERS. Sharing medications can be dangerous, and it could lead to diversion. DO LOCK UP YOUR MEDICATIONS. Securing your medications can protect children, pets and visitors to your home.

Renal failure Dialysis

IMMUNE SYSTEM

DO TAKE YOUR MEDICATIONS AS PRESCRIBED. Talk to your doctor about how to take your meds, and make sure you understand instructions. DON’T LEAVE MEDICATIONS IN YOUR PURSE OR POCKET. It is too easy for children to find them there.

Lowers your defense system Puts you at risk for other illnesses

DON'T FLUSH YOUR MEDICATIONS DOWN THE TOILET, unless the packaging directs you to or they are on the safe to flush drug list - usually strong opioids like fentanyl and other painkillers.

THE EASIEST AND SAFEST WAY TO DISPOSE OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS IS TO USE A “TAKE BACK” PROGRAM.

ABUSING RX DRUGS WHILE PREGNANT RAISES THE RISK OF: Contractions - pre-term labor/birth Birth Defects or Fetal Death Underdeveloped or underweight babies

National Prescription Drug Take Back Day provides safe, easy and responsible ways to dispose of prescription drugs. Local law enforcement agencies often provide year round, or regular drop off days for prescription medications. Visit the website below to find dates and locations of safe drop of sites near you.

THE DRUG SCENE CHANGES

In the recent past, the drug scene was “illegal” and dominated by names such as marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, methamphetamine (meth), heroin and LSD…among others. According to the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids (PDFK), today’s drug scene is changing rapidly to legal because teens think it is a safe high. While the use of illegal drugs by young people has remained stable, the misuse of OTC medications is growing. Experts predict the abuse of OTC medications will soon surpass that of marijuana, cocaine and meth because of how easy they are to get.

If you answered “b,” you are correct. If you’ve gotten into the habit of heading for the drug store or the medicine cabinet in order to feel good, you’re probably already addicted. Even though those medications were purchased legally, they are just as dangerous as illegal drugs when abused.

Cocaine is highly addictive and destructive drug. Detecting Cocaine Dependency Explains the difference between Cocaine and Crack, the high risk of addiction, and the many serious physical and psychological effects these life-destroying substances produce.

Coming in from the Snow Recovery from Cocaine Abuse or Addiction If you are reading this brochure then you or someone you know probably believes that you are suffering from cocaine abuse. Cocaine is a very powerful drug with a high potential for abuse. It’s one of the most habit forming illicit drugs. It’s not glamorous and it’s not good for you. For every rush there is a drop, and every minute spent on top will be met with two on bottom. Complicating the lure of cocaine is its low social stigma. The perception of cocaine’s effects dovetail with American values of industriousness and drive: It’s an upper that ‘helps you work more’. It’s the drug of choice of fashionable glitterati, executives, millionaires and celebrities. But even they end up dead or in rehab. Don’t be fooled by the abuser’s façade: cocaine is by no means harmless.

Cocaine addiction can also be called cocaine dependency. This is because the sufferer’s body and mind are reliant upon cocaine. Here are some questions that might help to clarify if one is cocaine dependent.

• Have I given up things that I enjoyed in order to use cocaine? • Have I chosen cocaine over a friend or loved one? • Does cocaine interfere with my work or finances? • Do I find it difficult to turn down an offer of cocaine? • Do I need cocaine to have a good or even acceptable day? • Do I get angry or depressed when I am denied cocaine? • Do I constantly seek, use or think about cocaine? • Do I suffer from paranoia, depression, an intense craving for more cocaine, exhaustion, anxiety, mood swings, irritability, fatigue, depression or insomnia when I stop using cocaine suddenly?

Someone who could answer yes to any of the first four questions may be dependent upon cocaine. Someone who could answer yes to the second four questions is addicted to cocaine. If you answer yes to any of those eight questions, please seek help.

Is Your Child Abusing Inhalants?

Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids:

Over 600 common products can be used as inhalants. Many are easily available to children, including gasoline, glue, paint, polishes, window cleaners, lighter fluid, correction fluid, felt tip markers and aerosols containing hair spray, deodorant, whipped cream, and air freshener.

Defensiveness

Inhalants are quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, affecting the brain, lungs, liver and kidneys. The resulting “high” can last anywhere from a few minutes to an hour.

Withdrawal from family activities

What Is Inhalant Abuse? Inhalant abuse is the act of sniffing or inhaling a substance in order to experience mind-altering effects. Fumes or vapors may be inhaled (code words: “bagging”, “huffing”) directly from containers, from inside plastic bags placed over the head, or from cloth or clothing saturated with the substance.

Youth at Risk

Change in dress & friends

Chronic runny nose

School problems

Stumbling, shaky hands

Anxious behavior

Run-down condition

A tendency to manipulate

Sudden weight change

Lack of self-discipline

While the abuse of most drugs has declined over the last decade, the abuse of inhalants has increased. At least SEVEN MILLION CHILDREN between the ages of 5 and 17 have abused inhalants. Twenty-one percent of all 8th graders have experimented with some type of inhalant. Of these, 61% had used by grade 6. inhalant abuse seems to peak at age 13, but use of inhalants has been found in children as young as FIVE YEARS OLD.

Your Child May Be Using Inhalants.

Death can occur when a user breathes too deeply and inhales enough chemical fumes to pass out. This may lead to asphyxiation and/or cardiac arrest. If the user inhales a substance out of a plastic bag, there is danger of death by suffocation. There is also a high rate of suicide and violent death among inhalant abusers.

WARNING

Short-Term Effects: Nausea/Dizziness Sneezing/Coughing/Nosebleeds Lack of coordination Slurred speech Impaired judgement Rapid pulse/Irregular heartbeat Blurred vision Severe headaches Acute poisoning Depression Aggression/Hostility Hallucinations Paranoia

Whats The Law? In most states, it is illegal to sniff or be high from sniffing. It is also illegal to sell products to a minor for sniffing purposes. Check the laws in your state and inform your child. Inhalant users can be court-ordered to under-go treatment.

Long-Term Effects: Hepatitis Brain damage Bone marrow damage Liver damage Kidney damage/Renal failure Hearing & Visual impairment Violent assault, including murder Sudden death (heart failure) Ongoing hallucinations Lowered I.Q.

How To Fight Back EDUCATE YOURSELF: Learn the specific ways in which substances are inhaled and how children may conceal their inhalant abuse. Look for unusual amounts of empty aerosol or gas containers which may indicate abuse.

“Early inhalant use is clearly an indicator of high risk for multiple problems with school and other drugs.” Bob Dickinson Texas Commission on Alcohol & Drug Abuse

TALK WITH YOUR CHILD: Find out how much your child knows. Ask questions, but be careful not to give any “new ideas.” Since they are at risk, children need to be aware of the dangers of inhalant abuse in an age-appropriate way. As with any other drug, use of inhalants may be a cry for help. If you suspect your child is using drugs, get professional help immediately. KEEP THE LINES OF COMMUNICATION OPEN: Encourage your child to talk openly with you about problems, feelings, school and friends. Then make the time to talk on an ongoing basis. TEACH YOUR CHILD TO PRACTICE “REFUSAL SKILLS”: The offer of inhalants usually comes from a friend or an older child, so along with saying “No”, your child needs a list of positive alternatives and activities. Talk with your child and make a list of other options.

MDMA/ECSTASY is hyponatremia, a lack of balance between water and sodium in the body. Both of these conditions may result in painful side effects and possible death.

LONG-TERM EFFECTS

OvERDOSE

ongoing depression

If a person continues to use Molly, it becomes harder to achieve a high. As the body builds up tolerance to the drug, users must take more and more to get the same effect. This cycle of higher dosages and increasing tolerance leads to addiction. Longterm addiction to any dangerous substance is devastating and ruins people’s lives.

violent withdrawl symptoms

When a user introduces Molly to his or her system, its effects begin within 45 minutes. The drug causes the brain to artificially produce serotonin and dopamine, which alter consciousness, perception of surroundings, and mood. It is common for users to report having a false sense of calm, lowered anxiety levels, and a skewed view of the world around them. Molly also causes the user’s body to overact, causing high blood pressure, sweating, insomnia, and some very negative effects like nausea and uncontrollable teethgrinding.

permanent damage

If the psychological effects of using Molly don’t sound that bad to you, remember that a false sense of well-being can easily be your worst enemy. It causes you to overlook dangers that you would normally do your best to avoid, leading to injury to yourself and others. As with many other drugs, one of Molly’s greatest threats is what it can cause you to do while high on it.

IMMEDIATE EFFECTS

MDMA causes long-lasting damage to the brain’s serotonin system, which regulates the processing of information and emotions. Using this drug, even a few times, may result in permanent damage to one’s ability to learn, pay attention and remember. Users also suffer from difficulty sleeping and ongoing depression.

Every drug carries the possibility of overdose. Because production is unregulated, you never really know if you are taking the amount of Molly that you planned on. If the dosage is too high, you will suffer extreme hallucinations, heart trouble, organ failure, and possibly immediate death.

ONGOING CONSEqUENCES

LEGAL STATUS

Users come down from a Molly high after about six hours, but the problems don’t stop there. After taking Molly, a user faces a high risk of hyperthermia, a dangerous increase in the body’s temperature. Another well-known effect

Molly is a Schedule I drug. That means that it is absolutely illegal to sell, distribute, buy, ingest, or even own it. It’s in the same legal category as heroin and LSD. No matter what you think about its safety or effects,

If the dosage is too high, you will suffer extreme hallucinations, heart trouble, organ failure, and possibly immediate death.

you risk serious fines, treatment program requirements, and even jail time by having anything to do with Molly. It’s just not worth the damage that a drug conviction would do to your future.

FALSE hYpE One of the most dangerous things about Molly is the fact that so many people misrepresent its dangers. Well-known music stars include references to “Molly” in their songs, and by contrasting it with contaminated ecstasy, users try to convince young people that they have their safety in mind. Don’t be taken in by any claim that an illegal drug is safe—you can be 100% sure that it carries serious legal, health, and addiction consequences that will stretch far into the future... That is, if it does not kill you first.

Molly: Pure Ecstasy, Pure Danger Pamphlet

Emphasizes the serious side effects of Molly, both in the short- and long-term. It also covers the risks a person takes when ingesting an unregulated, untested substance and covers the very real possibility of addiction and overdose. English PB-DA221 Spanish PB-DA221-SP

ECSTASY

M DMA MOLLY

HOW HARMFUL CAN SOMETHING BE… ...with a wonderful name like “Ecstasy?” Read on and find out!

When Ecstasy wears off, the brain experiences a sudden lack of serotonin, which makes it hard to sleep, learn or remember. It also causes other nasty symptoms such as dehydration, nausea and paranoia. Ecstasy causes the body to release the chemical dopamine in large amounts as well. After Ecstasy leaves the body, the lack of dopamine can cause users to feel depressed and cranky. Ecstasy also causes hallucinations (imagined experiences that seem real). Having a hallucination is like leaving the real world, which can be terrifying. A user may hear voices, see things, or feel things that do not exist. It may cause users to act paranoid, upset or in ways they may not usually act.

Ecstasy is made of the illegal substance methylenedioxymethamphetamine, or MDMA, which combines a powerful stimulant with a hallucinogen. The stimulant in Ecstasy is similar to methamphetamine and causes permanent damage to the brain. It forces the chemical serotonin, which controls moods and pain, to be released in huge, unusual amounts. This causes the neurons in your body that store serotonin to be deformed or destroyed, harming your body and brain.

WHAT IS ALCOHOL?

SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF DRINKING

• Malnutrition and gastric illnesses

Alcohol is a drug that contains the chemical ethanol, or ethyl alcohol. This chemical is produced through the fermentation (the breakdown of sugars without oxygen) of fruits such as grapes and apples, as well grains and starches such as potatoes and cereals. Examples of alcohols include:

• Slower reactions and poor coordination

• Sexual problems in men and women

• Heavy sweating

• Beer and malt liquor

• Lower heart rate

• Wine

• Slowed breathing

• Liquor (whiskey, vodka, etc.)

• Anxiety, restlessness

• “Wine coolers”—fruit-flavored drinks

• Mental confusion, memory loss

• Liqueurs

• Coma

Alcohol will stunt your growth. It slows the rapid bone growth that occurs in young bodies and causes decreased bone density. Alcohol harms the liver so the body cannot absorb the calcium it needs to make your bones strong. In addition, women who are pregnant must not drink any alcohol, as it can be passed to the baby through the umbilical cord and seriously harm the child’s growth. Alcohol use during pregnancy is the #1 cause of nonhereditary mental retardation and causes lifelong hyperactive behavior, deformities and learning disabilities.

• Blurry or double vision • Nausea and vomiting • Lowered reasoning ability • Doing or saying things you regret

• Death HOW DOES ALCOHOL WORK BIOLOGICALLY?

e on Drug Abu

Alcohol is a depressant. It slows the function of the brain, numbs pain, makes the drinker sleepy, releases the brain’s “feel-good” chemical dopamine and increases the level of opioid peptides. This results in a euphoric, happy state of mind that reduces anxiety. As a person drinks more, the central nervous system slows down dangerously. Over time, alcohol causes neuroadaptation — permanent changes in the brain that significantly harms a person.

LONG-TERM HEALTH CONSEQUENCES OF USING ALCOHOL Long-term use of alcohol can wreck a person’s health. Alcohol can and will kill anyone who drinks too much or for too long. Every effect of alcohol is more damaging in teenagers than it is in adults. This is because the brain does not stop developing until the mid-twenties, making younger people more likely to experience brain alteration. In addition, most alcohol-related diseases progress more rapidly in women than in men. Heavy or long-term drinking causes irreversible, often fatal damage to the body including: • Liver diseases • Heart disease and stroke • Brain cell death • Cancer of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, breast, pancreas, liver, colon and rectum • Decreased bone density • Damage to eyes and skin

These individuals must drink more and more every day to experience the same effects they once felt. It is a true, severe addiction complete with painful withdrawal symptoms such as tremors, hallucinations and convulsions. The scariest part? It can happen to anyone. LEGAL CONSEQUENCES OF DRINKING ALCOHOL It is no wonder that alcohol is illegal for people under 21. It is a dangerous drug, the most abused substance in America and one of the most common addictions in the world. It is illegal for anyone to drive under the influence of alcohol because of the way it impairs the senses. For minors, penalties for buying, possessing or drinking alcohol include: • Juvenile detention • Probation • Fines up to several thousand dollars depending on the state and charge • Losing your driver’s license

ALCOHOLISM

• Jail time

Alcohol is addictive. People who begin drinking before age 15 are four times more likely to develop alcohol dependence than those who begin drinking at age 21. 15.1 million American adults have an alcohol abuse problem. Alcoholism is a real and serious problem that worsens over time. Alcoholics continue to drink in spite of the real problems alcohol causes in their lives because they are mentally, emotionally, and physically dependent on the drug to function and feel normal.

• Mandatory alcohol rehabilitation

“

It is a highly addictive and dangerous substance that may seem fun, but has destroyed the lives of many. The smartest and healthiest choice to make is to choose not to drink alcohol.

ALCOHOL PREVENTION DrivingResouRces Under Informed Parents Are The Best Defense

the Influence: A Crash Course Pamphlet Parents - The Antidrug:

Teen Alcohol Use is Epidemic

While use of marijuana, cocaine, and other illegal drugs has decreased, alcohol abuse by young people remains extremely high. About half of junior and senior high school students have used alcohol. More han one-third report drinking alcohol weekly. Some are binge drinkers who report consuming fifteen or more alcoholic drinks per week. These young drinkers are at high risk of becoming addicted to alcohol and other drugs.

The Partnership at Drugfree.org: 855-378-4373 www.drugfree.org www.timetotalk.org

National Institute on Drug Abuse - Parenting Resources:

Informs young people that adding alcohol and other drugs to their inexperience with driving makes getting behind the wheel especially dangerous.

Peer pressure is the most significant reason young people consume alcohol. The age at which peer pressure is applied is younger than ever. Many seventh graders are subjected to the pressure to drink alcohol. Some young people drink for the same reason adults do - to feel good. The Washington Post reported, twenty-five percent of young people who drink said they do so to get high, thirty-one percent reported drinking alone, and forty-one percent said they drink when they’re upset because it made them feel better. Those who use alcohol alone or drink to counter bad feelings run a high risk of becoming alcoholics.

Key Players: Parents

ome parents say they’re relieved that their children use alcohol instead of other drugs. This a dangerous and harmful misconception. Changing passive attitudes and providing parents with the facts about alcohol and drugs are the first steps in drug prevention. Concerned parents must play a major role in educating children about drinking, drugs and driving. It must be realized that the fight against drugs begins at home with clear rules, healthy values and a good example of drug-free living.

You’ve probably seen people drinking on T V or in movies. It can look really fun, but it’s not. Alcohol is a depressant drug. It slows down your brain and makes it hard to think or act right.

Alcohol irritates the stomach and can cause painful ulcers, bleeding, and even cancer!

When people drink they lose control of themselves. They make bad decisions that can hurt them. Their feelings go up and down, happy and sad, like a roller-coaster. Alcohol is so strong it makes doing easy things–even walking!–hard.

kidneys When kidneys get hurt you lose stuff you need from your blood. You get really weak and tired. You can’t live without them!

When people drink a lot they throw up and feel really bad.

ADDICTION & REFUSAL WHEN TO SAY NO

What To Say NEW! When You REFUSAL Want To Say No SKILLS Pamphlet

Sometimes it can be hard to tell if “no” is the right answer, especially when you’re around lots of people and you want to feel included. This is when you have to be true to yourself and determine if the situation is really one you want to be part of. Does something about it make you uneasy or uncomfortable? If so, chances are that the right answer to whatever you’re being asked to do is “no.”

YOU CAN SAY NO It’s natural to want to fit in and to be “part of the crowd.” This may be easy for some people, while for others it takes more effort. Being “part of the crowd” isn’t always a good thing, though. Sometimes, when the crowd is doing something you know is wrong, you may feel pressure to join in. Others might try to convince you to drink alcohol, try drugs, tobacco or have sex, even if you don’t want to do any of those things. The good news is that you have the right to refuse to do those things!

SAY NO

Drug Abuse and Addiction USE HUMO

Sometimes all it takes is a simple, direct, and strong response to fend off questions about drugs or alcohol. Your direct response can also be low key and laid back. If you don’t make a big deal of the offer, you’ll seem more sure of yourself and others will be less likely to persist. Good Examples: “No.” “No, thanks.” “I don’t drink/do drugs.” “I don’t want to.”

R There is a difference between drug abuse and drug addiction. Drug abuse (or substance Good Examp les: “No,is the frequent and excessive use of a abuse) the brain thanks. cells I need drugs/drink I can get.” “No, I neverall on days do drug orthatother substance.

In drug addiction the urge to use becomes more and more powerful until it is irrisistable. Addiction can be mental, physical, or both. Those addicted to a drug will have intense cravings and will compulsively seek and use the drug, regardless of the consequences.

CHANGE THE SUBJECT

Walking away is one of the best ways to remove yourself from a dangerous or risky situation. It’s not confrontational and if necessary, it can be combined with an excuse to make the refusal easier.

People can be easily distracted. Sometimes all it takes is a quick mention of something else to switch the focus away from an offer of drugs/alcohol. Good Examples: “Did you hear that that new band is coming to town?” “What are you doing this weekend?”

prescription medications, or even household products such as paint thinner. Some drugs are more likely to cause physical dependence than others, but regardless of the type of drug or the level of abuse or addiction, recovery is possible and help is available.

Good examples: If someone offers you drugs or alcohol, leave to go get snacks or a soda. Excuse yourself to meet a friend as soon as you’re invited to partake.

The particular symptoms of addiction vary from drug to drug, but common signs and symptoms of drug abuse or addiction include:

• Needing the drug to feel “normal” or to deal with problems • Failed attempts to quit using • Always making sure one has a supply of the drug available • Intense cravings • Problems with work, relationships or finances due to drug use • Engaging in dangerous activities that place yourself or others at risk for harm while using the drug • Withdrawal symptoms – nausea, shakes, sweats, severe aches and pains, insomnia, agitation, depression and even hallucinations or psychosis – when not using the drug • Placing the drug at a higher priority than one’s health, family or friends

The statistics are startling and clear. By senior year, three out of every four high school students have consumed alcohol. Fifty percent of 12th graders and 20% of 8th graders have admitted to being drunk at least once.

National Institute on Drug Abuse - Parenting Resources: www.drugabuse.gov/parents/

Underage drinking is a factor in 41% of teen automobile accidents and 32% of all teen driving deaths. Under-age drinking is the number one killer of young people and is directly linked to an estimated 5,000 deaths of people under 21 each year, as well as thousands of other injuries.

Teenagers naturally go to parties; parents naturally worry about their children’s safety. Some parents, in an attempt to control the situation, allow teens to hold underage drinking parties in their homes. This is called “Social Hosting” and in an increasing number of cities and states around the country, it’s illegal. Most states have a social hosting law which defines the legal consequences.

Social Hosting is providing and/or serving alcohol to a young person who is under the minimum age of 21. Social hosting can take place in a party-like atmosphere or by any adult providing alcohol to teenagers and their peers for them to drink. It can even extend to parents and homeowners who are not on the premises and/or did not provide the alcohol.

Hosting parties for underage drinkers sends the message to teens that it’s okay to break the law. The mistaken idea is that you are providing a safe environment in which teens can drink, when actually there is no such thing as safe underage drinking.

Inhalant abuse is the act of sniffing or inhaling a substance in order to experience mind-altering effects. Fumes or vapors may be inhaled (code words: “bagging”, “huffing”) directly from containers, from inside plastic bags placed over the head, or from cloth or clothing saturated with the substance.

While the abuse of most drugs has declined over the last decade, the abuse of inhalants has increased.

At least SEVEN MILLION CHILDREN between the ages of 5 and 17 have abused inhalants. Twenty-one percent of all 8th graders have experimented with some type of inhalant. Of these, 61% had used by grade 6. inhalant abuse seems to peak at age 13, but use of inhalants has been found in children as young as FIVE YEARS OLD.

Peer pressure is the most significant reason young people consume alcohol. The age at which peer pressure is applied is younger than ever. Many seventh graders are subjected to the pressure to drink alcohol. Some young people drink for the same reason adults do - to feel good. The Washington Post reported twenty-five percent of young people who drink said they do so to get high, thirty-one percent reported drinking alone, and forty-one percent said they drink when they’re upset because it made them feel better. Those who use alcohol alone or drink to counter bad feelings run a high risk of becoming alcoholics.

ResouRces Parents - The Antidrug:

While use of marijuana, cocaine, and other illegal drugs has decreased, alcohol abuse by young people remains extremely high. Nearly 75% of high school students have used alcohol. More than one-third report drinking alcohol weekly. Some are binge drinkers who report consuming fifteen or more alcoholic drinks per week. These young drinkers are at high risk of becoming addicted to alcohol and other drugs.

STRESS & DEPRESSION

• Exercise. Running, going for a walk or bike ride, or even dancing around your room to loud music are all great ways to let off steam. Just about any kind of physical activity will help. You’ll be amazed at how much better you feel.

What is Anger? Anger has been around for as long as people have. It causes changes in the body that helped early humans respond to danger. Anger prepares our bodies for self-defense and if necessary, to attack. These are some of the changes we may notice when we start feeling angry:

• Take deep breaths. • Count slowly to 10.

CoNTRol

• Our heartbeats and breathing get faster.

• We feel warm, because more blood flows to our heads. • Our muscles tense. • We clench our fists or jaws. • We get knots in our stomachs. • In general, we feel ready for a fight.

• Close your eyes and think about something that makes you feel calm and happy. • Draw or write in a journal about how you feel. • Distract yourself for a while by reading a book or going to a movie. You’ll probably feel calmer after getting your mind off what’s bothering you. • Talk about how you’re feeling with a close friend or an adult you trust.

These physical changes were important in a world where people might face life-threatening danger everyday. Now that most of us don’t need to fight wild animals regularly in order to survive, we need to learn to keep our anger under control.

More About Cooling Off www.intheknowzone.com/manageanger/cooloff

Once you’ve calmed down, you’ll be able to see the situation more clearly. This will help you with the next step: figuring out what made you angry in the first place.

Since we’re all different, one of the first steps is noticing what happens in your body when you get angry. Maybe you can’t sit still, or your face tenses up into an expression of annoyance.

• Try to resolve the conflict by talking things out with the person you’re upset with.

Conflict Resolution You may want to set up a specific time to talk about the problem. Agree that you both want to resolve things peacefully and avoid a fight. When you get together, here are some steps to take: • From your point of view, calmly explain to the other person what they did and how it made you feel. Ask them to hear you out. Try not to blame or attack—this will usually make things worse. Starting sentences with “I feel . . .” will help.

• Allow them to tell their side of the story. Hear them out—don’t interrupt. Hopefully they can also say what they’d like to see happen. • Even if you don’t want the same thing, try to find some common ground, such as wanting to avoid a fight, or save your friendship.

Once you understand exactly what upset you, you have several options: • If there’s no way to prevent the situation that made you angry—a traffic

LLC lty Publishing, ucation Specia 55 sh.com • #PB-PS 78 • www.ESPubli

• Change your attitude. Sometimes if we think about it, we realize that anger is coming from negative or unrealistic thoughts. Instead of thinking, “Things never go my way,” think, “I can’t always expect to get exactly what I want. Life doesn’t always go the way I’d like it to.” Which is true, by the way.

• Clearly explain what you want to see happen and why. For example, maybe you want an apology, or a promise that the person won’t do it again.

Cooling Off to Avoid a Meltdown

Managing Anger: Don’t Let It Control You Pamphlet

jam, or a group of guys who hang out in the hallway and hassle you when you walk by, for example—you can try to avoid it altogether.

Whatever it is, take it as a sign that you need to calm down before you fly off the handle. Here are a few good ways to do that:

there is a disagreement, one person wins and the other loses. That’s not true. By compromising, you can usually come up with a solution that offers something for everybody. • Both parties should say honestly what they like and don’t like about each potential solution. • Agree to stand by the solution that comes closest to meeting everyone’s needs. If all else fails, you may need to agree to disagree, and/or walk away from the person or situation. You can feel good knowing that you expressed your feelings and tried to resolve the problem. Whatever you do, don’t give in to violence. Some people think that avoiding fights is a sign of weakness. It’s exactly the opposite. It takes guts to do what’s right and not care what other people think. Walking away from a fight is the right thing to do. We often can’t change other people or situations that make us angry. But we can learn to control our reactions to them. What’s in it for us? A lot of self-respect. More About Conflict Resolution www.intheknowzone.com/manageanger/resolve

SUBSTANCE ABUSE TO SUICIDE...

SUICIDE IS NEV

Every year 44,000 people die by suicide. That’s about 120 people a day. 9.3 million American adults report having suicidal thoughts. However, people with a substance abuse disorder are 6 times more likely to commit suicide than the general population. In fact, suicide is a leading cause of death among people who abuse alcohol and drugs. Studies show that 33.4% of suicide deaths tested positive for alcohol, 23.8% for antidepressants, and 20.0% for opiates, including heroin and prescription painkillers.

Avoiding Suicide Presentation Display

Why are people with substance abuse disorders more at risk of suicide?

People think drugs or alcohol may alleviate short term depression, anxiety or other mental health issues. But, in the long term, these issues only get worse with substance abuse. Alcohol is a depressant. It acts on the brain the same way drugs do- chemically. These chemicals change the way the brain works, making depressive episodes more severe. Drugs and alcohol add to it by increasing negative thoughts and self-destructive behavior. Drinking alcohol or taking drugs can loosen inhibitions - contributing to bad judgement, and leading to impulsive decisions without any thought to other options or outcomes and can end in tragedy.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROBLEMS Mental health issues and substance use problems share common causes: brain chemistry, family history, and past trauma are all triggers for both. People who abuse drugs or alcohol often experience dramatic life changes - starting or stopping treatment, relapse, jail time, and/or loss of family. Making them especially vulnerable to suicide. Addiction is a mental illness. It feeds negatively into a person’s mental health. Individuals get caught in a cycle of hopelessness. Job loss, relationship issues, and legal issues are all consequences of addiction, and when those consequences and life changes combine, for some they feel they only have two choices: continued drug use or suicide. People in treatment for substance abuse disorders are the most at risk. They are at a point where their addiction has spiraled out of control. They enter treatment when life crises may be occurring and they may be at the peak of depressive episodes.
