DRUGS & ALCOHOL
'DRINK BECAUSE YOU ARE HAPPY, BUT NEVER BECAUSE YOU ARE MISERABLE.'
↳ G.K. CHESTERTON
As you move into adulthood, whether or not you use substances is ultimately your choice. Like most things, there are more choices than just 'yes' or 'no'.
A better question to ask might be 'how'. How can you have fun without regretting it the next day? How can you have new experiences while minimising risk? What does a good time mean to you?
It's better to ask these kind of questions beforehand, and then make choices accordingly.
