Drugs can cause strange or silly behavior and make it difficult to know what you're doing. Different drugs like marijuana, cocaine, and burundanga have various medical and psychological effects such as red eyes, high blood pressure, hallucinations, and difficulty speaking. While some drugs have medical purposes, drug abuse is a serious problem especially for teenagers and affects individuals' relationships and family as well as society. Prevention through education on risks and alternatives is important.

Alcohol
Alcohol is created through the fermentation of grains, fruits, and vegetables. While made from natural ingredients, alcohol affects the central nervous system and can have serious negative health impacts when consumed in large quantities. Drinking alcohol can lead to diseases like fetal alcohol syndrome, alcoholic neuropathy, and alcoholic cerebellar degeneration. For teenagers in particular, drinking alcohol is very risky and often begins due to peer pressure, as their bodies and brains are still developing. There are several non-profit organizations that help people struggling with alcohol addiction and educate about the dangers of excessive drinking.
Proyecto alchohol con amaia
1) Drinking alcohol is dangerous for both children and adults as alcohol is a drug that is commonly abused by teens. Many children have their first drink at a young age, sometimes as young as 10 or 11 years old.
2) Alcohol affects a person's ability to think clearly and impacts balance, which can lead to trouble walking. It also harms major organs like the brain, heart, and liver.
3) To prevent alcohol abuse, people should avoid keeping alcohol in their home, situations where drinking is encouraged, and should make new friends who do not focus on alcohol.
Is Alcoholism Hereditary?
While genetics may increase one's risk of alcoholism, it is not the sole factor. The development of alcoholism can be influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, social, and psychological factors. Studies have found a genetic component but have not identified a single gene that causes alcoholism. Having genes linked to alcoholism does not determine if one will become an alcoholic. It just increases susceptibility depending on other risk influences in one's life.
PREVENTION OF ALCOHOLISM
This document discusses the prevention of alcoholism for a healthy society. It notes that alcoholism is a medical illness caused by a variety of social, psychological, and genetic factors. Preventing alcoholism requires addressing its social and psychological contributors, combating myths about alcoholism, understanding the health effects and stages of alcohol dependence, developing a treatment plan, and providing community support for those struggling with addiction and their families. The overall message is that a collaborative effort is needed to promote healthy lifestyles and prevent the personal and societal harms of alcoholism.
Fetal alcohol syndrome treatment2
The document discusses fetal alcohol spectrum disorders which can result from drinking alcohol during pregnancy. It describes the range of effects from mild intellectual disabilities or learning problems to severe birth defects. Early intervention services can help address some effects by providing therapies, medical care, and life skills training. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms but there is no cure for the physical and mental issues caused by prenatal alcohol exposure.
Alcoholism
Alcoholism is one of the oldest human problems and is characterized by uncontrolled alcohol consumption. It causes physical, psychological, and economic harm not just to the alcoholic but also to their family and children through issues like domestic abuse and trauma. While only 3% of alcoholics are homeless, the other 97% still struggle with its devastating consequences like problems at work and broken families and relationships. There are over 140 million people worldwide with drinking problems, and although alcoholism cannot be cured, treatment programs and family support can help people overcome their struggles.
Teen addiction prevent alcohol and drug abuse (mental health guru)

Drinking alcohol in moderation is acceptable, but excessive or binge drinking can lead to serious health and social problems, especially for young people. Regular heavy drinking can cause both physical and psychological addiction over time. Physically, alcohol is toxic to the liver and other organs and can increase risks of various cancers and diseases. Pregnant women should avoid alcohol completely due to risks of fetal alcohol syndrome in the baby. Psychologically, long-term excessive drinking is linked to increased anxiety, depression, violence and suicide. Moderation is key - drinking responsibly in limited amounts is safer than uncontrolled binge drinking.

Alcohol affects many parts of the body. It initially causes an energizing effect but is actually a depressant that slows the central nervous system. As more alcohol is consumed, it impairs judgment, motor skills, and can lead to intoxication or even loss of consciousness. The liver works to break down alcohol but drinking too much overwhelms this system. Long term heavy use can damage the liver and brain. Fetal alcohol syndrome may also result if a pregnant woman drinks.

Drug abuse affects people worldwide and causes significant health and social issues. According to a 2020 report, around 284 million people aged 15-64 used drugs, a 26% increase over the previous decade. Drugs of abuse fall into categories like depressants, stimulants, and hallucinogens and are ingested, inhaled, smoked, injected or snorted. Both immediate and long-term effects of drug abuse include cognitive impairment, accidents, neurological disorders, cardiovascular issues, dependence, and transmission of diseases like HIV/AIDS.

Signs of drug addiction include feeling the need for drugs regularly, maintaining a supply, failing to stop using, and risky behaviors while under the influence. Drug addiction affects health, social life, work, family, and finances. Repeated drug use alters the brain's reward pathways and communication between neurons. Treatments include detox, counseling, self-help groups, treatment programs, education, and prevention of relapse.
