Learn Your Lesson in College

For me, being a college freshman was amazing—meeting tons of new people, going to fun parties, going to classes seemed novel (for the first couple weeks of the semester), basically being free. After my parents got me settled in my dorm and we said our good-byes my Dad said to me, “don’t let school get in the way of your education.” I laughed and didn’t think much about that sentiment until the end of my sophomore year. It was probably some of the best advice he had ever given me. Part of the reason college is so fun is because you are able to explore the world on your own (but still under the umbrella of your parent’s support). Binge drinking became a huge factor in my life. Every weekend there was at least 1 person taken to the hospital to have their stomach pumped from drinking too much. Not only that, but as the years went by more and more people started using club drugs as well as binge drinking. These substances are super dangerous and if used to excess can even impact individual’s education by being a catalyst to their learning disability.

Currently, two years after graduating I still have close friends who binge drink regularly. Hanging out at friend’s apartments and they inevitably will make fun of me for not wanting to continue to loose in quarters. I respond, “I’m all ready drunk, I don’t need to play more”. They usually laugh and call me a post grad, because that would never be a reason for them to stop playing a drinking game. Binge drinking can lead to alcoholism, which can result in dementia. If you or a loved one suffers from binge drinking, talk to a specialist today about finding help.
