Some Truths About Substance Abuse

“Whatever causes a problem is a problem.” —Father Joseph Martin

• People drink/use drugs to increase pleasure and/or decrease pain, not because they like the taste. Some people like lemonade, but I doubt you’ll see them drinking 12 lemonades in succession.

• If you have said “I can quit anytime” but haven’t, you probably can’t.

• If you have ever said to yourself, “I need to slow down or quit this stuff,” something is wrong. This thought never crosses a social user’s mind.

• The use of mood-altering substances takes away reasoning, causing you to operate on emotions not intellect.

• Yes, you can get addicted to beer. It has alcohol in it.

• No one is slightly addicted. That’s like being slightly pregnant.

• You stop growing emotionally when you begin to abuse chemical substances.
