  • Im young. Is drinking really that bad for my health? Yes. Studies have shown that alcohol use by youth and young adults increases the risk of both fatal and nonfatal injuries. Research has also shown that youth who use alcohol before age 15 are five times more likely to become alcohol dependent than adults who begin drinking at age 21. Other consequences of youth alcohol use include increased risky sexual behaviors, poor school performance, and increased risk of suicide and homicide.
  • Teenage girls with a Blood Alcohol level of .05-.10 are 54 times more likely to suffer a single vehicle crash than their non-drinking counterparts.
  • Approximately 6.6 million children under the age of 18 live in households with at least one parent who abuses alcohol.
  • After an episode of heavy drinking, as the alcohol begins to wear off, a small withdrawal syndrome can take place; symptoms of this syndrome can include stomach upset, early morning awakening (a type of insomnia), headache, and electrolyte imbalance, which often makes people feel sick.
