OverviewGenetics. Peer Pressure. Environment. Why Do Young People Succumb to Substance Abuse? What is the Impact? How Can It Be Avoided? We see alcohol and drug abuse depicted on TV and in the movies. Our parents often drink when they socialize. And states are legalizing drugs. It is not unusual for us to know someone addicted to prescription drugs--part of the opioid epidemic we hear about in the news. So, with alcohol and drugs all around us, how can we avoid them? And what does it really take to stay substance-free? The answer is simple: Be prepared. Understand the dangers and consequences. If we want our lives to be the best they can be, we need to take care of our bodies and our minds. Using drugs and alcohol keeps us from doing this. And if you are one of the billions of people with a genetic predisposition, even one drink, or using drugs one time can lead to a lifetime of addiction.
