Hangover

All my life I 've chosen a substance to cope with my problems. I remember the first time I 'd ever heard of someone using substances as abuse. Seeing someone look sick, feeling so hurt inside that they felt the need to drink away their sorrows, cut away the pain or even choose needles and pills as a way out; But it seems easier to prolong ones pain, Because I knew going through withdrawal would just about kill me. I tempered the first time using Alcohol, I 'd just had my heart broken and I…

has deadly consequences. When you hit your head really hard you can’t remember things, you slur your speech, and you lose motor control, plus you get tired. There are more symptoms, which most symptoms of brain injury are the same as an alcohol hangover. Alcohol is very dangerous because it impairs judgment, makes stupidity and reckless decisions look fun and or smart. Another drug people love to mess with is Meth (Methamphetamine), which can thicken out blood and kill you so can it’s two…

“Are you serious?” “It’s true, I’ve never drunk before.” Sitting in the lifeguard office with some college age coworkers, I let the big secret slip. “Why not, it’s fun? “People get so friendly when drunk. That’s why I love parties.” “Don’t you want to get a feel for drinking before college?” In health class, teachers warned about the peer pressure at parties and painted pictures of big, hulking trouble-makers pressing beer cans in our hands and threatening us if we didn’t chug or circles…

John Dollard (1900 -1980), grew up in a very modest household, with his father being a railroad engineer and his mother a former schoolteacher (M.H Olson, 2011).He received his undergraduate from the university of Wisconsin in 1922, and his PhD in Sociology at the University of Chicago in 1931 (Ewen, R.B, 1998). He studied psychoanalysis at the Berlin Institute in Germany (1931-1932), and taught Anthropology at Yale University. In 1935, he became a research associate at the Institute of Human…

The answer is their horns, which are considered to be a valuable ingredient in some forms of Traditional Asian Medicine. There has also been an increase in demand for rhino horn in Vietnam where it is dubbed as a “hangover cure.” The rhino horn is ground into powder and the supposed “medicinal benefits” of rhino horn include the ability to cure gout, fever, headaches, anxiety, boils, nausea, food poisoning, and some Vietnamese even believe, cancer. As well as its use…

Hawaiian Punch full of Rum and something else. Boy, did I have one hell of a hangover the following day! Another guy walked into the barracks later that afternoon and asked if anyone wanted to rent motorbikes and drive over to Phoenix City, Alabama (which was considered to be the danger zone). Deciding to get out for a while, we went to the bus stop and took a ride to the bike rental shop in downtown Columbus, Georgia. Taking off over the bridge to Alabama to see what all the fuss was about, we…

Substance abuse occurs everywhere at home, outside, and at work. Substance abuse is a pattern of harmful use of any substance for mood-altering purposes (T.B.). Some of the substances are alcohol, drugs, prescription or over-the-counter medicine, and smoking. I’m going to talk about how the substance abuse effect work place, and how should business stop substance abuse. Regardless of the size of a business, it is still necessary for owners, managers and directors to be aware of the effects of…

There once was a girl, a girl with bright blood red hair. She was beautiful, stunning, and her name was Cleo. Cleo Redfield was her given name. On the outside she seemed like a happy normal girl, but inside, she had many dark feelings. Because of her beauty she was tormented everyday by other girls and all the guys. They were attracted to her like moths to a light and she didn't like all the attention. At home, it wasn't any better. She was the oldest and had to look after her three year old…

It was over. The Empire had lost both their leader and strongest weapon, not to mention some of their finest troops. Sure, they still had Admirals spread throughout the galaxy, each probably with their own fleet, but without someone there to hold their hands and make sure they all got along, it was doubtful that they would be able to continue in a war. Years of the Rebellion's fighting, of losing allies and friends, had finally paid off. The Empire was done. A low groan dragged Luke out of his…

When the email appeared in my inbox, I knew it was bad. The subject heading read: “Wanted: Matt Kennamer - Attempted Murder”. I clicked the link and his old mug shot appeared on the screen. It was him alright - a picture from a previous arrest for a D.U.I., his face swollen - the eyes bloodshot. A shit eating grin that said ‘I’ve been here before and I’ll do it again. Fuck you, these walls won’t hold me.’ He’d bailed out receiving a fine and substance abuse classes. This time was different.…
