Lesson Overview

7.3 – Recognizing Substance Use Risks: Substances like alcohol, vaping products, or drugs can harm the brain and body, especially while still growing. Use may start out of curiosity or stress relief, but the effects can quickly lead to dependence and risky situations. Substances weaken judgment, making accidents, dangerous choices, or conflicts more likely. They also impact sleep, mood, memory, and school or work performance. Recognizing early signs such as hiding behavior, stronger cravings, or losing interest in hobbies helps you stay aware. Asking for help when pressure becomes strong shows wisdom and strength. Choosing healthy coping skills supports emotional well-being without putting your body in danger. Protecting your health today creates freedom and opportunity in the future.
