My partner Wade Lansley and I decided to make a poster and a game. Our game was beer pong so if you got the answer right you had a shot of getting the ping pong ball into the cups and if you did you got to drink the cordial.
What were the biggest things you learned while completing this task?
Effects of drinking on men’s mental health and how they affect your reaction time by slowing it down. The relationship between alcohol and mental health is complex. Some people may drink alcohol to relax or help cope with daily stresses; however, alcohol is a depressant drug that can cause anxiety and increase stress. Alcohol can negatively affect thoughts, feelings, and actions, and contribute to developing or worsening existing mental health issues over time.
What one piece of advice would you pass on to young teenagers above all else? Why?
Young people should not drink alcohol because younger people are at greater risk of alcohol-related harm than adults. As the brain keeps developing into the mid-’20s, drinking alcohol as a teenager can greatly increase the risk of damage to the developing brain. It can also lead to problems with alcohol later in life. if you drink it often the brain will think it is a good thing to do as you will get addicted to the alcohol.
pledge
I promise to never drink alcohol in no more than the recommended guides lines which are four standard drinks.
because many people could get inured that if I get drunk I will not have full control of my body and I will make bad choices
I will do this by not being peer pressured because that would be the main reason if I would drink.
