So this will be my first time getting drunk drunk, and my friend is a year older than me and has done it several times before. I could have him watch me, but there may be a chance that he’d be high/drunk too, so what are some things to watch out for and consider during my first time getting drunk if I’m able to go to his house?

    1. Dont do drugs with people you don’t trust.

    2. If you think someone is going to try to get handsy . Make it very clear before drug use that you say no. (Or yes if that’s your choice). But make the decision sober and verbally say it.

    3. Don’t mix drugs. Including alcohol.

    4. Educate yourself on the substances. Safe and appropriate dosage. And expectations of effects, and how long it will last.

    5. Be an adult before taking drugs.

    If you are a teenager. Honestly it’s not worth it. It puts you at high risk for assault and criminal activity. It also has more damaging effects on your brain.

    Just hold off.

    1. If you are with others who do drugs and you don’t want to . You can always say “not my thing, no thanks”

    “Tried it before and didn’t care for the effects”

    If they are persistent “Bro, respect my decision. I said it’s not my thing”

    “I’m taking meds that don’t mix with it. It could literally put me in a coma or the hospital”.

    1. Avoid people who pressure you. Definitely don’t hang out with them again. Your time and attention is valuable. Don’t give it to those undeserving who dont respect your autonomy.
