Drugs

Post a new topicby Guest on Sun Jun 30, 2002 2:29 pm


I'm 14 now and I've had bi polar disorder for the all 14 years...not long right? Well I was wondering, if I were ever to do a type of drug such as alcohol would the effects be very hazerdous? would I filp, would I rage really bad? how bad would the effect be?

The immediate effects would probably not be as bad as the long term effects. People with Bipolar Disorder are at very increased risk to deveolop alcoholism or drug abuse problems. This is even more true if there is a family history of the same. One experience would not be as bad as the accumulation of experiences. I would strongly advise against experimentation.
