Just Say No to Partying Alone
December 11th, 2006 by Alex
A study released late last week suggests that those with social drug tendencies will be a lot better off, both physically and mentally, then those who use alone.
Whether it’s drinking, cigarettes or smoking weed - social and physical drawbacks can be directly linked to those who party alone. The study involved 6,000 students from California & Oregon who were surveyed about their substance use over a 9 year period.
Here’s what researchers found - people who drank, used cigarettes or smoked marijuana alone were:
- less physically healthy
- less likely to graduate from college
- more likely to have substance abuse issues
It’s not looking too good for the loners out there. So, moral of the story is to get messed up with your friends and everything will be A Ok.
