If you are thinking of going out drinking with your friends, just make sure that you think twice before you drink.  There are many hidden dangers in drinking that a lot of people neglect to think about.  For instance, those people who go out drinking and think that it’s cool to get drunk are putting their life as well as the lives of the people around them in danger.  The first mistake that young people make is the decision to go out with their friends with the sole purpose of wanting to become intoxicated.  It’s like they make that their goal for the evening, thinking, "I will not be able to have a good time unless I’m drunk."  But if you think about it, what kind of a "good time" are you really having if you can’t even remember what you’re doing, if you have no control over your mental faculties?  I think that this issue begs the question, "What is it about alcohol that so many people are turning to it?"  Alcohol, for many, is a way to AVOID dealing with whatever problems are plaguing them at the time.  It is a cowardly thing.  Drinking alcohol in moderation is one thing, but drinking just for drinkings sake is quite another that needs to be looked into further and addressed as such.
