ADDICTION RECOVERY DURING HIGHER EDUCATION
College students are using drugs and alcohol at a higher rate than young adults of the same age who don’t attend school. Recent studies indicate that more than half of full-time college students ages 18-22 drank alcohol in the past month and that nearly 45% of college students have used an illicit drug.
There’s no denying the great benefit young adults stand to gain from attending schools of higher education, but it would be unwise to dismiss the use of alcohol and drugs as a normal part of the experience. Every year students struggle with academic performance and become injured or die as a result of substance use disorder.
Written by the Intelligent.com Higher Education Team, the ADDICTION RECOVERY DURING HIGHER EDUCATION guide covers which substances pose the greatest risks to young adults, the potential consequences of being caught, and how to get help.
