FIRST, The Most Important Rule of all... BE OF AGE!
ALMERA Heavily Condemns Underage Drinking..
Before Drinking
- Eat and drink water before and while drinking alcohol. Try setting a reminder on your phone.
- Set a drink limit before you start drinking and assess as you go. Know when you’ve had enough and say so.
- Be aware of how alcohol affects you.
- Arrange a safe ride home before you start drinking.
- Try to reduce the number of times you use alcohol each week.
After Drinking
- If you’re playing drinking games, try playing with non-alcoholic drinks. Don’t try to keep up with other drinkers.
- Finish one drink before starting another. Topping up drinks makes it harder to keep track of how many you’ve had.
- Only get in the car with a sober driver – even better, decide who will be the designated driver before you go out.
- Keep your drink with you at all times. If you do leave your drink unattended or have any doubts about it, make or order a new one.
- Drink in good company – keep a good friend around, look out for each other and know what to do if one of you has had too much to drink.
- Keep an eye out for each other – if you see a friend becoming too drunk, make sure they drink water, eat food, and stop drinking alcohol. You can also help them avoid being reckless or hurting themselves.
