Research has found more than 40 percent of college students reported at least one symptom of alcohol abuse or dependence. One study has estimated more than 500,000 full-time students at four-year colleges suffer injuries each year related in some way to drinking, and about 1,700 die in such accidents."
While all of the above (on MSN) is disturbing, I think that 40% of college kids are maybe on their way to alcoholism is pretty incredible!
I guess I was one of those statistics... and ended up coming here for help some 30 years later!!
I'll have 30 days this Thurs. I really am feeling better, sleeping better (and others have noticed I've been more "here"; I guess before I wasn't all here - ugh). I think the sleep part is Wonderful! Actually have slept thru the night the past week like NORMAL people do! Wooo hooo!
Anyway, good luck to you all!
