We've heard a lot about how alcohol and drugs make you feel - for a very short time:

Euphoria
On top of the world
Carefree
Powerful
Relaxed
In control

We know the costs of substance abuse to society and business are staggering:

Lost productivity
Increased illness and injury
Increased crime
Life style changes
Lost careers

Perhaps you've heard about some side effects which often last longer than the "desired" drug effect:

Nausea - Headaches - Vomiting
Hallucinations - Paranoia
Coma
Death!
