Just about every expert or not expert was allowed to express his opinion recently on the Alkoholkomsum of young people.
Only one group of people has barely commented on this: The What would young people themselves for the reporting, if we ourselves do not Mo give opportunity to express our opinions?
Tailored clothes un Stadarttänze. The entire family will be initiated on the beta FSAS graduation. But no sooner is the official part of the prom over, the 4-€ vodka from the gas station is decapitated around the corner. Drinking until five in the morning, when friends and Varwandte of tomorrow's elite has long been blessed slumber ..
We love to talk of "the drunken youths," as we would want it now and then in Stuttgart at the station or on the way home to see lying in the ditch. We speak of them as if they were a population shift, far away from our, of which we are not absolute. We do like to think that only drink "the others", the "Hey - alder" and "gibsch time phone number, Schnegg?" Young people.
But those are not the problem. From which one can at a pinch still say that they did not know better. The problem of young people we are. We, who know everything that is in this newspaper, and even more exactly. We, the plow during the week for the school to maintain our one-point cut in the exam, and yet every Friday truly amazing transformation of the Good students go through a crash child. We're not talking about a glass of champagne with friends after the enduring math exam, we speak of a targeted shooting. And yes, we do. And not just once. We can not even come out as a drunkard, because that would be as if we would come out as heterosexual - it is simply "normal". What we practice, is an enlightened drinking. We drink, even though we know better.
If not even Enlightenment does-what then?
To our alcohol consumption is made in the media as much fanfare as hardly second to a topic. But eventually it did. We now know how fucked alcohol. But it does no good - we still drink. The demonization of the alcohol in the media makes us feel guilty or maybe just makes us even feel like the "Bad Boys / Girls" to belong to the cool: As long as we drink. Sure it brings us not to quit.
fasting on the way home we find drunken teenagers in the night bus embarrassing: How can anyone be so stupid to put his foot in such a way to defame and humiliate.
What there is observable in behavior, triggers a sense of foreign Cham.
drunk on the way home but we are even in a group on the road, where all have looked a little too deep into the glass: And while we would never get the idea that our behavior extremely embarrassing or stupid.
are two sides of the case known to us - just as the drunken sober. But how is it that you do something voluntarily, what is really so much frowned upon? What is even without getting told constantly by the shunning, feels as stupid?
WirJugendlichen are ambivalent. How can we still deny the morning, drink, and us collectively on the Afterglowparty shoot? How can we simultaneously write such articles to entertain us while it is still about how full last weekend but we have been back? We will not be disclosed to drink like a lot - and yet we tell each Monday in the clique of the crash on Saturday at the party, the People's party or a disco.
We give so impressed-really?
We know it is rubbish it make it and see it still "cool." E s is just normal when you told of boozy weekend. And finally you can not state with non-drinking.
Although we know how bad it is us, we drink, give it and do not know why at all. Because our behavior, we can not explain.
peer pressure is as basic as known as the "kick" and alcohol as coping. And although none of these reasons is wrong, they take it not quite the blue. Somehow missing a link in our chain of evidence. And no one, no adult, no matter how enlightened psychologists tell us, what is this missing link, because we young people do not know it yet themselves.
This ominous peer pressure - that's not it, what makes us drink. Drinking makes us somewhat more our "compartmentalized". People who do not drink are, first sorted into a different drawer than those who do it. Be honest: How many of the people that you know, and do not drink, are really "cool"?
Or at least we give, we drink to prove them no chance that they are, because we do so from the outset as "different," perhaps even "worse & ldquo ; have stamped. We treat adolescents who drink, other than those that do not. And they do not quickly than drinking minority outsiders. We do not want to do, but it happens on a subconscious level. Non-drinker, for us these are people who are able to be nice, but which "have no idea of tooting and blowing" - Wrong, at least in our world. Because we have "more" experienced. We have been drinking.
It is definitely more relaxed on it, if you have been drinking. But there is more than up to the point that small talk can lead drunk looser. There are simply people who know only drunk. When these people sober take on the road, they can not even give a "hello". They ignore us until we share the vodka with them. There are many of these "drunken friends," we simply sober not endure. They are unpleasant, pushy, loud and stupid, we really have no mood for it. But the pressure to "social" being, forcing us to communicate with them - and that is only drunk. Not the group forces us to drink. We are as an individual, but damn. Force, we do ourselves to belong to the group to which we do not want to belong.
fasting, some people do not like to - to be drunk only funny because the only one to know so drunk and you get the feeling. We overlook the fact that we are perhaps one of the sober-drunk gesitreichsten people are probably not.
But if we drown our complexes and problems are only in spirit, we are not dealing with them. For drinking, the problem arises that we ourselves bear sober anymore. Alcohol does nothing better, only worse.
We get on television played an ideal life, which can not keep up with our boring everyday life. And this difference between Fiction and led us to a sober reality to make our lives more interesting do. And interestingly, we found our lives only if we get drunk. We believe. Because then we can tell stories we find as entertaining as television. And would probably fall asleep while sober.
solved, fix and we drink, we drink, to help us endure themselves. Solving problems facing us in the blessed oblivion by the noise.
WirJugendliche, our whole generation, have a distorted image of reality. And this false impression of reality is the source for all the secondary causes, which are often referred to our alcohol consumption. But the real issue may be fought with no education and no other aids. We are told that what we see is wrong. But no one can explain to us how we should see the reality really is. And no one can free us from this reality-distortion as long as we are enlightened Binge drinking are not even ourselves
