So as we are preparing to give our drug abuse convocation, we are both excited to try a new way to talk to students about their drug related questions. Whether it's prescription drugs, illegal drugs, alcohol, or over-the-counters, we would like to encourage you to anonymously ask anything on this blog and we will do our best to find thorough answers.
Here's an example-
--
Brooklyn and Rebecca-
I am currently taking Xanax for anxiety...can drinking alcohol affect that? Also, one of my friends got some morphine pills from his uncle and wants to know if I want some. What can that do to me? Is it bad to take them and drink alcohol too?
One more thing...I think one of my friends is using his sister's Ritalin to stay awake and do homework. Should I say something? I don't really want to, so is there someone my friend can talk to to get help?
Thanks

You can comment on our blogs and we will answer you in an additional comment so others can learn from your question as well. If it is too personal, you may email either of us:
bwellman@purdue.edu

and we will respond with a private email in return. No names are ever necessary to preserve your privacy.
This is a place for non-judgemental answers to your drug questions. Please feel free to ask anything you wish. We are not your mothers, we only hope to raise awareness and educate about the dangers of drugs when they are not used in the appropriate ways.
Sincerely,
Rebecca and Brooklyn
