49 When people start to lose their buzz, what do they do? Do they ever get their buzz back? For people with tolerance, is the buzz you get now as good as the buzz you used to get How much does the average college student drink per week?

50 Alcohol s Biphasic Effect Stimulant or buzz feeling Point of diminishing returns Baseline (normal activity) Depressant effects Elapsed Time BAC = 0.06%

51 What does that mean for college students? Most important, every person has to find his/her own limit based on what she wants to get out of drinking.

57 For those who currently abstain, stick with that! For those who typically drink below.05%-.06%, stick with that! You re less impaired at 0.02% than you would be at.05% For those who typically drink above.06%, consider setting a limit between.05%-.06% in order to maximize the positive effects and minimize the negative effects.

58 Set your drinking limit before a social drinking occasion. Keep track of how much you drink. Space your drinks. Alternate alcoholic drinks with nonalcoholic beverages. Drink for quality, not quantity. Avoid drinking games. Learn drink refusal skills. Find other things to do. Don t accept a drink if you don t know what s in it.
