As a public service, NEWS of the WORLD reprints The FUNNY STUFF FUNNIES, an educational comic book giving basic facts on drugs and alcohol. Each post reproduces a page from the booklet, which is aimed at young persons and which avoids sermonizing and excessive wordiness.

If you have even one of these signs, you might want to think long and hard about your situation.You get into trouble because of your drinking.
Reading this booklet on chems and alcohol makes you really uptight.
You are drinking more because you "really enjoy it." Actually, there is something eating you against which you feel powerless.
You get drunk almost every weekend.
You need "one or two" nearly every day.
You keep "going on the wagon."
You think about booze a lot.
You arrive at parties and social affairs already well-oiled.
You have begun to lose friends who don't party like you do (even though you may make new ones easily).
You have blackouts. The next day, you can't remember what happened while you were drinking.
You drink to get rid of a hangover.
Once you take a drink, you find it hard to refuse another. In fact, you hardly think about it.
You make excuses about your drinking.
Your family makes excuses about your drinking.
Once you start drinking, you can't stop.
You go on long binges -- you just can't help it.
Just because you don't have all of these signs doesn't mean you don't have a problem. Any one sign shows that something isn't right.
