Psychological prevention of such behavior among young people depends on the factors that make the disease develop. It is proved that in order to cope with alcoholism of adolescents, to help them to step over this drama, we need to take into account a number of factors of the origin of the disease, its perception among young people. From alcoholism teenagers will not save the "dry law", medical, administrative, legal prohibitions do not work. Therefore, if we want to prevent the use of alcohol among young people, we need, first of all, to rely on a psychological, personal factor. To do this, we need to work on spirituality, internal perception of alcohol by teenagers, which, in fact, is a big difficulty. To do this, consider the causes of alcoholism among minors.
The first reason, which contributes to the alcoholization of children, is the impact on them of the social environment, the so-called microsocium. Teens are influenced by their parents, friends, the media, culture, attitude to alcohol in the country. The influence of parents on alcoholism of the child is very important and is measured by many aspects. It's like a genetic (biological), which implies a predisposition to alcohol, and psychological and pedagogical factors. The children are wagging about how parents treat alcohol, whether they are using it themselves, and what parenting can be provided for them with regard to intoxicating substances. Here, upbringing plays a very important role. To prevent alcoholic behavior among young people, parents need to explain to the child his harm to the person, to the body, to calmly interpret all aspects of alcoholism, to convince him, to "open his eyes" to the disease. Pedagogical prophylaxis is very valuable and in most cases gives a positively important effect.
But their company, friends also influences adolescents. In most cases, teens prefer to communicate in more adult companies, considering themselves in this case more mature and advanced. Any friends and company benefit the child as a person, except if they are contrary to the values and beliefs of the child, pushing him to commit negative actions. Well, if a teenager was lucky and he got into a company where alcohol consumption is condemned, in that case it is more likely that a teenager, in order to meet the expectations of his parents and older friends, will follow their example. But in another case in the company of a teenager his friends themselves do not mind passing a glass or two, or even suffer from alcoholism. Then the social environment presses on the child, he is afraid to stand out, be different, he seems to be "stupid" to sit and not drink, like others. "Friends" in most cases push the child to alcohol, they say, "as it is, you do not respect us," or "let's go a little, there's nothing to worry about, well, do not be afraid, do not be a black sheep." A teenager can very soon become an alcoholic himself. Moreover, now alcohol among adolescents is popularized enough, and literally each of them has tried alcohol many times. Advertising alcohol, psychological suggestion through anecdotes, magazines and books, all this manipulates the consciousness not only of adolescents, but also makes people get used to the opinion that alcohol is normal and even cool, that there is nothing wrong with it, on the contrary, in small quantities alcohol very useful, so you just need to use it! Do not forget also that the concept of moderate use is different for everyone. Moreover, it differs from the medical standard. After all, any, even insignificant use of alcohol once a month is already a burden for the nervous system, from which it will not even have time to recover ...
Another factor in the alcoholization of adolescents is the peculiarities of their age, the difficulties they face and which are wrongly solved with the help of alcohol. Despite the fact that the psychological impact on individuals is different enough alcohol, almost all teens who are familiar with its action, confirm the effect of relaxation, fun, etc. In most cases, this is a psychological suggestion to oneself. Alcohol helps to relax, to act bolder - one more reason for using. Adolescents learn how to manage themselves, communicate in a sober state, manage and regulate their mood without doping. Similar effects seem so tempting, that cause psychological dependence when alcohol itself is biological.
Psychological prevention of alcoholic behavior among young people means the explanation to adolescents of the influence of alcohol, the refutation of stereotypes and the development of their moral stamina, the interpretation of the moral aspects of this problem. The main role is played by parents, giving young people proper education and regulating their social behavior, although the basic decision depends on the person himself.
