What Project Can I Make Out of Drug-Alcohol Abuse Psychology Research?

Question by thomas_afi628: What project can I make out of Drug-Alcohol Abuse Psychology research?
I am a senior in high school, and we have to do a big graduation project that consists of a 5-page paper, 15 hours with a mentor, and a final presentation in front of judges. The topic I was considering was A Day In The Life of a Psychologist. Substance Abuse, more specifically. My paper could be about how drug and alcohol abuse has grown/stopped/whatever in America over the last 60 or so years. What could I do as a final presentation? I was thinking, maybe a step-by-step plan for a recovering adolescent, but I’m not really sure. Any suggestions?

Answer by Gen Tso Meets Gen Tang
You can call me Gen. I am against teen drug use and abuse. Though drug use may be enjoyable and help you to temporary escape your problems, it is not good for your body but more importantly it rots your brain. And it can lead to addiction, which leads to long term abuse, which leads to you being a loser. It is bad enought to be 16 and smoking pot and playing video games all day. It is even worse when you do the same at 30.
