  4. Novel—Character dealing with problem “My eyes are dry and a searing headache has pierced my temples. Twice more I’ve booted whatever was left in my stomach into a wastebasket. It’s late morning, but my room is still dark, and all I want to do is sleep for a long, long time” (Martino 5).

  5. Novel—Causes of the problem “The guys on the team went on about the game. There was more chugging and plenty of high fives. I thought I’d want to hear and talk about my goal and our victory all night long, but I didn’t” (Martino 205). [Peer Pressure/Celebrating]

  6. Novel—Causes of the problem “The other time was with Ruby. I didn’t mind relinquishing control to the alcohol—what was the worst that could happen?” (Martino 206). [Looking cool]

  7. Novel—Causes of the problem “I felt lightheaded…I was near the point of no return, but I didn’t care. Besides, this wasn’t completely unfamiliar. I’d been there twice before. Last spring, when my mom was on a date, I’d passed out on our roof with a blanket and a twelve-pack” (Martino 205-206). [No parental supervision]

  8. Novel—Causes of the problem “Who needs another?” Brad said. “I got a full cooler in the back seat of my car…” (Martino 205). [Peer Pressure/Celebrating]

  9. Novel—Signs of the problem “After a night drowning in alcohol, I’m worse than hung-over---I’m still wasted” (Martino 1).

  10. Novel—Signs of the problem “Blackness closes in…I’m gonna pass out…I smell something nasty. I touch my fingers to my face---it’s puke…memories of last night seem like really bad dreams—fading in, fading out, overlapping…” (Martino 2).

  11. Novel—Prevention “As I went to leave the kitchen, my mom put up her hand… ‘I don’t want you getting that drunk ever again’” (Martino 225).

  12. Novel—Prevention “Then she said, with a seriousness I hadn’t heard in a long time, “It’s about making the right decisions, Jonny. Every day. In school, at home, or out wherever. I can’t always be there. And there’s no one else. I have to trust you to do the right thing…I don’t know if you did last night” (Martino 225).
