The Blue Ribbon Finland has published “Aging and Substances” booklet that has been written in plain language to aid people to understand the risks and issues regarding substance abuse at older age. It includes a simple test about your alcohol use, effects of alcohol abuse described on women and on men. It also discusses the issues related to drug abuse and gives tips to reduce and stop the usage. Finally it provides guidance on seeking support and provides useful tips for self help and first steps for recovery.
Have a look and be surprised how much ore you can learn by reading this small booklet. Available in Finnish as a free PDF download http://www.ikaantyneidenpaihdetyo.fi/files/8814/4779/1933/Ikaantyminen_ja_paihteet_selkoesite.pdf
