Guy with an F on a test, this upsets his mood and gives him a bad start to a day. because of this, he feels that the only thing that can cheer him up is his friends, or alcohol, etc 2. His friends come over with lots of beers, ready to party 3. They all drink and party around his living room while watching TV (shows dis-inhibition from alcohol) 4. Friend pulls out LSD, everybody reaches for it (shows peer influence as well as more dis-inhibition affects) 5. Guy experiences euphoria as well as hallucinations (effects of LSD) 6. Crashes on the couch (crash from alcohol, and Im not sure about LSD crash effects - you might wanna double check on that one.) 7. Wakes up the next day at 3 in the afternoon and is super tired (more post-alcohol effects, maybe LSD) 8. Drinks coffee to get stimulated ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1) Johnny received an F on his test in school, causing an increase in stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem. To alleviate these feelings, he believes he needs social interaction with other friends, alcohol, or both. These are the psychological effects causing him to drink alcohol. 2) The subjects friends come to his house with a lot of alcohol. The alcohol will help to relieve Johnnys stress by reducing anxiety and tension. Because Johnny is drinking alcohol with the expectancy that it will brighten his mood and decrease his bad feelings, it will cause his body to react in the way that he expects, and he might experience more effects from the alcohol than they are actually causing. A small dose might cause him to act more wildly than it really would. 3) The subject and his friends, who have drunk an excessive amount of alcohol, are partying in the messy living room, completely disregarding the mess and their reckless behavior due to lowered inhibitions. Peer influence is also a contribution to their drinking together; one cause of their drinking is the fact that others around them are drinking. 4) One of the friends takes LSD out of his pocket as the others reach for it, all unable to take the consequences of the drug into consideration because of their drunken state. This shows further dis-inhibition effects from the alcohol in their increase in impulsiveness and an increase in harmful tendencies. The many hands reaching for the LSD also shows the effects of peer influence. They all begin reaching for the LSD

because someone else is doing it. 5) After taking LSD, the subject experiences euphoria as well as hallucinations, which consist of various colors, patterns and other familiar yet altered visuals. He also sees shapes of different colors, and goes on a high of LSD for about thirty minutes. 6) After the effects of the alcohol and LSD have worn off, the subject crashes on the couch in the messy living room with nausea, headache, unpredictable emotional changes and unawareness. 7) The subject wakes up at 3pm in the afternoon, still feeling nauseous and fatigued from his hangover and an occasional frightening hallucination from the LSD. 8) The subject decides to get stimulated by getting caffeine into his system with coffee, causing an increase in mental alertness and reduced fatigue.
