Studying can come with a lot of stress and pressure. Some students turn to addictive substances during their studies. Whether alcohol, nicotine, illegal drugs or prescription medication – the use of addictive substances can have serious health consequences.
If you find that you are using addictive substances, for example to cope with the stress of studying, it is important to seek professional help. In Würzburg, there are counseling centers and support services that offer assistance with addiction problems.
The Aktivbüro offers counseling sessions with a clearing mandate and acts as a guide in a protected environment. There is also an extensive self-help database and referrals are made to suitable group offers or advice centers. The groups for young adults with depression, for example, could be of interest to students.
