Please - don't be afraid to talk to your teens

Most teens say they trust their parents or caregivers more than anyone when it comes to information and advice about drugs. So, talk to the teens in your life about fentanyl and about how experimenting with drugs can hurt them and their future. Remind them that true friends look out for one another and won't pressure them to take unsafe risks.

Here are a few ways to start the conversation:
🗨️ “Have you heard about a drug called fentanyl? What have you heard?”
🗨️ “I read an article/saw a video/heard a report about fentanyl and wanted to talk with you about it.”
🗨️ “If you ever have questions about fentanyl — or any drug — talk to me. It’s my job to help you stay safe and healthy.”

Hey folks, it's been about a month since our youth have been back in school. The Washington Poison Center's newsletter reminds us to check in today with our youth and young adults.

September was back to school for youth and college students in Washington. We’re paying close attention as we move into October, as we oftentimes see an increase in self-harm related poisonings in the fall. Back to school is a period of increased stress, anxiety, and emotional pressure.
