  Wider community:insight Key themes:respect yourself: – “Knowing your limits and not getting so drunk that you pass out”. Girls who couldn’t handle their alcohol where seen to be “acting dramatic and would start crying” and for boys this was mostly related to getting into fights. • more of a stigma attached to alcohol+drugs services- better to get messages from ‘somebody who has been through it’ and not be judged: – Even if I thought I had a problem with alcohol, I don’t think I would go, I wouldn’t like to admit it, • Asset mapping/community member as advocates
