The truth is that drugs and alcohol can make your thinking cloudy. This can make it harder to make good decisions “in the moment.”
Having sex is a big decision. You want to make sure it’s the right decision for you and that you’re protecting yourself from STDs and unintended pregnancy if you decide to do it. The best way to do that is to make that decision when you and your partner are sober.
Make sure you have a clear head when you’re making decisions about sex!
