A Young Man’s Irresponsible and Hazardous Drinking Results In a DUI, Mental Health Issues, Depression, and Time Locked Up In Jail
Jesse had a difficult time keeping a job. In truth, due to his lethargy and lack of drive, he was without a job far more often than he was employed. And when he did get a job, he had an awfully hard time getting to work when his shift started, he regularly received less than acceptable performance evaluations, and he called off sick so many times that he typically got fired four or five weeks after he started working. It almost goes without saying that one of the consequences of Jesse’s appalling work record was the fact that he was without much money much of the time.
Despite Jesse’s less than acceptable employment track record and financial mismanagement, nevertheless, somehow, someway he made it his business to drink in an irresponsible and abusive manner much of the time.
So it came as no big surprise when Jesse got a fifth DWI. When he went to court, the magistrate told Jesse that his alcohol-related conduct was irresponsible and, as a consequence, he was going to sentence Jesse to spend twelve months in the city jail.
Time In The City Jail To Reflect On The Destructive Results of Abusive Drinking
During his time while locked up in jail, Jesse was expected to learn more about alcohol facts, about the negative outcomes of excessive and hazardous drinking, and he was required to get alcohol treatment. The judge underlined the fact that unless Jesse receives professional alcohol treatment and learns how to live a life of sobriety, he will most probably be spending more than a short amount of time imprisoned.
Jesse stated that he comprehended what the magistrate was declaring but he still felt that jail was not the correct ruling. The judge saw things in an entirely different way and said that it was his obligation to keep people off the streets who drink and drive and who get one or more DWIs. To corroborate this view, the magistrate quoted some revered, extensively researched alcohol statistics that highlighted some of the disruptive consequences that are linked to excessive drinking.
Even though Jesse understood that he drank in a hazardous and excessive manner, he never felt that he was an alcohol addicted person. So it was a rude awakening when Jesse started suffering from symptoms of withdrawal nearly eight hours after getting incarcerated.
To monitor his symptoms of alcohol withdrawal in a safe manner, Jesse was life flighted to a drug and alcohol rehab facility for alcohol detox and then returned to the local jail. While locked up in the municipal jail Jesse was given a mental health evaluation for his depression and undertook alcohol therapy but due to the fact that he got this rehabilitation as something that was mandated for him, he failed to take ownership of his hazardous drinking.
When his time in the municipal jail was completed, the judge without hesitation announced to Jesse that he would be under stringent scrutiny and would be mandated to take random breath alcohol tests.
Jessie’s Abusive and Irresponsible Drinking Prevents Him From Living in an Accountable and Mature Manner
After hearing how Jesse failed to take ownership of his drinking situation and how he halfheartedly followed the counseling protocol while in the municipal jail, the judge knew that it was essentially a matter of time before he would be seeing Jesse once again in court about his abusive and hazardous drinking behavior. As the judge thought about Jesse’s circumstance, he couldn’t help but think about how some people never ”get it” and learn how to live in an adult and mature manner.
