I am a teenager. I'm 15 years old. Half a year ago, I first tried weed out of pure curiosity. I had told myself that I would just try and I could not be addicted. Yes, but I liked it, and a lot of it. Then I decided to smoke again ... it was a month ago. Then I had mixed it with alcohol, it was at a party. Unpleasant things happened, but I still told myself that it was not so bad and I decided to smoke only at parties ... then at friendly gatherings ... then at small companies of 2-3 people ... and finally I started to smoke on my own, I still did not do it every day, for example 4-5 times a week. However, the problem came when I started dating a boy (we have been together for 3 months). He smokes every day and I started with him too. For the first 2-3 weeks I smoked super short ... for example we shared a petunia. Then we started smoking a little 2-3 times a day. Gradually I started to increase and the minimum was a gram per day. My father realized that I smoked and since then I have been trying to reduce and smoke less and finally stop, but somehow I can't. I can't give myself an incentive to do that. What to do? To find a hobby? But I have no desire for anything ... Please give me suggestions on how to stop ... I also tried amphetamines ... I sniffed 3 times, but I really liked it and I can't stop thinking about it ... they even recently lied to me and let me sniff something that later turned out to be pain-relieving ... Because of these "bad habits" I don't have that many friends anymore, and the only people who talk to me are addicts and drug addicts ... in school I think of a failed and abstained Duchess ... I'm not happy and I want to change this Only, please, I don't want comments like "you're too small for these things", "just stop" and so on ... I'm scared and I want adequate advice. Thanks in advance :')

Hi, I will not judge you for these things and I will even reassure you that nowadays this is a completely normal phenomenon for teenagers. I don't know if she could handle this problem on her own. I don't know if things like hobbies would be useful, because you are addicted to these substances both mentally and physically. So my advice to you is, if your parents are understanding people and after you tell them this will not start scandals, insults, punishments, fights and other extreme things, tell them about your problem. Explain to them that this is what happened, as every teenager was curious because these are things that are talked about and spread among students, explain to them that you think this is a mistake and you want to stop. What they have to do is take you to a psychologist, not for anything else, well, because in the end these people understand the robot and will be able to best advise you what to do, not to stop for a month and at the next party to get drunk, like you never saw. If they do not have the opportunity to be a psychologist and you do not want to tell them about your problem, then talk to the school psychologist. If there was a school psychologist, you have every right and it is even advisable to use his services, because he is at school to help and advise you. If you're worried about telling your parents to talk to him, tell him you'll have trouble if they understand, so you'd rather not know. This is what I can advise you. At best, try to stop on your own! I don't know what the boy you're dating is, but if you think he's a good boy who just smokes, then stay together, but you don't smoke with him, you tell him, that you don't feel good recently, until you smoke and until then, he will either show understanding and help you or not ... It's like diets, you just have to force yourself that you don't want to do it, but it's quite more difficult in this case, because here the dependence is on another level. And last but not least, don't forget that you are not a drug addict about to die, so it's not too late to stop doing it alone. Talk to relatives and friends whom you trust and from whom you will gain understanding, they know you and maybe they know best how to help you ... But for me the best option is a psychologist, so it will be easiest for you to you, because there will be a person who understands next to you ... Good luck since here the dependence is on another level. And last but not least, don't forget that you are not a drug addict about to die, so it's not too late to stop doing it alone.
