Answer 1

I'd say what you need is a good old fashioned *** whippin'.

Answer 2

First off, let me say that I have a 16 yr old grandson who I think is battling the same demons! I believe that your problem may be one of low self-esteem, and of trying to impress others by being "one of the crowd". Remember, you are a SPECIAL, one of a kind person, and you have many qualities that you may not even be aware of! Drinking and drugs are crutches for problems we may be facing but in no way will they ever help you overcome these problems, only mask them! Try to gain some new friends, and stay away from the current crowd you're hanging around with! Get involved with sports, and take up an individual sport such as karate, etc. This will give you a shot of much needed self-esteem and will teach you discipline and respect for your body! There are programs that will help you no matter where you live, you just have to decide to change your life, and do it in small steps, one at a time! Good Luck!!

Answer 3

I think you need to change the crowd your are hanging with, don't be easily led. If you don't want to change your friends, Say No, when offered anything dodgy. I know this is hard, as when I was a youngster, I lived in a nice area, then my parents moved to a nicer house, but the area wasn't that nice. So I went from a nice school to a rough school, and things like this were going on around me all the time. I did hang out with all the bad guys, but I am not easily led, and I was not ashamed or scared to say no to something.

If it is possible to change the things that are going on around you, you will be able to stop. If you can't, go and see your doctor, if things don't change for you, you may find yourself getting deeper and deeper into things until it spirals out of control and then you will end up being depressed.

I wish you all the best. Be strong and put your mind to it and you will do it.

You could find some activities to do, i.e. kickboxing, ice skating, etc, those sort of activities, will find you many different types of new friends and you never know, you might even enjoy doing the activities.

Go on you CAN DO IT.

Answer 4

I hope this really is a genuine request for help and not just a wind up.

Firstly - well done for admitting you have a problem and being brave enough to want to stop and to ask for help to do this. Do your family know about this? Their support will be invaluable during your journey.

Your GP will be able to refer you for services in your area to support you with this. They have to work confidentially so if you are worried about people finding out, dont be, as your doctor can't say anything. There should also be an Alcoholics Anonymous / Narcotics Anonymous meeting taking place near you where you can get support and learn how to cope with coming off the substances you are currently on and dealing with a sober life. You can find this through you doctor 's surgery, the AA website, phone book or library.

Good luck with all that you do. Wanting to change is 90% of the job, its just this last 10% to go.

Answer 5

Mate i feel really sorry for you. No one should be in your position at you age if ever. It will not be an easy thing to do.Will power and keeping away from friends who you drink and take drugs with will be a start. It won't be easy but will get easier with time. Also find something else to fill this time in with. Try a sport or hobby it may sound naff but keeping fit and getting into being fit is a good incentive to keep of them. You will feel a lot better to. Also confide in someone who you think will support you,it will help having someone to talk to. It,s going to be hard but you will find it,s not as hard as you think it is at the moment . Good luck, you can do it. By the way i did it to some years back so i know what your going through. Just take one day at a time and stick with it. if i can help you any more let me know.
Also if you are close to your parents, talk to them they may not like what they hear but they will be there for you i hope.

Answer 6

Its quite simple darling....if you don't your end up like me, at 28, asking the same question...but will have lost everything that is precious. I would say the choice has to be your own...you probably don't wanna stop hanging with your mates, but if you don't have any will power around them (like me) then it may not be a bad idea!! going to AA helped me to, but not in the way you may think.....i just took 1 look at everyone and thought i never want to end up like them and its a battle everyday. Strengh is your only friend on this one hon, and only you can make a change. You have all the power. Good luck.

Answer 7

Well done for realising that you have a problem and wanting to do something about it. Are your parents involved in your life? Could you ask them for help? Do you go to school? Is there a counsellor there that can help you? Are you registered with a GP? Anything that you speak to your GP about is confidential and they cannot tell your family if you are worried about them knowing. Your GP can put you in contact with the relevant healthcare professionals.

There is also a national organisation for young people affected by addictions called Frank. You've probably seen it advertised round and about. They can help with any advice that you need and you do not have to give them your details if you don't want to.

Well done for seeking help before it is too late and good luck :-)

Answer 8

If you know for sure that you are ADDICTED, go to rehab, I know it sounds stupid because you are a 14 yr old boy, but GO, my Uncle has been doing drugs ever since he was 14, and he is 45 now, and he has done drugs all these years, never can keep a job, lives on the streets sometimes, married a crackhead who is trying to give him all the drugs he can take to kill him so she can get his life insurence... it will ruin your life. go to rehab, its the only way. THE ONLY WAY. you can help yourself, nobody else can help you but yourself, do the right thing.

Answer 9

You already took the first step. You admitted that you need help. You can go to NA meetings they are really helpful. You are still young don't screw your life up with drugs. I started using at 16 and it took me 12 years to stop. You can also go to rehab. You should also try talking to your parents.Good Luck.

I would reccomend that you stop hanging around with your friends who are drinking and doing drugs. Make new friends, join clubs, take up a sport or two.

You could also go and see your doctor if you wanted professional advice.
