So Drug Use From My Group of Friends Has Pretty Much Screwed My Social Life…?
Question by crackerjacks12: so drug use from my group of friends has pretty much screwed my social life…?
Well im in kind of a shi**y situation where my group of friends who I have hung out with since i was kid (im now 20) have let their drug use get the best of them… I have done drugs in the past but I had the brains to get out of it while I could and I have not done any drugs other then tobacco and alcohol in 3 years… Well, its gotten to the point where they have moved on to hard drugs, and all they care about is getting high, and its gotten to the point for me that I can not even hang with them because I can not stand seeing them like that. I hated to leave my old group of friends behind, but i knew that I needed to. I eventually did make a new set of friends who were clean and the good majority of them had never even touched a drug. After a while though it went right back into the same routine for me because out of nowhere they began using drugs too.
Im just sick of this crap because I have lost too many people who are close to me… Some of my friends have died from drugs, some are in prison because of drugs, I have lost relationships because of drugs, and the rest are just wasting their lives away because of drugs. I really do not know what too move onto, because it seems to me that every time I get accepted into a new group of people, they all end up being your typical crack head…. im just really starting to believe that The entire youth of northern Illinois is completely screwed. I really need answers on what I can do, and how I can move on, because it seems every time I make progress in disassociating myself with drugs, it somehow finds its way back into the lives of my friends and my social life
