Taking the initiative

Hello everyone, I am new to being apart of any thing like support groups and I guess i wanted to share alittle bit about myself. I am an 18 year kid who started his freshman year a Drexel University, and ive been smoking pot since I was a junior in highschool. As of now i am on a financial hold from my school,losing trust with family members, hang around others who care for nothing but get high and basically devoted my life to weed. I have felt like i screwed up my life in exchange for a few hours of feeling good (high). I feel like getting high is amazing however its not worth looking back in 10 years and being having nothing but regret.Im hoping that starting today Ill be able to slow down and make school my number one priority. We all have our problems with addiction and we all possess the will power to say **** this...for everyone who tells us we cant I say lets prove them wrong ..my dad thinks im a waste of ****..my motivation is for him to choke on his words

Sometimes, when people say that to intake drugs that make you feel "good", in reality it is an illusion, because the "good" does not exist this way, it is only the temporary cover-up. God bless you for standing up for yourself and I know 200% you will succeed. Try to avoid the places that will put you into vulnerable state. It will take time, courage and effort to achieve your goal, but you will make it, the main thing, never give up, no matter what. Please, say prayers and ask God to guide you, also try to forgive others. Have faith and you will achieve your goal. God bless you always.
