need any sort of advice

[tommy123]

I have done weed since the begining of my 9th grade. I began doing it occasionally and it became a daily habit. In the middle of 10th grade, About 5 months ago, i started getting bloody noses everytime i finishing smoking. I even had times were i got a bloody nose in the middle of me smoking. This is when i new something was wrong and i had to stop. A few of my good friends tried to stop me. and it worked althought i traveled through some very rough paths. I started doing it only once a day. Then once every other day, then once a week. I haven't touch weed since the superbowl in febuary and since then I've been having a really hard time. I have feeling like my brain can't function without it. I can never consontrate. I forget a lot of simple things. I feel like a part of my brain is left in weed and its lost. My head just wants to explode becuase of all the mix feeling and thoughts stuck in it. My hands, arms, legs, and feet fidget. When i am home i feel depressed and feel like theres nobody to talk to about this. Is there anyway to stop this even just a little bit. Anything that will calm me down?

Hello and Welcome,

Can you talk about this to your Dr.?? I don't think he can tell your parents. It sounds like you might need something like xanax or valium just to get over the rough parts. Don't stay on them too long or you will have a bigger problem than the weed ever caused. I'm not a Dr. or in the medical field in anyway, but that much I know.

Good luck and keep posting.......LS

Sometimes kids(and adults) will self medicate because there is an existing problem.  The weed could have been working instead of a medication for ADHD or depresson.  If you can't tell your parents make up some reason to see your Dr.(soar throat) = you rDr can't say anything to your parents w/out your permission.  I also you are covered with your school counslor.  Good luck hon, I know that as a mother of 5 I wuld want my kids to come to me but than again I have dealt with an addiction and can relate.
