Hey so my names Danny and I'm 16. I've been smoking weed quite frequently for 3 years, but I wanna say with in 9 months I have been doing alot of narcotics (coke), ecstasy, and meth, and I o.d' twice on meth and lived thank god but back to the point lately I've been feeling all debby downer and I haven't been feeling myself.... AT ALL. Like I feel emotionally empty and just detached from everything like I just don't care about anything and it doesn't even feel like I'm in my own body like it feels My brain can tell my body to do stuff but I just feel like it's not even me doing it, like Im just not in my body anymore. I haven't been doing any drugs for a couple of weeks but a part of me is sayin that somethings wrong with me but then im being nonchalant about it. To sum it up i feel just plain empty, detached and not even in my own body I need someone to talk to please like I don't know whats happening and I want to figure out what mental illness I might be dealing with but oh and also stuff just feels dreamlike persay like stuffs just blank but my email is d a n n y h e s s @ live . com (just put together all the letters)

I agree with lindahand, this could be a period of depression that is pretty common after using stimulants a lot and stopping them. That period lasts only a few weeks. On the other hand, maybe you were using stimulants because you were depressed to start with. It would be worth getting some help. It could make a BIG difference in your life.

If you haven't done drugs for a couple of weeks you may be experiencing withdrawl. I am not versed in addictions. I would really suggest going to your doctor and laying out honestly what you are experiencing. You are 16 and have a choice right now. You can continue down this path and end up a druggie without a future, or you can seek help, get clean, and do wonderful things with your life. You may need some psyc meds to help you out. Quite often people will use street drugs to medicate a psychiatric illness. Please take the risk of being brutally honest and getting the help you need. You are young enough to turn this around.
