I don’t use drugs nor alcohol, but I just turned 18 and I noticed that a lot of people younger than me (high school age so 14-17 even) use alcohol and sometimes drugs from siblings, older friends, etc.
Did you do that when you were younger than me? I don’t plan on doing so anyway.
Full disclosure: weed helped me out of alcohol. I went from heavy drinking to smoking, then that also got a bit out of hand, spent a few years daily smoking. Then I decided to see if I can get off of that as well, had a 6 month break and was fine. Since then I’ve smoked every now and then, sometimes more, sometimes less. Currently haven’t smoked anything since January 6th.
Only real addiction I have is coffee and bad jokes.
