having an open mind about going it alone mk may yield good results. peer pressure can often times lead us astray. you would not be betraying your friends by checking out sobriety. addiction is a known killer. you may not want to "go down with the ship". it could yield deadly results. give it some thought. co-dependent relationships can yield bad results too. you are young but it isn't always bad to forge ahead with your own life. you say your friends have helped u thru a lot. sounds like they can offer u support even if they choose a different path. if they are true friends they will be there for you regardless of your independent choice, in my humble opinion.
