My biggest piece of advice is that you stop the drinking. YOu are young and it seems like you have done quite a bit of reckless things that eventually will come back if you keep on the path. A lot of this impulsive behavior is pretty consistent with Bipolar Disorder so if you honestly have concerns, you need to speak to a Psycologist. The longer bipolar goes untreated the harder it becomes. I was diagnosed Bipolar at 17 and trust me, seeking early treatment was really a good thing.
I am really sorry that you are struggling, but please, speak to someone. You can live normally without intrusive thinking. You just need a little help along the way. best of luck friend.

Thanks for reading it all! Fortunately, my parents caught on at the right time, so I had medicine to help me focus at school. My memory as a kid is honestly really blurry; I don't remember much. It was good overall though.

The impulsive thinking is much better. I take a breath in and rationalize everything out now. I have been sober for a while now, and it's for good this time. I would have gone down a really bad path if I continued. I don't know if I have bipolar for sure. I don't think I fit the "textbook definition".
