My Drug Addiction
My drug addiction didn't start out as an addiction.
I started doing drugs really bad when i stopped self mutilation.
I was cutting myself all the time.
I did it one time for 3days straight.
I cut so much and that by the third day i was just cutting deeper into cuts because there wasn't anymore room on my arm to cut.
I started drinking and it helped ease the pain but it wasn't good enough it didn't stop. When i got introduced to drugs I didn't take to them automatically. I wasn't sure if it was going to do anything.
With a little encouragement from people i thought were my friends I started doing drugs. It stopped the cutting but it only started up a problem. A problem that has spun out of control. Even now It only makes me want to cut more and more.
Its not something I'm proud of I'm more ashamed.
I told my mom and she didn't get me help.
It drives me over the edge sometimes.
Because you never know whats in store for tomorrow or what it brings because every day is a first day but you also don't know when your first day is your last day.

Hello, Lost & Confused. Why do you need your mom to get help?

Lost and Confused, you need a friend with some good advice. Obviously, that's not your mom or your other "friends". You can find a friend at any county health center or at school. Or especially at any hospital. There are lots of people out there who care about you and want to be your friend and WE want to be your friend and be with you through all the rest of your days. Please go to one of those places. Please.

At the time I was only in 8th grade when everything started.

All the more reason for you to take my challenge. When I was in eighth grade, my mother didn't have a clue about my "real" life. She never got one either. I'm now 57 and she is deceased. I am bipolar and was all my life and when I was little she beat me because I wouldn't behave. Bipolar children don't "behave".

Please go to a school counselor or a hospital. They will eventually get your parents involved, it's the law. But at least you will get help. I don't want a wonderful young woman like you to die. And that's where drug addiction leads a lot of the time.

We really care about you here. Please go and let us know how you are.
