"We make war so that we may live in peace." -aristotle"If you judge someone right away, you will not be able to learn to love them."
I'm Hayley, I'll try to help you as best I can. I'm 18, and a senior in high school. I like art, music, and clothing. I'm a vegetarian abd have been consistent with it for four years. I have two dogs a westie named misty and a Maltese/poodle mix named mally. I know a lot about dogs because any time
my dogs get a scratch, I research and call the vet haha.

I'm 18/f and have wanted a tattoo for quite some time.
I've always wanted a short quote along the side of my foot, and there are only 2 things stopping me.
I'm not very pain-tolerant, and I know the foot is one of the most painful places to get a tattoo, and the easiest to get an infection. I've done my research. Also, the quote I used to want is much too long to get on my foot.
So here are my questions:
Does anyone know and good, short-esque quotes you could get tattooed along the side of your foot? [If you've seen a tattoo you think is awesome (small tattoo!) and it's not a quote, feel free to share that too]
And, just in case I decide that I'm much too pain intolerant to get it on the side of my foot, what are some other, less painful places to get a quote tattoo? Make sure it's a place that can be easily covered when I enter my career (I'm in college to become a teacher).
I'm not going to get one unless I'm positive, but there's nothing wrong with getting suggestions.
Thanks!
I'm not really sure on qoutes..but my favorite qpute is "we make war so that we may live in peace"-aristole..pretty sure that's how it goes. If I were to get a tattoo it'd probably be a peace sign or tree or rosary. Because those are three things I know I will never stop loving. (peace, nature,god) a tattoo is a big descision so it has to be something you won't get tired of. I would get a tattoo on my wrist, foot, or ankle. All painful places..haha. Probably your back or arm or leg.isn't painful.. I wouldn't personally know though. Hope that helped :)
Heey sorry this is the girl that you answered the regrets question and I'm a little confused of what to do .... Shd already mvoed on, like it's been 2 days and she already made out with a guy but I know i ask her she will probly be sad but I dunno if she would sAY yes or no but asking her would be weird and it would take awhile to get normal again so is it worth it? And how do I know that I won't think he's clingy again if I ever were to date him,....? Please heelp
I don't know, I don't know your friend but it seems like she moves on so fast. I mean do you think this relationship is worth it or not? If you really like him and really want to date him..then I would just ask her do you still have any feelings for your ex and if you don't well would it be ok if I dated him..or something like that. And what about the guy..does he still have feelings for her? I mean she did break up with him..how long ago did they break up? You don't want be sloppy seconds :/ I don't know though..in my opinion the relationship isn't probably worth it unless your like inlove with him. I hope that helped I'm on my iPod :) good luck!
So me and my friend have been friends for over a year and we absolutely love each other, so this year there's this guy. Well call him skip so first my friend dates him, but only for a day because it was really awkward then they broke up a couple months later they start liking each other again and I'm really good friends with skip so we always talk and so my friend left for 2 weeks and in that time me and skip started liking each other so we were like w/e about my friend because she is known for Dating a lot of people and when she got back she was a little bad but bot bad because she met someone oN the trip she went on. Me and skip dated for a week and we were both really happy with each other buut idk what happened , I thin I found him too clingy or something really minor like that and I paniced and dumped him and a little whle after that I regretted doing it but he was reAlly hurt by it so I didn't tell any one. As time went on my friend forgot about that other guy and started liking skip again ( mean while I still regret dumping him but not telling anyon) and me and skip resovled things and are really good friends again. So skip asked my friend out and of course she said yes but while they were dating she cheated on him with one guy, which he found out about and after he found out she told me she would never do it again and I beliveed her but she did it twice MORE and he never did find out ( btw still regrtning dumping him stiiil) so this one guy that she cheated on skip with she started liking and a couple days ago she said she wants to dump skip and I was like are you sure ? And she said yea so I was like ok and she broke up with him yesterday and I texted him asking if he was ok and he said ya he doesn't care because she's different than he thought and we sorta talked about that then he asked me how my boy situation was going and I said not good and he's like why. And I'm like every guy I like doesn't like me and he's like that's not true ! I liked you and he listed people and I'm like ya I guess but I can never keep a relationship and he's like yA you can I liked you a lot but you just don't and I'm like ya that's the problem then I thought I HAVE TO tell him so I made him promise not to tell and he said that I'm his best fiend that is a girl so he would never tell so I told him and at first he didn't believe me and then when he did he said that it sucked when I broke up with him because he liked me quite bit and that it was unexpected ........... Was it right to tell him? And what if I like I'm now? I can't date him, my best friend just dated him for 3 months but what if I want to date him ? And in all what do I do about my whole situTion
Ok obviously you like him and he likes you. Your friend broke ip with him. She seems like she moves on fast. Just tell her how you feel and ask her if it would be ok with her and If she says yes then go for it if she says no..well then you need to de IDE what's more important your friendship with her or this boy..
Okay last year i was in 10th grade. This guy started talking to me randomly, he recently turned 18, and I just turned 15 (this was october 2008). Soo, one day..I was sitting out from gym because I just hate sportss, and he sat out too because he was unprepared. He started talking to me about school, gym, and how old we each are. After that, he talked to me often, and he also stared at me a lot. I even heard him tell his friend, who is a girl, that he thought I was pretty. So, I kind of thought he liked me. And, I liked him too of course. But, after several months of flirting off/on, he just stopped talking to me. Basically, school ended in June, and I haven't talked to him in like..maybe, 6 months? But, all the sudden, starting 2 days ago, I keep having dreams about him! They're weird too..the first one was in school, and he was sitting their with this girl I know (the girl who he told that he thinks im pretty) and he looked sad or something. The dream wasn't even long. That's what it consisted of. Then last night, the dream was that I was with my friends, and all the sudden he appeared and was with some girl (who ive never seen in my life) and they were holding hands and stuff. In both dreams I didn't talk to him or anything. It's weird! Why am I suddenly having dreams about him? I haven't talked to him in soo long, and I THOUGHT I was over him since he started to ignore me. Please help? Any advice? Thankyou.
Literally this EXACT thing happened to me. Tho only difference is I'm a little older then you but besides that exact thing..creepy haha. Anyway, I just think the reason I'm having dreams is he is still in the back of my mind. I may not be fantasizing about him and stuff but he is still in the back of my mind. But what I would like to believe is it's fate and were meant to be..but I don't know about that one ha...hope that helped!:)
What exactly is taking a break from a relationship? Like what goes on during it?
In my opinion it's swhen you see other people or just want some time to yourself. You may still like the person but may have feelings for someone else, hope that helps
Give me your honest opinion. Why do you think vampires are evil?
I don't know if vampires are evil, I've never met one :) I'm assuming they'd be considered evil, because they are suppose to kill humans, or drink blood. That's the only reason I can think of why they'd be evil.
Hey im 18/f and my ex boyfriend is 19/m. This is kind of long but please read! So my ex boyfriend and i dated for about a year and a half. Then he started kinda going crazy on me, long story threateneing to kill me but i know he wouldnt because he isnt that kind of guy. Well my mom got involved and told me i should get a restraining order, i wasnt really all for it but she was my mom and i felt like i couldnt say no. it got to the point where if i wouldnt answer his calls he would stand in the middle of the road and wouldnt let me through. He lives down the road from me as well. Well he ended up in jail and we stopped talking for about 2 months. Then i felt bad and his family was giving me crap about it all so i decided to start talking to him again which i look back now and really regret it. Nobody i know friends/family know about what is going on, and all of his family does know. I am trying to leave this ex boyfriend now and there is still a restraining order and he keeps saying if i leave he'll call the cops and tell them everything, or he'll tell my mom and ruin my life. Sometimes he ever forces me to have sex with him, he says if i dont then he'll do something else. Im so sick of it. I want this all to be over but i dont want to go to the police about this. Every time i resort to the police it gets messy. Like Jury trial and all that crap. Im looking back now and i really regret talking to him again. He keeps saying how he'll change but i know he wont. He even said the other day that he wanted to hit me and slit my throat, then he was like oh im just kidding after he got a reaction out of me. He doesnt have a license anymore either so i have to like give him rides everywhere and if i dont he'll freak out and make me feel bad etc. Can somebody please tell me what to do. :( its stressful and im getting sick of this. I've tried ignoring him and it just doesnt work. Thanks a ton ill rate high!
Hes crazy. I mean, he really seems pretty mental. You NEED to contact the police, tell them how he is threatening your life, and forcing you have sex with him, you need to tell your parents and police everything. He is abusing you, and you need to get away from him. You don't deserve this, and since you said ignoring him didn't work, you have no other options except to contact the police. Think how bad you'd feel if he hurt you, or your family. Think of your family. I had a friend, who went through a semi-similar problem. She wanted to break up with her boyfriend, but instead of threatening her, he said he would kill himself, he killed himself about last month. It was very shocking, we never knew he would do it. So, seriously, tell your parents right away, he seems pretty crazy.
I've been seeing this guy for like 6 months and I am sure that I really really love him with all my heart and that he loves me too. About a month and a 1/2 ago, he was put in juvie and it tears me up because I haven't been able to contact him. I've tried, but nothing works. I know I can write him but I don't know the address of where he is and I'm afraid to ask his mom because his sister hates me and I'm afraid she might too. Is there any way I can find the address of the juvie?? I'm a 16 yr old girl.
Look for local juvies in your area, and maybe, call and ask? I don't know how that works. I would just call the mom up and ask, the other way is too much work. What's the worst she will say, "no, i'm not giving it to you." if she doesn't, well try the other method, i doubt she will say that to you though.
I saw these commercials for 5 hour energy shots. I think it said the energy drinks had no sugar or carbs. I heard somebody say they were better than the other energy drinks (NOS, RockStar, Monster, etc.) and I want to buy some.
Where can I buy 5 hour energy shots?
they have them basically any where. i even saw them at home depot! haha, so basically CVS, walmart, targer, grocery store, wherever! they have them. by the counter usually.
hey i have a bad problem.im one of the most emotional people you could possible meet. like i get all happy ovver good stuff and really sad. i talked to this girl for 2 years straight everyday and i was a ass treated her like shit and she broke up with me after a while. im sitll in love with her and she doesnt want anything to do with me. i cant take it i'd rather her flip at me for trying to talk to her just to hear her voice then not bother with her. but she hates me. i was wrong to treat her like crap and now shes like really messing with my head with everything. i need to be high on something or drunk to keep her out of my head..actually shes still there but im numb so it doesnt bother me .. i dont wanna be like this. is it possible i could go to a shrink for it. would they be able to cure me. help me somehow..not only do i have to deal with losing her i have to deal with feeling bad about it all and now my grandma is not doing to good so thats bothering me to. i need help i feel like theres no point in life anymore. please help asap. and please dont go calling any type of suicide prevention things because thats not necessary. i just need help. thanks
First of all, have you tried apologizing? maybe try telling her how you feel.
& for the alcohol & drug problems..do you want to stop doing that stuff, or no? because you can call a hotline for that. & they are very helpful. (personal experiences of my own..) i forget the number, but you just type into google like alchol hotline or something like that, & their website should come up.
or if your sad & need to just talk to someone, but your not going to commit suicide, they probably have a depression hotline. when i was looking for a number in the phonebook, i saw hotlines for like everything. those hotlines are veryyyy helpful.
try talking to her, tell her how you feel.
good luck
alyssa = ex best friend
vicky = present best friend
miguel = ex boyfriend
alyssa and miguel used to date back when she and i were best friends. vicky has never really liked him, alyssa and miguel had a really messy breakup, (2-3 years ago) havent talked at all since. alyssa and i quit being friends about 2 years ago. we were enemies at first, but now we're just civil towards one another.
(now, onto the question)
about 2 weeks ago, miguel and i broke up after 6 1/2months. then about a week later, we started hanging out again, and now we're friends, i guess. we're not dating, but we talk almost everyday and we hang out a few times a week and its real fun. just like old times.
vicky still isnt too fond of him. in fact, she hates him. but shes been a little sore about me and him hanging out, and ive tried my best to ignore it, until last night; i was out of town, visiting some old friends. my phone was about to die, so i left it in the car all night. when i went to go get it later, i had 3 texts. 1 from alyssa, 1 one vicky, and 1 from miguel. heres what they all said, in order:
miguel: i burned my friggin hand at patricks today. >.
how was your and miguels relationship? what are the reasons why vicky doesn't like him? think about those. i mean, i went through something similar to this a few times, being in your shoes, & vickys.
in your shoes:
i had this boyfriend, who for the most part, was pretty cool, but sometimes he would be just such an ass to me & of course since i was mad, i would go run to my best friend & tell her all about what an ass he was being. he wasn't an ass frequently or anything, but the only time i really had a long going conversation about him, was when i was really angry. .. have you ever done that? maybe vicky only knows the ass side of him the best. you know what i'm saying?
& ok say that's not the scenario. lets say, you talked to vicky about the good and bad times with miguel, well sometimes.. friends do see things, better then you do. sometimes when your in relationships, you see things through rose colored glasses. you see how nice he can be, & how cute he is, & how fun he is.. & when he does dickish stuff you just forgive him, because you don't sometimes see things clearly.
that could also be it.
or the last scenario:
maybe shes just jealous. do you hang out & talk to him way more then you ever talk to her? it kind of seems like you are right now, how you say you talk to him every day & hang out with him a lot, is she ever included? do you ever do group stuff?
i can't answer these questions for you, you need to figure it out yourself. BUT, don't jump to the whole jealous thing right away, its usually not always the case. think about the first too, really analyze it. & then go to the third scenario.
and as for alyssa:
i bet shes just some bitch who wants to fuck up any relationship you have with this guy, because maybe she wants him back, or maybe shes just evil. girls can be huge bitches sometimes.
i would just ignore her completely.
hope everything works out.
I have liked this one boy for almost 9 months and i'm almost over him. The problem is that my heart doesnt want to let go but my head does. What should I do?
i had this problem. only it took me 2 or 3 years.. haha. & now i am completely over him! it takes some time, & really, their is no way to get over him completely, only time will do that. just try to meet other boys & talk to them. i did that, but he still always lingered in the back of my mind.. just try to meet other people & stuff.
your heart takes awhile to heal sometimes :)
I'm a 14 yr. old female. I always try and show God's love to everyone through how I treat them, but last year at school I started having real problems doing so because of something that started happening. There's a guy at my school who's basically nice, but he can't take a hint at all. He tries to be BFF's w/ everybody, particularly girls, and whenever we get our school pictures, he always orders a whole bunch, and then gives all these girls, myself included, pictures of him, even when some girls obviously want nothing to do w/ him. He's done this now to all of us in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade, and I guess he'll do it again this fall when we're freshman. he's given us all so many pics of hisself that he has basically become a joke at our school for doing so. Last year, a lot of the girls he gave pictures to starting throwing them into the toilet in the girls bathroom, and leaving them there for everyone to see and make fun of the guy, and he never had any clue what was happening. Some of the girls even pressured me to do that to my picture of him as well. A few times, I almost had accidents b/c I had to change stalls to avoid those pictures floating in the toilets. I wanted to know for future reference how to best show God's love to both specifically this guy, and also to the girls who have started doing this to his pictures and want me to do so, as in what could I say or do that would best convey God's love to them? I mean, is the more loving thing to do to tell the guy honestly what is happening to his pictures bluntly, or to not? What's the most loving way to respond when the girls start pressuring me to flush my copy pf his pic also, or to respond when I see his pic that they thrown in the toilet when I have to go?
What a bunch of little bitches. You should tell them when they ask you to do it, be like "No, that's mean & I don't want him to find it, because he is nice, & would you want me to do this to your picture? How would you feel if I did this to you?" Put them on the spot, & see what they say, & if they say like "I wouldn't care, its not that big of a deal.." be like.."well, you're probably just saying that, & even if it isn't a big deal to you, it might be to someone else, & you have no right to do this to someone"
i really hate middle school kids, i personally think that is the worst years of teenage years... -__-
& as for the boy, well maybe you could just be like.. "thanks, but you really don't need to keep passing these out of you every year, i feel bad because i (& maybe name some of your friends or something.) don't really give you one back & i feel rude, but my mom won't let me order a lot, so you really don't need to keep giving these to us." or maybe something along those lines.. thats if you really want to say something.
i kind of think though if you say something, it will open a big can of worms. because then all the girls will be like, oh yeah we just throw your pictures in the toilet or something, like that.
*sigh* i hope everything works out.
My whole life, so far anyways, has been one, big, miserable hell. I'm going to be 19 in September and I don't feel like I can trust anybody. I've been told I'm pretty even beautiful, but I am not popular. Everybody makes fun of me, all throughout school they've made fun of me. My friends make fun of me, my family makes fun of me, and they do it in front of people who just met me which gives them a bad impression of me. I feel like everyone hates me because of some of the stuff they say. Everyone talks down to me when I say how I feel and I just hate it! Everyone seems to want to know how you feel and then when you tell them, they yell at you! I hate my life, and I hate being alive. No one would miss me if I was dead, so why does God keep me alive?
I've felt like this before. This used to happen a lot in middle school too.. even sometimes now, in high school. Everyone will always tell me, "oh your so pretty, you have such different style, your different looking." it sounds kind of better, typing it, but if you see their face and stuff, it doesn't feel like its always a compliment, like i'm pretty but i'm weird, or something. my mom talks down to me a lottttt. she says, she only critiques so much because she wants me to be 'perfect.' but that doesn't ever make me feel good about myself. like any little part of me, she has to critique i hate it! & sometimes it makes me hate myself. i feel like i know kind of how you feel. I have a very hard time opening up about my feelings, i don't like sharing them with anyone, not family or friends. it makes me feel awkward, & i don't like it. i then tell my mom how i feel about something, & she just looks at me weird, & shes even called me weird before. so i know what you're talking about in most ways.
how i cope with it: when my mom tells me that she thinks i'm weird or critiques me, i tell her how much its hurting my feelings. i just recently started doing this.. & i mean, just maybe try to tell your family/friends/whoever that you don't like it when they say mean/rude things to you & it really hurts your feelings & make your feel bad. if they keep doing mean things to you, after you told them.. you either need to stop being friends with them.. & with your family, well, i'm sure they'll listen, it may take a few reminders, because they may just be use to putting you down, but if they don't stop after a little while.. you need to leave or something.
just remember, that even though things have been bad, or are bad now, doesn't mean they always will be. maybe your just around some really shitty people. try to go meet new more positive people.. your only 19, you've got a long life a head of you. & when you feel bad, maybe try writing it down in like a journal or something, that's what i do, & it helps me.
i heard that cervical cancer vaccination, is only needed once your daughter is sexually active.
is that true ?
Yes. You're suppose to get it, before she becomes sexually active though, I think. If she knows she is going to start having sex, then she needs to go get it.
My mom won't let me get it though, because it's new and unsafe. Shes a doctor and cautious about that stuff though.. I think the person below me explained all the negatives of it though.
hope that helped. :) talk to your doctor about it..
my boyfriend has been hearing voices since 8th grade. we are both in 11th now and it has gotten worse. he says that now he has to 2nd guess if someones actually talking to him or if its just in his head. its driving him crazy and he wants to get high all the time to escape it and he just attempted suicide last night. he wont listen to me and i tell him to get put on meds for it and he says meds numb u 4 real, you cant feel anything let alone hear anything and i dont wanna be numb id rather be dead. so now im terrified because i really feel like hes an inch away from killing himself and i dont know what to do because you cant help someone who doesnt want to be helped and he doesnt see his mom anymore and his dad doesnt take him seriously. please help i cant lose the one n only guy ive ever loved.
Ok, do you know if he did drugs in 8th grade? That could have a biggg part in it. If he did drugs in 8th grade, such as hallucinogens, then that's why he could still be having this problem. I'm pretty sure (not 100% positive) but I think hallucinogens can stay in your system for awhile, or it can randomly come back or something. (check into that?) Even if he was just doing like marijuana, you never really know what they put in that. If he's been doing marijuana since 8th grade, and has the same dealer since then, the dealer could be putting extra stuff in the drug, so he can sell more of it.. my one friend, her whole face and hands went numb when she did marijuana once, so they can mix a whole bunch of stuff in it. So, maybe that is why he is hearing the voices? It could be something with the drugs, I don't know though, that's just my best guess for that.
Recently, (2 weeks ago.) this boy I knew killed himself, because his girlfriend broke up with him. It was very hard for me to take, and he even told me he was going to do it, if she broke up with him. I didn't take him seriously, and he ended up doing it. You don't want to feel the regret and sadness that I feel now. You need to tell someone. Since your probably not still in school, I'm assuming you can't tell any teachers or counselors. If you don't think his parents will help at all, then do you know anyone else close to the family, that will? You could also just simply call 911... but, I don't know if you want to do that or even how that works. :/ Their is a hotline. I wantttttt to say its like 1-800-suicide, or something, but I don't know? Look it up in your phonebook, or just type in suicide hotlines, and they will help you further. They'll probably know what to do, better then I could tell you myselt. So, call them!! I'm sure he wants to be helped, if hes telling you, people who commit suicide usually tell someone, because they secretly want help. If you really care about him, you'll get him help. OK! the number is 1-800-suicide. go to suicidehotlines.com & they have information up there!!!
good luck, & please tell someone before its too late. :(
i have superr bad under-eye circles, right.
so i went on this site. and they said it's cause my capillaries aren't strong enough, and are seeping blood into the skin near my eyes.
gahh!
so. can you tell me how i can possibly
strengthenn my capillaries?
Or anything else you know of that will help get rid of my under-eye circles forever?
Thank YOU!
I have this problem too. Do you get enough sleep at night? That could be it. (that's one of the reasons why i get it.) Do you have a good diet? If you're not eating well, it could also make it do that. (i recently stopped eating meat again, and i've seen that I have dark circles under my eyes again from that.)
So, if you notice its one of those, then try fixing that, get more sleep and eat better.
Also, they make cream to help it go away, the only brand that I'm absolutely positive that has it, is Lancome. That's what I use and it works really well. I don't know how much it was or anything, but you may find it expensive, because its lancome, i don't know though. Ask around, go to sephora or something, I'm sure other brands make it.
there are some friends i have that are boys and usually they say hi to me but sometimes they just completely ignore me. they know im there and they look at me but dont even say hi.
why would they do that?
and also this one specificly used to always smile at me but once me and his best friends stopped having a thing he acted like we werent even friends.
now dont get me wrong these guys are my best friends i barely talk to them. they are just one of those people you say hi to be nice and you talk to them if they are around barely. "small talk"
Maybe their shy. Maybe the one boy feels awkward talking to you now, because his good friend doesn't like you or whatever anymore. So maybe the guy you were dating or whatever is mad at you or something.. so the rest of the guys feel weird talking to you.. that's my best guess.
try talking to them, you don't have to have a conversation or anything. just be like hey & smile & just keep walking, or if you want to talk to them more be like how are you/whats up.
I think I have Swimmers ear! My ear really hurts, it feels like it's stuffed with something. I can't really hear a lot out of this ear, and it is REALLY aggravating! I was swimming a lot yesterday and today (for HOURS). Can anybody help me? Should I see a doctor? Do I have swimmer's ear? I feel like I'm going to go crazy because of the pain and the hearing loss over this. Ugh. PLEASE HELP
Swimmers ear is when you get bacteria in it. (i think. i get it a lot.) if it hurts pretty bad, GO TO THE DOCTOR. i made the mistake once and thought I could toughen it out, and it hurt like hell for a week or for a long time. it sucked soooo much. the second time i got it, i went to the doctor in the first couple of days, got the medicine, went away in about a day or two. so yeah, don't decide to suffer like i did, just go to the doctor.
I've been huffing for close to a year now probably. I know that huffing kills people. I know that inhalant abuse hurts your brain cells too and it can't be like reversed or whatever.
Over the past year things have fallen dramatically in my life. I feel like I'm dumber even and it's really weird because I can't remember some really easy things that I use to know a lot about. I don't know. I'm not even as happy as I once was. It's like I'm only living for the high now.
I inhale every day now, and a lot more than I started with (which I think is natural to occur with this behavior). I don't inhale things like spray paint or gasoline though. I know those things kill you like instantly, right? I've been inhaling common household products and personal hygiene products. I won't name specifics in case it isn't allowed here, but it's stuff that like EVERYBODY uses so I can't just run away from it or something easy.
It's just things like not being able to leave the house without getting high or I get frustrated, angry, irritated, etc. so easily. I can't spend the night at my friend's houses anymore because I HAVE to huff and I know it's so disrespectful to do it there (I have done it before and didn't turn out so good).
Anyway, I guess I am just looking for the next step. They say you have to admit the problem first and I am. Nobody else knows about me huffing though. I mean, I'm a pretty girl...you wouldn't know I was an inhalant abuser by looking at me. I did do okay in school. I mean I didn't get any Ds or Fs. I've had plenty of boyfriends. I am single right now but I wouldn't be...lots of guys keep asking me out and stuff but it's just...addiction, you know? Can't even make time to be healthy and stuff and they want me to care about them.
I don't want to tell a counselor or whatever because I don't want to get in trouble. I am also really afraid of going through the withdrawals because you just have to know it...I mean...it sucks SO bad to even TRY to leave the house in the morning without huffing. I've tried to cut down on my huffing but it doesn't work...I guess you just have to be in the moment to understand that but you can't just STOP when you want to...it's like...you NEED more and more of that high until you are so f---ed up you can't continue it.
I guess what's made me realize all of this was a big deal was me getting really sick and stuff last night after I huffed. It was really bad and I'm amazed I'm not dead. I threw up some times, peed myself, hallucinated, and passed out completely until this morning. This is going too far and I know. I know I'm dying.
I don't know. Can anybody help? I think I've already hurt my brain cells. And I really, really don't want to die...what do I do?
I had this problem in 7th grade. I used to be really addicted too. Ok, if you're scared right now to tell your counselors or parents, ever heard of like alcohol anonymous? Well, they also have like 1-800 numbers for drug addictions. I can't remember what i called. I just looked in the phone book. They probably have one for this sniffing/huffing whatever, too. Look in your phone book, if they don't have that, just call like any of them, i'm sure they'll be able to connect you to the right place, or even help you, even if its not the same kind of drug. It also won't show up on your phone bill or anything, as long as its 1-800. (& it definitely should be.) so if your scared to tell anyone, that's always a plus. Also, I think if you do tell like a counselor or something, you don't get in trouble, because your admitting your problem and trying to get help. As long as your not selling drugs or doing any other hardcore drugs, i really do not think you will get in any sort of trouble. You really should tell someone though. Your parents may be upset at first, but they will want to help you. Even try telling a well trusted friend. When I told my one friend, he helped me sooooo much. I don't think anything would have changed if it wasn't for him. I would probably be dead. So, seriously call that hotline. & if that isn't help enough, tell your parents, teacher, counselor, anyone that can help you.
good luck.
