Check out this website. [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). There is a blue box most of the way down the page titled "Healthy ways to relax and recharge". Drugs may be available and may seem like a surefire and easy way to help, but they'll bring much more trouble than relief. The suggestions that are given on the website may seem boring or lame, but they really do work. There are a LOT of ways to feel better. Exercise is one that'll definitely help. Even if you think that's not really your thing, consider what you're thinking about doing. You want to make drugs your thing instead? Drugs will honestly only bring more stress into your life even if the drugs themselves make you feel better for a time. It will be so much more drama to deal with. Don't let the crappy people around you turn you into a crappy person. Find a positive way to deal with all of it instead. Break free from your negative life by doing something positive rather than thinking that something negative will somehow help. It's worth trying everything else before resorting to making a bad decision. Good luck! :)

I can tell you drugs are not the answer. They will just lead you down a road for which there is nothing but misery and more pain then you can ever imagine.

You are doing the right thing by asking for help but you need to ask the right people for the right help. You don't say how long you have been doing drugs or what drugs you are doing. Certain drugs like rock cocaine are very addictive and you will need help to stop. Smoking weed is easier to give up.

Normally I would say you should talk to your parents. I have a feeling you would tell me this is not possible as you could not take their rejection. This is wrong on their part. As a parent I understand their desire to see you succeed but to put you under so much pressure that you turn to drugs is totally wrong. You can always find new friends so peer pressure can be avoided but you only get one set of parents.

You need help, more help then I can give you in a few lines on this site. I would suggest you seek the help of you schools guidance counsellor or principal. Just make sure you don't have any drugs on you ate school. These people are not there just to help you academically. They can help with problems such as you have written about.

You can also pick up any phone and dial 911 for help. This is what 911 is there for. Tell them what you have told us and help will be sent to you.
