I've been smoking weed reguarly for the past 6 years. I got into it my sohomore year in high school and i've been doing it so much since then. Buying weed to me is the same as buying gas. You buy it once a week and you have your money set specifically for it. And you go get it again the next week. Its become a normal part of my life, Im not a big druggie but I realise that I'm 22 now I graduate this year and I need to really grow up. I've made up my mind on the 20th, (1-20-08) I'm officially going to never smoke again!
Any tips to keep me from going back??

Thats not fair at all. The family should be finding out ways to stop the alcoholic cousin from drinking rather than just basicaly supporting it but making sure she doesn't get introuble. The responsible cousin shouldn't put up with it. She should speak up about it. How old are they?

I really enjoy gambling. I mean I dont gamble too much. Whenever I go to vegas which is a few times a year I do blow out a lot of money but when I gamble like at casinos close to home I keep my self limited. Like only 100 or 200$, depending on how rich i am at that time lol. But if I'm not really a compulsive gambler and but I gamble occasionally do you think I could develope a preblem? I do enjoy gambling a lot though.

I dont quite agree with cyber sex only because I would do that as a child and the person on the other side of the computer thought i was 24. You never know who your talking to, you picture yourself talking to a hot 20 year old when in reality the person having cyber sex with you could be 9, or 79! Picture yourself cybering with those!! that turns me off about it.

Its just luck when you choose the wrong man. Hehe I always seem to
choose the wrong girl, I always end up getting cheated on. Maybe when
you two broke up its not exactly him your missing but just being in a
relationship. Thats what I would end up missing, but when it comes down
to writing it down on a piece of paper what I like about the girl,
theres nothing, but what i like about the relationship.. theres
someone to talk to, someone you think cares about you, someone you can
hug kiss, sex, all those things you know. I realised thats what I
missed, not the person.

try regularly drug testing them. My friends parents did that to him and that stopped him.

This is getting really big nowadays I've noticed that. And people think theyre safer to take since theyre perscription and cops cant really tell on them.

I agree, as long as they believe in a greater power than it doesn't matter what religion.
