i really think im addicted to chocolate. i cant seem to go more than two hours without it. itjust tastes like heaven to me. it makes me feel so much better, and i dont think a meal could be complete without it. i know i gain alot of wieght from it. but i jsut cant seem to go without it. is this an addiction or is it normal?

i dont think you should consider your self an alcoholic yet. try limiting your self. think of it as a diet, except instead of limiting your self to one donut limit your self to only drinking on the weekends or something. dont stop all of a sudden but gradually. your still 21 and have your whole life ahead of you so have fun and drink if you want just dont drink too much and too often. ask your friends around you to help you out too.

i think you should convince him into getting treatment do whatever it takes. even if its by forcing him, he'll thank you for it in the long run

maybe this isn't really my place to be saying anything because im a girl but maybe your looking for girls in all the wrong places, like clubs and parties and stuff. try finding one whos not such a party animal because she'll be the one whos less trashy and more loyal to you.

i think you should encourage him to get help and stay friends with him. but honestly if hes putting the drugs before you, then you deserve much better, and in time you could find someone whom you may love m\much more. you could always love again, it just takes time to find the right person. and honestly finding someone without drugs in their life is so much more relaxing and less of a headache.

tinkerbell try talking to your friend about how if she is using drugs how it will affect you and her children. or i know that for me what usually gets me is when people guilt trip me. like if you say things like "im so gladd you stopped, it means so much to all of us... its wonderful having you back again" things like that.. do you think knowing her that that may help?

sit her aside and talk to her about how much shes been spending and that maybe she should calm down a bit. maybe she just doesn't notice?
