Hello. I just joined, mainly looking for life advice as well as having specific questions. I'm a high school freshman who's always had excellent grades despite an aversion to hard work. Halfway through this year I met my current best friend. He was more of a slacker with bad grades but he was honestly the only friend I felt was real. He introduced me to MJ and sort of lead me into his lifestyle. Soon after I tried other things but am trying to cut down on them. My grades started to go down but I think I brought them back up to straight As for the end if the year. Now it is summer and I have some extra cash and am debating on trying something new but I feel like I may be too young and should possibly consider going back to a "healthy" lifestyle... Any thoughts on this? (Sorry for the long post)[/QUOTE
Hey man, I'm young, 18 and was similar to you in regards of being lazy, but doing well in school. You sought comfort in a close friend, but I chose a path of loneliness which can also cause you do pick up certain 'habits' which you mind if I asked what you take? I'm currently trying to quit and get my social life back in order, I would suggest meeting good people, by I know that's MUCH easier said than done. Is there anyone you know who you could hang around with more?
