Hey to all, it's been awhile since I've posted, still been visiting though So I'm about to blaze for the last time in the forseeable future. I go to residential rehab tomorrow- my parents are making me. I've never really had a problem with nugs, but just recently I got caught in school twice with bud and got a drinking ticket, along with some other shit at home. My use never really went up, but for some reason I just got caught a bunch of times in a short time span. I even cut back greatly after a the first incident, but still got unlucky. So my parents are saying rehab or I'm out, cause I'm 18. Already tried telling them that if I don't have to go, I'll take a drug test everyday until I go to college (in about 6 months) but theyre not down cause they think I'm not being honest. Thing is, I never told them I would stop until now, but they still don't trust me. If I go to rehab, I don't know how it will affect me. I really do want to stop for now, and I know that I can, especially if I'm being tested everyday, but I don't want to be brainwashed in there. I don't see anything wrong with blazing except for the consequences brought on by school, etc., and and I know that for that reason it's been messing up my life and I want to stop. But I DON'T want to come out of there thinking that pot is an addiction and it's destroyed my life and it's morally wrong. Any one been through rehab or a similar situation? Any suggestions?
Bah, just fake it in rehab. You know AA only works for something like 3% of it's members? Just keep your common sense and you should be fine. But I think the offer you made is a very legitimate one. Tell your parents that you are an adult and you want to stop because you want to, regardless of them. If you've never told them you would have stopped before they should have no reason not to trust you, and you should tell them that. Rehab, in general, looks bad; I wouldn't want it on my record, I wouldn't want others thinking I'm some looney who gives head for crack, and I don't think you would either. You're a grown man and it's your life; they are trying to act like you are still a child when you have the will to stop yourself without taking such measures. At the very least alter your deal a bit; say that if you fail a drug test even once, you'll go to rehab.
sucks dude, i went to one last year and it wasnt that bad. All you have to do is fake it, all the other kids did and i guess people are dumb enough to believe it. Plus you'll make alot of new friends which is always good. But have fun with AA meetings. I had to go to three a week for a couple of months and they usually all suck, but sometimes you'll hear some really funny stories. Well good luck man you'll get through it and be back to smoking in no time.
yea dude, just lie, lie, lie, when they ask ?'s lie, when you answer to them lie, just lie, lie, lie, lie about your use mainly. other things to if you want.....
