my parents are making me go to rehab for marijuana abuse. [which im pissed about considering i dont smoke more than once a week] i just need somewhere to find comfort, i feel horrible now, cause its every day all day. no social life. and no weed. =[ im feelin pretty low.
I'm sorry. That's horrible. (I'm guessing you're not really 22) How can they force you to go to rehab for smoking once a week? Did you talk to them about it and try to tell them that it's not a serious thing?
dude that sucks. i've been to rehab before too it wasn't just for weed especially not once a week that's kinda rediculous...have you already been admitted into it? anyway if you only smoke once a week and tell them that, they won't keep you in there for too long a few weeks but i doubt any longer than that. some rehabs really suck and it will be annoying and weird at first but you'll make friends there...and have some awesome stories when you get back from the fucked up crazy people in there hah. most places will let you call or at least write your friends. it will suck but try to make the best of it, i know how you feel PS you're not really 22 are you? cause in that case you can just not go.
no im 15, it does say 22.,.. i should change that. i told them, their just ridiculous, and completely cant understand. they wont say its bad for me, all they say is that its illegal and it could lead to harder drugs and get me in trouble. i guess i see their watching out for me and whatever, but this is like outrageously harsh. not to mention, i am have general anxiety disorder and general depression, medicated for both. so this major event does not make me any happier... =[
There's a reason that there are more people admitted to rehab for weed than anything else. I fucking HATE when people use that fact. It has absolutely nothing to do with weed itself and everything to do with the ridiculous fear so many parents have of it.
This is also a good chance to start making decisions for yourself. You clearly see that although your parents care very much for you, they may not understand everything they say to you, so just accept this as another thing they were wrong about. I, personally would take the opportunity to prove to them that they will certainly not benefit from putting me there. I'd be my stubborn self and never talk to them again, unless its important. Never having conversations withh them. I unfortunately started this myself a few months back, and it really is just something I have to do in order to not hate them. But that's my personality to avoid things that go against everything I support. I can't stand talking with them any more. Which it sucks that I've turned in to another one of those "rebellious teenagers" but I don't believe I am, and I really think its fine. Although it will suck for your parents. My mother was going to send me to rehab when she first found out I smoked. She was planning on it when she found out I would smoke like 10 cigs a week a while back before I stopped for personal reasons. She's crazy. I like to atleast comfort myself knowing that, since I got the sucky mom who doesn;t allow it, there's some other kid who has the cool mom, and I'm glad for him. I love to ramble
i guess i should add thats its the third time i have been caught, and the previous two times i was just grounded. but still, ive never done it often. and i think this is ridiculous. even if i have to go to rehab, i'll just start smoking after again.
you do have to remember, that no matter how flawed their thought process is, they are really do what they honestly believe is best for you.
just become more and more depressed (you can act, can't you?) and puke up the anti depressants they give you. if you feel worse and worse after quiting, then what can they do? sounds like your parents blow. i'd rent mine to you, but i don't think that would fly either ;Þ
if you really have anxiety and general depression, diagnosed and your parents are aware, then this is great advice. act more depressed and anxious, a little down the road you can point to research into marijuana as an antidepressant/stress reliever, and who knows, maybe your parents will allow you to smoke by the time you're 16-17.
Or just wait until you are older and respect your parents concern for you. You have many many many years ahead of you for toking.
i have an anxiety disorder as well and enjoy puffin.the weed calms me down more than any prescription drug.
I've got one, and toking fucks with my head to the point that I can't smoke at all. Guess it's all subjective.
so either it's all subjective, like I stated previously, or it isn't the anxiety I have that makes weed so terrible for me.
