This is absurd.

[Heretic]

I'll set you up with some background story and then a tl;dr at the end.

Here goes, I've never really been too popular and such so I didn't have many friends. Still don't. I had some that I would smoke weed with regularly and we were close and shit but then my parents freaked out and got me drug tested so I can't hang out with them now. They were my only friends. So now I'm at home all day or at school. (a few classes over the summer)

Being is isolation almost all day every day is getting to me. I'm getting pretty fucking depressed and I even resorted to talking to my ex. Now I'm worse because she's always telling me how much fun she's having and how great her fucking life is and that's just killing me.

I have no idea how to get out of this damn cycle I'm in and I have a feeling I'll become pretty bad in the next few weeks unless something changes. I have no idea where to begin though. Any ideas guys?


tl;dr I'm lonely and in a downward spiral to god knows where and need to stop.

If they were the ones you smoked weed with those weren't your friends, friends don't help you destroy yourself.

Not exactly what I was expecting. I did my research on weed before I smoked it and decided it was fine so that's not an issue. If I could I'd smoke right now.

you know it's part of the problem (that's what I was trying to make you aware of).

Addiction to that shit will simply make you feel worse... and the damage it does to your brain (and the damage you are doing to the whole world by supporting terrorism when you purchase that shit) is hard (if even possible) to repair.

Actually that was when I was perfectly sane and not thinking of going to a local mental institution.

You don't get addicted to weed, it doesn't damage your brain, and it never made me feel bad.

lolwut okay man.

Heretic, you are sounding like you think smoking weed is fine and there is nothing wrong with it.

Well, think of this, if you get caught, You Will Go To Jail. So say your mom lets you take a car to go cruising one day and you decide to smoke some weed since you are away from her. (which is not a good idea to smoke it again) And then you see flashing lights behind you, now what?

Smoking weed is not a good thing to do.
And if you friends always smoked it, they just put you into a big hole. They are not really your friends if they do that.

Weed = not the problem

Me wanting to get admitted to a mental institution is the problem. My god you guys don't get it. I haven't even smoked for like a week and a half now so it's not even in my system anymore. Once again, let me say this. Weed is not my problem. It doesn't factor in at all.

Alright, so let's focus on your problem. Why do you want to be admitted to a mental institution? Most people don't want to do that over simple depression.

As for the depression and loneliness, have you tried going out? I'm not trying to sound patronizing, but even if you don't find a new group of people right away, maybe you can get out and just be around people. Perhaps a nearby club? The other option is to find some kind of activity. What are your hobbies? Are there any groups/teams/clubs for people who are interested in it?

[LoveMe_HateMe]

Just to clear it up... okay weed is bad and illegal BUT i think its okay if you have the odd one or two every now and again, not one or two + every day. Okay enough of that...

I'd begin by joining some clubs, like a sports club or something you enjoy, that way you get out the house and meet new people. Go to a your local Youth Club or something, or depending how old you are, go down to the clubs on a friday/saturday night. But just distract yourself with stuff you like doing.

Hope this helps :)

First off weed has no phyisical addiction to it and it wont make you feel like shit when you dont have it and it doesnt support terrorism. Thats just tobacco companies and other industries having antiweed ad because if it becomes legal it would destroy there companies (ive done some research).
My background is sort of similar to yours, i only have like 3 or 4 close friends so if we got caught smoking or what ever then id prolly be in same situation as you. If i was you id explain to my mom i wouldnt smoke anymore and hang out with your boys or find some new close friends (which is hard as hell)
