Why does everyone turn to drugs and alcohol. I don't believe that BS that it's an escape. Everyone needs to escape from something at one point or another, but don't create a horrible habbit while you're at it. Fight through everything just like the rest of us that struggle. I am so tired of watching these weak willed people let drugs and alcohol take their problems away. What about the people that are acutally suffering? All these people that do smoke pot and get addicted, have no strength what so ever. So when times become difficult, they give up and let their sorrows drown in those riduculous illegal substances. Yea, maybe it takes away the pain, but not completely. The pain and/or difficulties will always be burried underneath until you confront them, without the assistance of drugs and alcohol. Stop complaining and feeling sorry for yourself, and work for something in your life for once. Everybody has a bad day, sometimes even a bad year, but that doesn't mean tilt your head back and down as many shots as you can, pick your ass up, and fight your last battle even harder than the first. This quote is applicable to everybody's life "you only live once" so dont' fuck it up by giving up.

This wasn't directed towards anybody on here, I'm just sick of watching people at school and other various friends turn to drugs and alcohol, we're 18, if life is too difficult for you now, how do you expect to keep going in the long run?

totally agree with you on this!

agreed. I turn to blogging or writing whenever I've got something going on. although it doesn't always help and it doesn't even come close to ridding my problem, it's a constructive way of dealing with it. I have a lot of friends who do martial arts or some sort of sport to release their anger and deal with their problems. but I've got just as many friends who drink and smoke away theirs =/

I agree with you. I often turn to chocolates, sweets and ice cream when I'm feeling horrible but I also want to take alcohol whenever things get even worst. Never manage though, I'm lazy to go out to get them and there isn't anyone I trust enough to go out and get drunk with. I only drink when I'm at home..

Yes, depending on alcohol is useless, its not like you get an answer form someone somewhere for your problems when you're drunk. Haha! I wish mine comes with a better camera because it'll be quite some time till I'll be able to get one.

I agree! There are much better ways to "escape" without actually harming yourself. Sure if someone does drugs or excessively drinks they may feel good about themselves, but they aren't really escaping the problem... they're just making it much worse.
I go to university of the pacific.

I think my problem is that I can't work while on break. It's like it's one or the other... break or work. I can't do both at once XD I think I need this next week off too
