Am I wasting the best years of my life? I don’t drink and I have never tried Marijuana.
My family has a long complicated history of substance abuse so I always believed I was being smart but everyone does tries it at least once, right? And I’m about to be 21 so maybe I should have a drink? But I am so scared. I have vivid nightmares of me being drunk while driving and killing someone in a crash. And I’ve seen where weed has led to up close with my grandmother. She died from an overdose of both prescription and non prescription meds.
People tell me I am paranoid, even my little sister thinks I am uptight. Maybe that’s why I have no friends. Maybe it’s because I am a scared loser who won’t let go for once. I don’t know what I am doing. I wasted all of high school and now I am wasting my 20’s.
