i just want someone to help me quit smoking,im too addicted

im underage and i don’t know how to stop someone please help me..

[cyan jewel]

I feel bad for not being able to really help but I did see this, @nocturne nebula might be able to

[rotund bay]

whoever can help me please do it

i appreciate that tho

[nocturne nebula]

underage people are more susceptible to addiction

do you have an any actual reason to smoke such as stress or are you simply addicted?

[rotund bay]

yes im stressed

i have bad family issues and school issues

plus probably severe depression

[nocturne nebula]

is it making a problem apart from expenses and being found out?

[rotund bay]

yeah

[nocturne nebula]

such as?

[rotund bay]

it’s just affecting me

and my mental health

i thought I’d feel better if i did it

but no

[nocturne nebula]

so if it doesn't feel good, then why is it so hard to quit?

[cyan jewel]

Bad thing to think when doing something like that

[rotund bay]

it does feel good but like,I thought it would make me feel better mentally

[cyan jewel]

Well doesn't your body eventually feel dependent on it too

[rotund bay]

yes

[cyan jewel]

No substance that isn't prescribed well make you better mentally and even still prescriptions don't always work

[rotund bay]

oh.

[cyan jewel]

Yeah-

[rotund bay]

yep

[nocturne nebula]

it's a power of will

[rotund bay]

it’s not like i don’t want to stop,but idk how to

[nocturne nebula]

stop smoking, throw out any cigarettes you have left, no "last one", do your best to not socialize with those that smoke

[rotund bay]

they’re my only friends,no one wants to talk to me anymore

i tried to make new friends

but my old friends made up stuff abt me

and told everyone

[nocturne nebula]

that's not what friends do

so safe to assume they weren't

[cyan jewel]

It's better to have no friends then shit ones

[rotund bay]

then I’ll die alone

[nocturne nebula]

we all die alone

[rotund bay]

my friend’s mom lets her smoke,drink,f*ck and shit like that

and she’s 13.

[cyan jewel]

Doesn't mean you'll live alone

[rotund bay]

well no one wants me

[nocturne nebula]

that's irresponsible parenting

[rotund bay]

yeah i know

[cyan jewel]

That's terrible and neglectful parenting

[rotund bay]

i can smoke around my friend’s mom and she even offers me cigs

[cyan jewel]

You're still young you have plenty of time

[nocturne nebula]

that's not a good thing

[cyan jewel]

That's not a good thing

[nocturne nebula]

that's nothing

you still got a load of time ahead of you

[cyan jewel]

A whole bunch

[rotund bay]

yeah but I’m alone

[nocturne nebula]

12 is no time to assume basis for what a friend is

and what is cool

[rotund bay]

im too mature and people don’t want to talk to me because of that

[nocturne nebula]

you'll find someone, I can guarantee that

[cyan jewel]

Maybe rn but you still have you're whole life to meet people and make friends

[rotund bay]

yeah i currently like someone but he’s giving me mixed signals..

i only see him once a week but im rlly close with his parents

he’s the only person keeping me alive rn

[cyan jewel]

Why is that?

[rotund bay]

because he’s the only friend I have,and i only see him at guitar practice and we talk abt everything that bothers us at school

he’s a really nice guy

[cyan jewel]

But like what else is going on?

[rotund bay]

wdym😭

[cyan jewel]

Like why are you suicidal(?) in the first place

[nocturne nebula]

they aren't, as far as they said

[rotund bay]

That question is stupidly placed

[cyan jewel]

They said that the guy was the only thing keeping them alive so idk

[cyan jewel]

My fault

oh wow.

imma write it again

i guess

[cyan jewel]

Oof

[rotund bay]

okay um.I’ve lost my best friend 2 years ago and I still cannot get over it.she started doing inappropriate stuff for her age,as in talking with old people and doing 18+ stuff.i told my mom about it and we told her mom but she blamed me for everything her daughter is doing even if i tried to stop her.anyways,all my friends started leaving me after that and i had no one left . I started getting depressed since I was lonely and my parents didn’t really care.they sent me to a therapist but I didn’t feel better.

[cyan jewel]

Ah ok I see

[rotund bay]

then more stuff happened but it will sound dramatic af

[cyan jewel]

I'm sorry about that, wasn't your fault

[rotund bay]

yeah im aware,i tried my best to stop her

[rotund bay]

You’re your own best friend, it’ll eventually become better if you self improve and self heal, Grief is cruel, and i truly sympathise with you.

[cyan jewel]

There's only so much you can really do about that besides telling an adult

[rotund bay]

Yep

Yeah,I told my parents but they couldn’t rlly help

[cyan jewel]

Yeah ik

[rotund bay]

I’m still grateful because they sent me to a therapist,they spent a lot of money but it didn’t help

[cyan jewel]

Therapy's not for everyone, sometimes it doesn't, I'd say just give it some time

[rotund bay]

Yep

My therapist was crazy af

[rotund bay]

Suggest your therapist to look further into your problems, it’ll lead to better sessions.

[rotund bay]

I tried to,trust me. But after that I stopped seeing my therapist

Because my mom said it was a waste of money since it did not help me
