Hey everyone. I think I've figured it out now.
I'm not good with feelings, I never have been. I haven't ever really been good with language either, so bear with me as I try to describe these difficult feelings
I'm smart, I know I am. I get high grades on tests and assignments, I can retain information very easily, execute things that I have been taught to do with little to no error, etc. I think I like dumbing myself down. I get high often to escape from thinking. I usually get so high that my speech starts to slur, and I dont remember any of it the next day. As I've gotten older, I'm getting high more and more frequently now, I smoke twice a day every day. I'm even smoking in school. Well, school is out right now, but nonetheless, it's a bad habit. I feel miserable when I'm completely sober. Usually the only things that help this general feeling of miserableness is having something to occupy myself with, or smoking. I usually choose to smoke because it takes less effort to do, really. I don't know why I'm like this. I know it's not healthy, and that it will separate me from the things I love most in life (friends, drawing, etc) because I really don't have the willpower to stop it from doing that. It's already doing that, even though I keep it a secret the best I can. I do act different when I'm so high I can't comprehend my own thoughts or words coming out of my mouth, especially at school. "Cosmo, are you really gonna smoke again? Here?" "Cosmo, Allex is mad that you went to go smoke." "No Cosmo, I'm not giving your bag back until the end of this period. I don't want you to smoke."
