Dear Dish-It: Don't Wanna Do Drugs

Dec 01, 2010

Dear Dish-it,


A lot of my friends and people in my neighborhood are doing drugs and I am extremely close to trying them. How do I keep myself away?

Dear J318,


Drug's are tough stuff. But it IS possible to go through life with people doing drugs all around you and NOT do them yourself! I did it, and you can, too! instead, use all the negative experiences of the people who ARE trying drugs around you as motivation to stay as far away from them as possible!


Think about how dangerous the drug scene can be. You may feel pressured by your friends or neighbors to try them, or you might even be a teeny bit curious - but don't ever give in to that stuff. As long as you can remember how important it is to stay true to yourself and to do what you KNOW is right for YOU, you’ll be able to fight any temptation and stay away from drugs.


If you need to, get away from the people in your hood who are doing drugs - and stay as far away from them as possible! Look for new friends and people to hang out with who don't do those things - and stay close top them. They'll help you stay on the right path and they won't put you in dangerous situations by doing drugs.

  • I've dabbled in 'em.
  • I do 'em every weekend.
  • Never! I'm totally against them.
  • I tried 'em once, but would never do 'em again.

Okay so here's a tip first of all i dont think u should of not told him that u liked him (if u did) and u should not be scared to ask him anything or talk to him because u have NOTHING i repeat NOTHING to lose at all. So i think u should be confident because thats what boys like. Im kinda like u too i am shy too but i am starting to be more confident. And ask me anything cause guess what............. I love talking about boys so lets talk in private messages okay. And if he doesnt like u then dont waste ur time on him (i learned that the hard way) u deserve way more than that if he doesnt like u though and add me as a friend okay hope this helps                   Rockstarskittles1
