Drugs. Alcohol. This Is My Story.
In fourth grade, my life was great. I had my cousin home, my grandparents were alive, and I thought life couldn't get any better. Drugs and alcohol, made my cousin do a horrible thing. On December 16th, 2006, he murdered my Grandmother. Not only did he ruin his own life, he took down someone elses as well. He lied, stole, smoked pot. Those things led to my Gigi's Murder. It's not cool. Now I Don't have my 'role model' cousin, and I don't have my Grandmother, whose house i went to every holiday, every weekend. We would sleep on the couch, and watch our favorite design shows. We would laugh and do magic tricks. But I can't laugh with my Grandma anymore. All because Drugs and Alcohol took it all away! It's not fair but it is something i have to live with for the rest of my life, because of Drugs and Alcohol. Everything bad in my life has happened because of Drugs and Alcohol. I Know not to go near that stuff. I want to help people stay away from these things so they don't suffer the same fate. This website is helping me do it.
Drugs & alcohol, together or apart, they will always ruin things.
I was only in 7th grade, stupid, nieve, & young. I started smoking weed. & Drinking. My parents never knew, they never caught me. but to this day, I still get the urge to guzzle down a bottle of vodka, to this day, I still want that last puff of a joint. I suffered with mild depression all throughtout middle school, & some of this summer. you see, my bestfriend, is my great grandfather. He died when I was 4, & I didn't understand. It hit me one night this summer, that I'd never see him again, & what I didnt know, was that the day after I broke down, was his birthday. My subconcious mind remembered, but my concious mind did not. I just let that go & didn't let it bother me, much. But then, about a month ago, the only man that could ever begin to replace my bestfriend, died too. He was, is, my god father, named Nathan. I cried for three days straight, didn't eat, didn't sleep, I drank my nights away, & smoked away my hangovers. It got to the point to where I just wanted to die. I began cutting myself, & attempted suicide. Then my bestfriend janae stepped in & made everything okay again. She would make me laugh until my stomach hurts, & make me cry nothing but happy tears. She's my rock. Without her, I'd probably be dead. We spend all of our time together, just to be there for one another. but, the point of me sharing my story, is that there is hope. I'm alive & well, & drug & alcohol free. Whatever anyone is going through, it can get better, if you choose to let it. the best thing you can do, is be there for someone in need.
