Question by : Do you think I am depressed?
It’s something I should maybe consider. If anything it’s just a mild case. Nothing really makes me happy anymore. When I’m by myself I just feel so alone and sad. It makes me feel like shit. I find myself crying a lot, and I just hate it. I don’t know why. I’ve come so close to cutting myself but I just broke down before the blades touched my wrist. I don’t want to talk to my parents. My boyfriend constantly tells me he’s worried about me and that if I don’t say anything to my parents then he’s going to. I hate hearing the phrase “maybe you should get some help”. I just know so many girls that had it so much worse. They were verbally abused, confused, and resorted to alcohol, popping pills, drugs, and cutting themselves. I really don’t want to het myself more messed up.
I’m just tired of constantly just feeling like shit once I walk through my door. My parents are really good people to and I love them. So it’s nothing with them. I’m really not sure when this all started. A few months ago. I don’t know why. I guess it’s kind of hard to explain. Maybe someone can help me out here?
Thank you….
I’m 16 and a junior in high school

Question by mysterygirl: Films about teens caught up in drugs and alcohol?
Im going to be playing a role of a teenage girl (mid-late teens) who is neglected and a bit abused (not physically or sexually or anything!) and she turns to drugs and alcohol to “help”. I already saw 13, and i think that was a really good movie, especially for something to relate to. I was wondering if anyone knew any other movies like that, not comedies though, def. dramas. but, it can be a bit of a feel good movie at times. any suggestions would be great! thanks a ton!

Researchers, medical practitioners and addiction experts have technically defined addiction as:

“Addiction is a primary, chronic, neurobiologic disease, with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations. It is characterized by behaviors that include one or more of the following: impaired control over drug use, compulsive use, continued use despite harm, and craving.”

In recent times, many experts in the field of addition have taken what can best be described as an addiction approach to alcoholism treatment. As a result, a great number of drug alcohol rehab program options are now available to people the world over.

If you have a loved one having to go to a drug and alcohol treatment center, it is the only way that this person is able to get well. There are many indications of why the addict has to go to a drug and alcohol treatment center, but the main reason is that it will help the individual to get rid of the habit of taking drugs and doing alcohol. However, it also will be the decisive feature to what takes place in the individual’s life from the point when they enter rehab to when they return to the life of normalcy despite their severe state.
