One of the reasons I did drugs was to numb the pain I was feeling. I didn't want to realize what was happening to me in the past and what was happening to me at the time. The hardest part was that the reality of my pain did not go away. That's when it was the hardest not to get high again. That's what keeps me sober.
Different people use drugs for different reasons.
They have to find different ways or reasons to stay sober. These are mine and they work for me. I'm 15 years old. I have 2 brothers. My parents divorced when I was in first grade.
