Went into school today to talk to Mrs. Burnand about my situation.
She called Mrs. Whatsherhead the 'Drug Addicts' suport group leader, and so she came.
She talked to me for a bit and I explained things to her.
She didn't treat me like I was just another druggie, she treated me as though my situation actually mattered.
Then we discussed how I should handle things.
She told me that I need to handle one issue at a time, starting with the one that is the worst [the crystal] and not worry about the other issues for the moment. She said that for now trying to quit everything all at once would be too much. Then she said, "Smoke the pot, smoke the cigarettes, but don't use them to cover up your urge to smoke crystal. Use them to help controll it. After your doing steady without the crystal and without the excessive use of pot, we'll deal with the pot and the cigarettes."
And on that note, I think she is full of shit.
Mom and I discussed this in the truck on the way home and Mom thinks that she has a good point.
But I don't really see it.
If I'm suppose to be getting clean, why the hell are you telling me to continue smoking pot?
Mom said that I should give it a shot since I'm "not doing so well".
I'm kindof sceared about the whole thing. It's been a while since I've gone without some sort of drug in my system.
I mean, I've been smoking pot basically everyday since Febuary, and I've been smoking crystal on a regualr basis since July/Aug. So it's just a bit frightening.
But, I'm proud of myself.
2 days down, ______ more to go.
