    Adrian Mole post got me thinging i'm alot like him i can reconise alot of what he says in my own life.

    I'm in college too i feel like i'm on train tracks i dont reaally know where i'm going just going through the motions of college i have many doubts in my mind is this the right vourse for me etc

    well back to the topic , ok i'm fairly quite shy quite what ever so when i was young i used drink lots to over come or just escape the rules and constrants i put on myself. Recently i have turn to drugs kinda out of it now but it was a good escape. I have regained control recently but now i'm in a new college and so board just wanting something to happen i might slip back i'm probably over reacting i'm alot btter then most of my friends i just tend to take thing too fair

    i dont know what i,m trying to accomplish here just getting stuff off my chest

    Are you on drugs now? I could'nt understand most of what you typed there ;)

    We are all a bit self destructive to some level. You must learn self control, find yourself with inner peace...stop losing yourself with drugs and alcohol.

    Try a form of meditation that you are happy with, find a comfort zone and set goals for yourself.
    If you set goals for yourself and work towards accomplishing them you wont be bored, start out small so you wont become discouraged when something doesnt work out.

    Life is full of twists and turns, plans are good but often come to a fork...no one has the answers kid, living is all you can do to figure it out.

    Find just who and what you are, and accept it. It's so very easy after that.

    Well said Sarky. That just about captures it. I think a lot of people are waiting for some change to happen. -There's no magic button.
    I really do feel sorry for the many people on here who have problems though.... tis a damned shame.

    try and bear in mind that you'll never figure out the what's where's and how's of life unless you get a good hold of yourself from the inside.

    maybe not quite the same thing, but I found out (after lots of self destructive behaviour towards myself and those around me) that you'll never be happy with someone else until you are happy with yourself. dunno if that will help, or even make sense of things for you, but it sorted me out when I figured it out.

    What sort of drugs out of curiousity?

    if it's a few joints I wouldn't worry too much, it won't do you any harm, you'll just never get anything done, but you might want to keep an eye on anything stronger than that, as it can become habit forming if you know what I mean.

    I wouldn't worry about not knowing where you are going for now either, just get on with each day as it comes and you'll figure it out somewhere along those train tracks when you come to somewhere you want to be.

    I just turned 27 and I'm a long way from figuring it out, but I think I'm doing OK, but it took me till I was 25 to even have a clue about anything.

    Like I said, don't worry too much, just try and keep on the straight and narrow (you know what's right and what's wrong) don't take anything too seriously and don't be afraid of disappointment, it's all part of the journey.

    sorry for rabbiting on, I have moments like that every now and again.
