Am i different?

    At the mo i am just turning 16, i've started to notice a change in my body and mind(as you do).
    I find myself snapping at people that are close to me and that i respect. My mother thinks i am on drugs, and i am - i tell her im not though (for her own good)...
    I smoke a bit of 'smoke' everynow and then, but thats a common thing with people my age now-a-days. Can smoking cause a bad mood swings? or is that puberty or something?

    I also have started to look at certain objects in my house and wondered what they would be like if they were a woman... by taste, tenderness and what they 'feel' like around certain areas.
    I have started to look at everything in a new light, like pillows and the corner of my bed.

    I tend to prefare to be alone alot l8ly too. I used to love being around my friends and meeting new people. Now i prefare to just sit about and play games with myself and fiddle with my fingers and not mention laughing at the walls after 4 or 5 water falls.

    The last time i steped outside was almost 3 weeks ago when i dropped my 'smoke' outside the window as i was rolling a 'ciggarette'. My mother tells me to go outside and get some air and call round to my friends. The truth of the fact is that i cant be arsed to see anyone, they havnt done anything to me but they are all **** and if they as much as joke with me it results in me beating the **** out of them. Sad to say the same goes with my parents... im ashamed to say this, but i dont think im ever wrong in what i do.

    it may just be your hormones and a normal part of growing up but canabis has been proven to cause antisocial behaviour amoung young people. do you smoke it alot? do you find that at times it starts to rule your life? personnally, i've never had any problem with it but i wouldn't be a heavy user by any means.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,155 ✭✭✭ykt0di9url7bc3


    You are not different!

    just stop smoking for a month and see what happens


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    Not different.

    Looki me - 19 and outside is a foreign place to me. Then again, I am anti-social anyway and hate the majority of people so...

    Giving up the *smoke* isn't as easy as it seems if you're a constant user.
    My mates for eg. :

    One of them does it every single weekend...he ends up never meeting for drinks...to wasted...
    my other mate has started doing the same amount butt he turns up to get drunk...then he *smokes*...

    He just canent seem to stop...and it's not like it's addicitive...I manage to withhold to urge to *smoke*

    Please back up statements like this with sources. "My mammy said she heard on the radio that..." - is not a source.



    To the original poster;

    It sounds like you may well be smoking a bit too much dope. It's great stuff and all, fantastic in moderation - same as alcohol, or chocolate, or whatever the hell you enjoy. If you find you're smoking a fair bit of dope more than three nights a week, say, then maybe you should cut down.

    Otherwise, though, this is mostly hormones. The cannabis probably isn't helping much, but, well, you're a teenage boy and they're just a bit weird. I was one, and by god was I moody, difficult to understand (even to myself) and generally odd... And I rarely smoked anything at all. Looking back, all my friends were the same :)

    Problem: Teen angst.
    Solution: Watch Dawsons Creek.

    Conclusion: Laugh at how angsty Dawson is, realise that you're not that bad. Live happily ever after.

    In fact Dawsons Creek is my solution to all teen problems. Please sticky this.

    Ah, Dawsons Creek.

    The worlds most articulate and verbose selection of teenagers who have the dubious honour of also being academically unspectacular.

    (oh, someone had to say it!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,783 ✭✭✭Puck


    I'm not.

    (Sorry, had to say it!)


    Just so this post is entirely made of spam:

    Don't worry about being "different". We all go through some amount of **** when we're teens. I went from being a nice quiet guy to being a complete ****, and back again on an almost daily basis when I was younger.

    Maybe it's the thought of being "different" that stops you from going out and socialising. Try not to smoke so much. It's nice in moderation but if it becomes a real habbit then you should cut down.

    Different? You sound like every other teenager to me.
    Just lay off the smoke. It sounds like a cliche, but you have all the time in the world to do that. Don't cram it all into a few months. Enjoy things at your leisure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    sound like another bloody teenager who needs a good kick up the arse to me.


    'oh woe is me....'

    listen to some smashing pumpkins and watch dawsons creek.

    I can see my sagely two cents worth is not needed here....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 936 ✭✭✭FreaK_BrutheR


    Maybe it's time to take a long look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself... "Am I an a$$hole?"

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 867 ✭✭✭l3rian


    my favourite fight club quote : A new car built by my company leaves somewhere travelling at 60 mph. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now: should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.

    back to the topic : i dont care

    Couldn't but think of the Pinto when I heard that for the first time.

    Being different is good in general. Do you really want to be the same as everyone else?

    Lat off the weed for a whole though - even you don't think it's doing you much good.

    I've been smoking constantly for five years. Maybe not everyday and not much when i do. Smoking on your own is bad news. I know it makes tv funnier, food tastier but it is a social drug and should be taken around friends. As for doing 4-5 buckets, thats way too much. Buckets **** up. Nip it in the bud now. I've seen a young friend of mine go into St. John of Gods from smoking hash. Hes ****t now.

    Be careful. Friends are more important.

    hi
    i am detecting slight hostillity here.Instead of beating your parents try cooking them a nice meal. maybe engage them in family activities such as going for long walks around the park will help you to get much needed excercise and improve your self esteem.
    As for smoking,dont worry recent government statistics have proven it is good for you and may actually make you more attractive to members of the opposite sex.

    Well getting back to topic, there should be some law preventing people under 18 smkoing that stuff. Thus preventing the confusion of teen age hormons and the effects of canibus!

    :confused:
    Its the most unsocial drug there is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 648 ✭✭✭strawberry


    Dawsons Creek will make you suicidal.

    Try a double chocolate Magnum at least 3 times a week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Am I the only one that thinks that beating the sh|t out of your parents and friends is an indicator that there is something very wrong with you?

    Stop smoking hash, cop yourself on and go see a counsellor to deal with your anger. You can't treat people any way you like simply because you're p|ssed off about something undefined. Yes you are different: normal people don't physically attack their parents.


  • Registered Users Posts: 519 ✭✭✭cujimmy


    have just started to read this thread and whoa wee man Stop right now. Yes you are different what iam reading is not just "growing up" but the signs and sympthoms of agitated depression which is not being helped by smoking get you down to your GP and be truthfull about things and get some help now while its still early


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    and not mention laughing at the walls after 4 or 5 water falls.
    if ur smoking that much then it's prob whats causing all your muppetry, try stopping somoking for a bit.
