You need to go somewhere and get help. Do you have any family members who can help you talk about it? I've seen a lot of teens with drug problems. You can overcome it.

Hi there! Have you talked with your parents about this? Your Dr.? Social services? Mental health, please, do not get me wrong, I am not trying to say that you are crazy, but, they do help a lot of people out for different things. Their are a lot of drug rehab places that will help you in n.York. You do need to get help as soon as you can and please do not be afraid. Keep us posted.
Sincerely,
sandy

Hello ginnie,

well I agree you are in a mess and at such a young age.

You have to realize that drug addiction is a physical disease, that needs to be treated physically first and perhaps late on psychologically.

Most addicts are hypoglycemic and this can be medically tested with a special glucose tolerance test for hypoglycemia. It is described at our web site under:

"testing for hypoglycemia and how the doctor can help.

Please read:

"treatment of drug addiction"

i think the first step is to be detoxified under medical supervision.

Please also read:

"what is hypoglycemia?" at our web site.

Please discuss this with your parents or with a school counsellor or doctor or therapist.
