(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I've never ever been very social. I hardly ever spoke in school even to the teachers. In kindergarten children would avoid me because I was so silent and I was eventually sent to a social worker that i've had to go to for six years. I hardly ever even talk to my parents. I am now thirteen and I go to middle school, but things are still the same. I wouldn't necessarily say i'm depressed, but yes I am sad a lot inside. The most words I usually say in a day are about 10 although I speak very fluent with a well built vocabulary. When people talk to me I have no idea on what I should say and when I do say something i'm afraid of people judging me. When I say something people stare at me as if it's a miracle of some sort and I feel as though everyone staring at me....I then get really embarrassed, hot, and red in the face. Is there anything I can do or perhaps any pills I can take? I've thought about trying (cannabis) weed...(just once every week or so), since everyone I know is doing it. I'm really smart for my age (as most people say) and adept to learning. I'm 13, studying mathematics, physics, programming, and hardware engineering...will something like weed really effect me in a bad way? I just want to be more sociable and more able to talk to people...i'm sick of being an outcast to people. I just want to be happy and more capable of making friends. The most i've ever had were 3 or 5 and I get really lonely.

Skimming through your post I really wouldn't recommend doing drugs to make friends. You say everyone you know is doing it; Either they're stupid or they're lying. You'd best be neither for your own integrity.

Well, I wasn't neccessarily trying to say I would take drugs to "make friends". I was trying to say I would try canibus as more of an anti-depressant, so that I wouldn't be so stressed all the time. I think it's just because i'm stressed and I don't say anything that that comes to my head. Some of the brightest people in the world have used a form of drug to help them somehow. Also yes, many of the people I know that spoke about smoking canibus are really really stupid, but some are really intelligent. I think it rreally depends on the person and whether they decide to use it wisely.

Yes as Clutch said don't do drugs to fit in. As far as taking pills you need to see a doctor. Also it's not good to have alot of sadness built up inside of your system. Think of ways that you can talk to other people. I know it's hard finding the right friends, it truely is. But drugs are never the answer. My best advice to you is try to talk to your parents and see if they can get you on some Anti Depressents, even if you feel that your non depressed you may still be (denial). I hope this helped you.

So one joint of canibus...say once every week or maybe once every month would be bad? I don't see how thats nessecarily bad especially since many people use canibus as a stress reliever or anti-depressant. I'm a very responsible person and from what i've seen, anti-depressents don't do very much for the people I know such as my mom or any of my other relatives. I know it's probobly more of a genetic trait passed on to me, but if a joint of canibus helped me become less stressed around people is it really that bad? Friends and family are the most important people in a persons life, and seeing as I don't have many people who I can call "my friend" and my family doesn't really like me very much because i'm so anti-social it has always been hard for me. I wouldn't say it's I have depression....(and no thats not denial) I think it's more of my anti-social way of thinking infused with stress. Everytime somone talks to me it's hard for me to respond back, and it takes a lot of strength out of me, and I somtimes get slight headaches.

Mate please don't go down that path. Drugs are very, very, very dangerous. A little bit will lead to bigger things that will mess uo your life bud.

If your depressed get professional help mate, best option available bud.

Mate, that is bad. Cannibus,"weed", will kill your brain cells. If not significantly in the long run. Don't do it. You don't want to end up like a bum on the street asking for change do you? Just pull through...

Yeah, sorry I hate therapists....they've never helped at all. As i've said in my last post, it's not really depression, nor denial of depression. How can a little weed be that bad? Alot of my family smokes it and they turned out great! Literally, my grandpas a CEO of his own company, my uncles are both doing great, and my cousin is a doctor.....Theres also many brilliant people who have smoked weed to ease their tension such as Bill Gates....and i'm sure Albert Einstein came across weed at some point in his liftime. I know i'm probobly nowhere near as smart as Bill Gates, but I think I know how to control myself.

Avoid drugs. I went down that path and it was not a good one. I am 17 I have been exposed to all kinds of drugs including weed. Weed is not really all that bad in the sense of exactly what it does to your body but it does effect you negatively emotionally in the long run. Though weed is not exactly addictive the high feeling you get is. I had a friend die from becoming addicted to high then his parents started drug testing him for weed so he needed another way to get high and her went to snorting Axe cans and it did kill him. Now as for it being an anti-depressant it is more of a depressant actually. When you are high you feel all your problems disappear but when the high is gone they come back and usually hit you twice as hard. The best way to do this is through therapy get all your negative feelings out and learn to be more sociable. Remember the kid I talked about that died? He did drugs to fit in just remember that.

Thank you! This is the answer I was looking for! ....I think i'll just try it once though, you think that would accleased be okay? Also, I despise any other drug such as coke or meth. Thoughs types of drugs are not the kind that I would ever ever EVER smoke and the odds of me obtaining weed is very unlikely on the count that I don't go outside very much. I'm practically at home 24/7 everyday of my life unless I have school. So I don't think i'd ever get addicted to it since I wouldn't be able to get it unless it was a very rare ocassion.
