I just wish I could take it back because I think I am now an alcoholic. I have experienced with many drugs as well but nothing has affected me like alcohol
I stopped at like 16. A week after I started because I thought it was stupid. Then I took up nicotine at 18.
@immortals 8? My gosh, and I thought I was bad for starting at 10. But I started smoking that year as well
I don't drink. And I had friends in school and I still do. I just didn't think it was cool to go and get drunk and make a fool out of yourself, I still don't, so if I go to a party or whatever I just won't drink the alcohol thats there. I won't even have a beer with my husband but I'm also not 21 yet.
@ op I had plenty of friends in highschool. As John said I didn't feel the need to do it just because everyone else did. The reason I've never smoked is because I saw the health situation it put my mother in, it wound up killing her at the age of 54.
Just so you know op, I'm the type who doesn't fall into peer pressureyou can poke and hound at me to do something, but I won't do it until I'm ready to do it.
I remember when i was 12, one of my friends invited me over to a party. gave me a drink with alcohol content (not sure what mix he did). but i really started drinking when i was 16. it started when i attended the baptism of my friend's son. and i was heartbroken by that time, we drank rhum.
