Around ten of my classmates have died this year from overdoses

☹️ we had a very small class of like 300..... I think around 30 people have died since I graduated from overdose and car accidents and drowning a boy shut himself in the face with a shot gun another father of five kids hung himself

Can anyone else relate? Is this normal? Is this because I’m from a small town with nothing there? I don’t understand

Is this just the reality of growing up? Pretty sure 1/3 of my classmates are using hard drugs

You should leave. That’s a sign the town has nothing to offer and there’s a great degree of hopelessness.

Move on and find somewhere that’s not so small and actually live…

@Adogslife I left years ago for better job and schooling opportunities.... I live in a much bigger town with more things to offer. There are drugs here but drugs are everywhere.
It seems like my older town had a significant problem

@DeluxedEdition sorry to hear that, but more happy that you’ve moved on. Congrats to you. I wish you great success. 😊
