Peer Pressure

For want of a better term.

I was around some people that did drugs. The hard kind. They used to, oh I don't know, push me into trying. Not so much forced as intimidated into doing drugs. They were big on cocaine and heroin.

It was only, like, a 3 month period of my life but I did it just to be part of the group. Of belonging. I hated shooting up in front of them but that's what they wanted to see me doing.

Luckily a family member got me out of that situation and, touch wood, I haven't touched any drugs since.

@QuietEd2019 It was a year or so ago, now. That's what happens when you're not quite sure of who you are.

@JasminD fair enough hope you are starting to find a sense of who you are dear and to feel that you have a lot of self worth 🥰

@QuietEd2019 Well, further to that it might not be a case of finding who exactly you are but more a case of finding who you are [i]not[/i]. Right?

@JasminD indeed realising the whom or what that you don’t want to be is also an important step to take when finding yourself 🥰
