Wait I need advice.
I have acne only because of sugary foods but the thing is, I have an EXTREME addiction to Coca-Cola and Iced Coffee which are the reasons for my breakouts. I know this because I went a week without it and my face cleared up. I just don't know how to stop honestly. I thought that since I go to the gym, I would crave water a lot more which I do, but it still doesn't over empower my cravings for caffeine. Its getting beyond pathetic. I just don't know how to get myself away from caffeine and drinks such as Coca-Cola and Iced Coffee. Any help? I've tried Green Tea but its so disgusting. I just want to break this addiction.

What kind of drugs do you want to do?
Weed isn't really drugs, it just makes you calm and relaxed although you have different kinds of them, some may burn, but there is still little to no harm from doing it. Lots of people do it right before sleeping cause it helps with that too actually, just don't do it everyday cause it is noticable for others if you've done it and that's still not a good look.
Then there's the pills, 'molly', very popular right now and have always been in the clubbing scene and dance scene, I take one every few months at dance festivals or techno party's. When you want to do these you HAVE to be surrounded by people who have experience, keep yourself hydrated, (a glass of water every hour) and don't take too much.
And remember, these pills exagerate your emotions, so if you're having a ****** night it will only get shittier in you take one, make sure the music's good, people surrounding you are nice and there's nothing on your mind.
Make sure to have gum in your pocket too cause you're gonna grind your teeth (idk why, just a natural reflex) and that's gonna ruin your teeth, so intead, chew gum.
Those are the only drugs I've ever done and honestly I wouldn't do anything else, people close to me have snorted coke and they felt 'on top of the world' but I would advise you to just not do it, it can do weird things to you. My bf did it once and he ended up getting his dick sucked in a park, don't do it.

Try a caffeine supplement? You might get the caffeine fix from that without taking the nasty stuff in coke/ice coffee etc.

You cannot sit here and let yourself die. You can always start life over by renewing youself and your surroundings

It's not easy to make effective changes to your life when you are under 18. I'm just kind of stuck with what I have now until I graduate but I get what you mean.

I was stuck in a position too because I am too, under 18, and I came under depression when I was about 15 and had no possible way of fixing my surroundings until the beginning of last year. Basically, the whole time I kept thinking "I'm going to be successful one day. The people bringing me down will see" and the determination to be successful and happy to prove everyone wrong got me through it all.

You should be really proud of yourself, it really is not easy. I'm 15 as well and I just can't do what you've done. I do get that motivation, but I can't keep it. My energy, confidence, ambitions are all being ruined by people or things out of my control.

Like the person that responded to you said, seek a therapist for sure.
I was/is going through the same exact thing due to my bullying days and suicidal/depression days, and lack of attention I got from my parents. And now it has affected me very badly because I can't talk about my feelings, even when I try to force myself. So now I'm in a box. And I hurt everyday and I don't want you going throught that. It is a very bad trap and you don't want to explode one day and probably hurt yourself or someone else. So definitely seek a therapist.

The drugs you have mentioned I thought about a lot, weed too, and also just regular depression medication. But I know that my body is something that is very tricky, so don't know how I would react to any of this. I want to stay away from things like Molly and angel dust, but I find weed more of a consideration. I know the negative effects of weed so I don't want to do that either but I can try it once. Well, and depression medication was a bad experience for my sister also, it made her seem helpless and I don't think it helped her very much. But she was on 3 different types of medication while being on depression medication so I guess that could have been her problem lol. I am just very stuck lol
