Is it normal for a teenager not to drink alcohol or smoke weed?

I am an 18 yr old girl and I have never drank alcohol or smoked weed before! Is that normal?

    I know a few people like you. I think you're definitely in the minority, but it's normal. Live how you want to live.

    Seriously? You should be glad. Your life expectancy just gained another 10 years.

    Good for you. Nice to hear someone that doesn't bow to peer pressure. Both things aren't good for you.

    Nah it isn't.
    You need to experiment and socialise. You're missing out on memories and you're obviously a bit odd if you aren't this stuff already.

    Good for you. I find girls that drink and smoke weed disgusting. If you stay away from all that kind of stuff you will attract the right kind of guy.

    Doing any types of drogs(including alcohol) at a young age can cause permenant brain damage.Smoking weed is illegal for a reason.

    You are completely normal. Tv-shows make people believe that they should drink and try drogs at a young age. I'm 23 and I have never smoked weed neither has any of my friends (by choice).

    Not very common, but normal and healthy.
    I'm also an 18 year old girl, but I've done both, and worse. At this point I only drink sometimes but I smoke weed... Probably a lot.

    I believe "everything in moderation". But every person's concept of "moderation" is different. In some cases, not doing something at all is the best solution.

    I know that drinking a glass of red wine a day improves the cardiovascular health in women. Two glasses a day for men.

    Weed doesn't even come close to the amount of nicotine it has compared to cigarettes. I do find it interesting how the U.S. legalizes the two most deadliest drugs: Cigarettes and alcohol. And again, that's because many people go overboard.

    The only thing that really matters though is if you want to do it. I personally have never done drugs, illegal or legal, and have never had a drink in my life. I couldn't be more satisfied with my life. So whatever choice you make, just make sure it's YOUR choice.

  • Lot's of my friends didn't either. Personally, I never drank until I was nineteen; however, I had smoked cannabis at least a dozen times before then.

    Something you don't hear every day but it's certainly not a bad thing. I'm 20 and I quit smoking about a year back or so, and I'm almost done with drinking, not sure. I'm sure it does more harm than good though.
