I'm 21 and i do lots of drugs/party way hard so the people im around and my friends especially (my parents dont know anything) will come to me and tell me how concerned they are, or how much they want me to quit, or give me reason(s) to quit. I love the attention and it feels good to hear people are actually worried about me and i dont feel like anyone would care if i stopped using...

Is this normal?

    They care about you and they are giving you lots of attention for it. I know how it is cause it happened to me. I was addicted to pain pills for 4 years.

    Anyway, if you keep using, the friends who cared will stop coming around and you will have burnt your bridges with them. They WILL cut you from their life. It always happens. I burnt a lot of bridges. I've been clean 2 years and I still am trying to get back some of my friends and family members.

    I think it would be really beneficial if you sought help from a mental health professional. I think your reasoning is understandable, but it does sound like external support may be helpful.

    Go to a funeral home. One that would handle your burial. Pick out a coffin. Speak with the undertakers about your wishes. Give them all the information needed for your funeral service. Let them know if you want a graveside afterwards or not. What songs should be sung? Pick a couple. Start taking some of that drug money and save your family the misery of having to do all of the above.

    This may sound a little twisted, but is it really when compared to what you're doing to yourself and your loved ones?

    I'm a recovering addict and deal with addicts/alcoholics everyday. I also get to deal with my own affliction every day.

    I'm not trying to sound morbid, I'm trying to paint a picture of reality.

    If you've been shown that your friends care. There should be no reason to keep using the drugs, unless you are addicted to the drugs themselves. In which case you're only using it as an excuse.
    Recreational drug use is fine, but if your friends are concerned and you've come up with a way to justify prolonging the use. It seems like there is a problem.

    Of course they will care if you stop using them. If you keep doing this and not listen to them, sooner or later they will not care and you WILL ruin your life.
