A little more about me, I was a good kid who grew up in Catholic school. I was a smart, really nice kid who was always teased, made fun of, abused, etc. In later high school I wanted things to change, so I got into alcohol and drugs. Now I've realized, about to go into college, I've destroyed myself and hurt people, and want to change. I had a conversion experience of sorts and afterward my growing addictions frankly just disappeared. I'm starting to go to a christian church and have been reading the bible. it comforts me but i'm scared going into college. I only know how to socialize with alcohol and drugs, and they have become my image. I've used them to gain what I never had: acceptance. I've never had a gf, and the only times i've kissed or have had girls attracted to me was when i was using. Beforehand I was never good with girls; and its sad but when I was using girls would hit on me and stuff just cause I was "dangerous" and "wild". It wasn't right but other than that I wouldn't have had interactions with girls. I don't know who or what I am without alcohol and drugs. They are what I was known for and why people would associate with me. And with them I made more friends than I ever had before. I don't know how I'll have fun, how I'll associate in college without using. But my conversion has saved me from a downward spiral that nothing would've pulled me out of. How can i embrace this new faith, avoid temptations, have fun, lead a fulfilled life, and finally get into a good relationship with a girl. I have no confidence anymore; I find myself very unattractive and feel like I have lost what made me attractive (it's sad that girls like that, but they really do). But i believe in jesus christ as my savior, and want to be saved.
And also no one would **** with me when I was using. I do not want to go back to the dork I was back in middle school. I hated the **** I got for that and hated myself like that.
