My Life

Here it is, my entire life for you to pick apart for whatever reasons you may have. I live outside of the town where I go to school. My family is rather poor, they can not spend enough money for me to go to the gym. My mother is unemployed and my father is a truck driver. My mother finished schooling for cosmetology about the end of September. So far, she has just applied to get a new job, and has been having me help her do shit around the house. Such as, putting up wall paper, removing my bow flex which was my only source of exercise, watching a dog i did not want, and also a multitude of other chores which must be done. Now, I am still in Highschool, but I'm am not where I want to be socially. I am of average height, almost 6 foot, not very athletic, but not fat. Not fat by any meaning. It seems as though every year I make a goal, but I don't meet it. Whether, it is because of my own reasons or external forces making me not complete it, it is a big downer in my life. I keep getting this idea in my head that this year I will be physically fit, and get straight A's. However,(rite now) I tend to put these goals off and say I will do it next year. I am a gigantic hypocrite and for some reason, seeing all of this on some website makes me feel like an ass. I have wasted about 3 years of my life doing nothing but getting high and other shit. I am really whacked out of my mind as I'm typing this now. I realize how insignificant this must be, 1 person in the entire world of 8+ billion people who has a problem, but i need to get my shit together. I just thought this would be my open life journal, so I can reference it for my own use. Anybody who might stumble upon this jumble of ideas feel free to criticize my life in any way.

John, starting tomorrow, you will stop taking dxm, smoking weed, and smoking cigarettes

John, starting tomorrow, you will start studying and exercising.
 
OK KIddo...I'm assuming you are still in your teens anyways. I grew up dirt poor too, lived in camper trailers alot. No worries there.

Here's one thing that is a fact of life no matter who or where you are.

If you don't like the status quo, get off your fucking ass and change it.

Help your mom out more, if your dad's long haul she probably gets lonely (even if you think she doesn't). House cleaning is excellent exercise and costs nothing and would probably make your mom very, very, very happy.

You are old enough to get a job babysitting, delivering newspapers, lawn mowing, yard cleaning, dish-washing, and so forth and so on.

It is my firm belief that is is all right to smoke weed as long as you take care of your business and it is not impacting your life. However, from your post I gather that it is, in fact, impacting your life. In that case, stop smoking weed. Its not hard, just don't put the joint/blunt/pipe in your mouth.

Quitting cigs is probably harder, but I bet if you talk to your school counselor, parents, or county health department you will find free services to help you quit.

What is DXM?

And lastly, if you don't care about graduating high school and you want to work lower wage jobs for the rest of your life then don't worry about studying, get your GED and go to work (if you are 16).

Procrastination seems to be your biggest problem. Don't worry, its everyone's biggest problem. Everyone would rather do something they enjoy rather than something they HAVE to do. There's no easy way over it other than to just get off your ass.
 
What DG said. Pots ok, just let up, don't let it become the most important thing.
I suggest quitting smoking to be best if you really wanna get fit.
Help your mum out more.
And yeah, get some shitty ass job while your still studying. It wont be for life but atleast you will have somewhere to start from.

DXM is a cough suppressant. (dextromethorphan) In high doses, more than medically recommended, it acts as an hallucinogen. There was a really big thing about it over here, Australia, you can't buy any cough syrups with it anymore.

Oh yeah, lay off the cough syrup kid.
