i am sick of my parents looking down on me and having such little faith of me. i have done all i can to prove to them that i am able to be somebody, but imma afriad that its not helping. wat can i do?! this is stupid. thats probably one reason why ido drugs!
they dun seem to care wat i want, all they care about is wat they wnt. they didnt get to have their chance at wat the ywant when they were younger, and now their making my decisions, and choosing my life. its like imma living their life! i dun wann live their life! i wanna live mine! they expect so much of me, and its stressing me out cuz imma trying to give them wat they wnat out of me and its not working. all this hard work is going down hill....and turning out to be a big hole!
If I wanted my parents to trust me or have "faith" in me, I wouldn't be doing drugs...
do you really think that if you're doing drugs, you deserve their trust?

First things first, trust is earned, not just given. In my opinion, and that's all this is, you should begin to work to earn it. To get it straight, I'm not judging you...
The drugs need to go. That will be the first step in beginning to earn the trust you want from your parents. Seriously, the drugs are NOT helping your situation. In all probability, they're making it much, much worse.
Parents have rules and expect things of us for our own good. Instead of thinking that they're trying to choose your life for you, consider that they are trying to HELP you to make the right decisions. They probably expect so much of you because they know you have the potential! Have you thought of that?
Are you happy the way things are right now? It doesn't sound like it. Try ditching the drugs as a starter.
I've never had problems with my parents, so I haven't lived in your shoes. I'm very close to both of my parents and never had to earn their trust back. I hate being in trouble, so I never did anything to get into it. I guess you could call me a goody two shoes. I have, however, seen friends go through this. It's not easy.
So...instead of using your parents' lack of faith in you (as you said) as a reason to do drugs, use it as a reason not to.
well in this situation iquit my job and my parents are mad at me. i dun kare. i quit cuz i wanted to and their making abig deal out of and they're calling mre useless and my mom wa the one that wanted me to quit. gaaaaaaaaaaaay wwaaaaay!!!
i only do drugs cuz i depression if u know wat i've gone thorugh with them u would understand.
You're right, I don't know what you've been through with them. I'm thankful I didn't go through anything remotely close to this with my parents.
Drugs don't rid people of depression, they may very well enhance it.
So, you're doing drugs to help you deal with the issues w/ your parents... In the words of Dr. Phil, "How's that workin' for ya?" Well, it sure seems to me that it isn't. Not at all.
What you need to worry about first and foremost is getting off the drugs. That is one of the worst things a person can do to themself. I know it's hard but it has to be done or things will not change for the better.
That's really the only advice I can give. Stay away from drugs. They only do harm.

Ditto. Doing drugs is a sign of untrustworthyness as you are violating the law. Good for your parents.
hey man, you do drugs and you blame it on your parents.
Then you quit your job just because you "want to"?
To me it sounds like your parents have a right to think you're irresponsible. I suggest you show them some responsibility and get off of the drugs and keep a job. I know things will get better.
Like you said, I don't know what you've been through. But, from what you've said, it sounds like you're bringing some of it on yourself. Your parents are probably just worried about you and want you to be successful. And you can't be successful without doing some things that you don't want to do, like working.
You can't change your parents. But, you can change yourself. The way to start is to get off drugs and to get a job. Show them that you're responsible.
