-What are some ways I can enjoy myself without having to hang out with people I do not like or know that well or that make me uncomfortable?
Any way really. Learn to like being alone but don’t ever fancy being lonely because that isn’t a recipe for happiness for sure. Listen to music, that always helps in any situation. Create a piece of art or read a book which is never boring because, first of all, you get to express yourself; second, if you find a good book you will never be bored in the most bland parts of life when you need it. Books don’t have batteries so they never will die on you. There is no really step-by-step way to avoid people that make you unsure of yourself; you just have to figure out how to manage life and your experiences because every situation is different and every individual handles it differently as well some good, some bad.
-What can I do to help better myself from the drug environment?
GET OUT OF IT FIRST OF ALL. Remove any and ALL negativity from your life especially if you are addicted to drugs, whatever they may be. Look at the causes and eliminate those first so you don’t do them again or repeat any mistakes you have learned from. The environment itself is dangerous and can range from people to the actual area itself. Do whatever is necessary to move out and find new friends. Get a job to get money to move out and in the worst situation if they are in the family, then especially go find more trustworthy people to be around and they do not have to be blood related to be trustworthy. Remember good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgement. You live and you learn.
