In the past 6 months I have gone from being completely innocent to I don't even know. I have started drinking (just on occasion) I have smoked, taken prescription drugs, make out with random guys and feel no remorse, Stopped caring about school or my grades, and I am probably going to try pot. I am becomung aggressive and want to fight someone though I have never been a confrontational person.

I am now annoyed by my previous bff because she is such a goody two shoes and I don't even tell her everything anymore because she disapproves of me.

I know all of this is because of the friends I am now hanging out with, but I like them a lot. They don't force me to do stuff or even pressure me, but when I see them do it, it doesn't look bad and if I do do something dumb they support me.

I don't know what to do.

Sounds like it's time for a priority check. Hang out with them or make an extra 30 grand per year when your older and not have to deal with unwanted kids born out of wedlock.

Of course you can drink and do drugs and care about school and make intelligent decisions about who to fuck all at the same time. I don't see why you'd all of a sudden quit caring about school. Getting good grades is something that you either do or don't do for yourself and your future, not something that should be influenced by who you hang out with.

How long were you friends? From my experiences, because I can say I was just like you, that right there is what you'll really regret at the end of the day. If your "bff" really meant anything to you.

I have two points of advice for you. Reestablish that friendship in some way. That could honestly save you in the end, if things really start to spiral into some crazy shit. You're not in too deep right now, you're just kind of experimenting with the lifestyle like any other person. Have you been partying with these new friends of yours since you met them? More than likely that's all they are to you, party friends. Not legit ones, they don't have your back for real, like true friends. I'll say I took it a few levels beyond where you are, and got myself into trouble because I was doing too much shit for me to handle and honestly had no real people watching my back.

Secondly, watch yourself with that school shit. Like everyone says, it's important. You'll lose sight of that really quickly, and fuck up big time which in the end is irreversible. Are you in high school? Colleges look at every step of your high school career, the great school you want to get into might reject you because you failed a few classes sophomore year, no matter how well you did beyond that. You know what I'm saying? Maybe you're already in college, which is even worst. You payed for that shit. Straight up, have fun and whatnot but at the end of the day prioritize, nothing can take you as far as your education.

I don't know, it's kind of similar to what I did. I took it farther than you probably ever will but still. I went from being a straight A student, ready for a bright future to a dropout going nowhere. Having fun, but at the same time shitty things happened in the process, especially when drugs and sex get involved. Now I have to go to community fucking college, and I lost my best friend I had since 3rd grade. Loved her to death but she was a "goody-goody". I still miss that girl, and it's been almost 4 years. Things would have been different if I had her support.
