Lmfao what, how would they be proper friends if they forced me to do stuff i didn't want to? I have friends that smoke, but i have no interest in it myself.
I respect if people want to smoke, just like i accept people who eat unhealthily, it's their body so they can do with it what they want.

sorry .. i think forced is the wrong word

like they "offered" cigar did you never try out of curiosity ? i mean they usually do offer free cigars to anyone who wants to hang out or in case somebody who arrives smokes

IDK, Coming from a family where both my parents were heavy smokers (1 pack a day, luckily they quit now so its something), I loathe ciggarettes and especially the smell, And being in a close environment with smoke gives me headaches.

Obviously even with peer pressure and shit I never tried one, I do sometimes enjoy booze just to hit on fat girls.

Both my parents knew how to drink a lot so I grew to dislike alcohol and touch it quite rarely, have not completely refrained from it even though I could, spares me from explaining myself when someone offers me a harmless pint or two.

I just don't have tolerance to watching drunken assholes in public and I don't want to be one myself, yeah I'm a little bit of anti-fun when it comes alcohol/substance abuse.

Edit: Alcohol definitely has it's place with right mind set, place and people but it can just be so fucking disastrous sometimes.

Nah I never got peer pressured to try. Hung out with likeminded people, and the ones who did smoke/Snus'ed never wanted to pressure others into a unhealthy lifestyle.

I also like to be able to breathe.

Edit: Similar to other people, most of my disinterest in cigs comes from my family. All of my grandparents smoked and I've seen how it has affected them. Both my parents doesn't smoke because of their parents habbits. And my parents passed it onto me to never pick up smoking because it's just a dumb habbit in every regard.

I am totally shocked that you, having a childhood of dealing with alcohol abuse, do not like being around people who drink to much. This totally surprised me and I am outraged by the very idea that your views to not completely match my own. How dare you have your own life experience.

Alcoholism tends to be passed down from parents to child.

Yes well, being depressed or unemployed for a long time or something tends to make drinking a very different experience. Avoid alcohol in that case.

I'll keep that in mind.

I tend to procrastinate more, wanting to sleep more and have lessening motivation whenever i get depressed or some shit.

I think a good way to get out of depression (worked for me and got the tip from someone else who did it the same way) is to start to workout pretty heavily.

At least for me one of the bigger reasons I was depressed was because I had too much time to think about things, dwelling on mistakes and shit.

Anyway I think the thing that gets people of depression is personal accomplishments. This is like the big thing. I'm no psychologist but I really do think that.

Working out hard makes you not think as much during that period and for a while after. Too tired to think about anything else than the workout.

You will start to reach personal goals which is what I think makes the biggest difference.

Get a lot of energy from it

Start to feel about about yourself.

And it also is good for your health.

All of these combined I think makes for a decent solution to battle depression. The most difficult thing is to get to the gym, but once you are there you already did the hardpart so you can start working out. If you actually want to get out of depression you have to realize you need to make a change since your current lifestyle is obviously not working for you whatsoever. Start small, but got to start somewhere. There are a lot of workout guides on youtube, use them. Don't want any injuries. And finally, the new year resolutioners has already abandoned ship by now so starting now is pretty good. Don't work out at home, shit ain't gonna work.

Working out from home is like 40% effort put into it. At gym 100%
Studying from home is like 40% and at school/library 100%,
Once you get to the location you might as well work at what you were supposed to do.

rant over i guess
