Hello. I am 15 and recently my life has changed. I started smoking weed in December of 2015 when I was 14. I've been smoking 1-3 times a day everyday for the past 9 months. Recently I have decided to stop to reevaluate my life and really decide the person I want to be. Before I started smoking I was a very depressed angry person, and once I started, the weed definitely masked my depression. For these past 9 months I have been unbelievably happy. Good grades, a solid group of friends. Now that I've quit (it's been 2 weeks) my depression and rage has come back stronger than ever. Even my friends are saying that they see my personality changing negatively. They say I was a happy, funny, and overall nice person to be around, but now I'm just extremely depressive and they can see the toll it's taking on me. Another reason I wanted to stop was the guilt I feel for smoking towards my parents. The way I see it is my ID is to smoke and get high, and my super ego is telling me not to. It's a Constant tug of war between the 2 that drains me every day. My question is, do I quit smoking and remain extremely depressed and let my personality become negative again, or do I continue smoking but feel bad due to the harm I feel I am causing my parents. I have a lot of events in my life and my grades are pretty good, but my super ego still punishes my for the harm I feel I've done to them. Thanks for you're time and I appreciate any and all feedback. I really am stuck and don't know what to do at this point. The sadness is sucking the life out of my personality.
