It's realyl good that your scared!. beucase your scared you will be less inlined to make stupid decisions to smoke drink have sex and stuff!. I felt the exact same way in middle school and decided i'd be cool in highschool by doing varsity lacrosse and yearbook and stuff!. I never went to the parties and did crazy stuff!. but i still fit in beucase people liked me for who i was!. Senior year at the end of the year i went to a few parties and drank and had a good time!. but at that point i felt old enough to have good judgement, and the fac that i had not done crazy things for all the rest of highschoola nd i demonstrated self control let me relax and enjoy myself!. now that im in my frist year of college I go out to party mabey once a month!. I have LOTS of friends and do things all the time btu it's not always things that are risky!. im still a virgin and guys don't look down on me and i don't feel pressure to have sex!. you jstu have to be yourself!. it is very hard to feel relaxed when you knwo the rest of your life is out there waiting!.!.!.Soemtimes I still lay in bed a night crying wondering what the heck im donig with my life and if im living it the way i should be and want to be!. everyone has those days!. hope you're mind can rest easy!. and remember that no one really likes people that are fake and do things just to fit in!. You're better than that!. I know that beucase you are asking this question, you're not loike al those other pregnant drinking idiots that didn't even think twice about it!. :] hope your life turns out great!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's wonderful that you're thinking about those things ahead of time!.

The bottom line is that YOU get to make the choices for your life!. All of the things you mentioned are choices that people make for themselves, and thinking about it ahead of time and making a plan for what is important to you and what you will and will not do is one of the most important things you can to to prevent getting caught in sticky situations!. People make choices to have sex or not to have sex and they get pregnant when they are not educated about how to prevent pregnancy or take the proper precautions (even though nothing is 100% guaranteed effective)!. People make the choice to do drugs or to smoke and they make the choice to be friends with people who do the same things!.

The best thing to do is to surround yourself with friends who have the same values you do and who will not pressure you into doing things you don't want to do!. Make your decisions, have good reasons why you believe those things for yourself, and then stick to what is important to you and you will be just fine!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't freak out about growing up! I know exactly what you mean because I was petrified of going into 9th grade!. But that's the thing that once you get to 8th grade and are the oldest class in middle school, you are totally going to love, so to speak, the 'power' of being older!. Afterwards comes another freaking out phase of being the youngest in high school, but don't worry, that will pass quicker than you can say "I'm in high school"!. Then you're going to get in the swing of high school and you are going to love it!. Don't hurry through it, though! Take your time with everything in high school, because when you're done with it, you will want to do it all over again!.!.!. don't get me wrong- college if fun as can be!. For example right now you are probably thinking that you will never take up smoking, and not even try it, but trust me - you will try it!.!.!. sooner or later!.!.!. i know there is a lot of peer pressure for all of your above mentioned worries (smoking, drugs etc!.) but in the end its your choice and your choice only what you decide to do!.
hope all goes well and good luck!

you have to know what you want and don't want!. Peer pressure is really intense especially in high school and it can be really hard to say no sometimes!. Find good supportive friends that are okay with you not drinking, smoking, having sex or what ever else is "cool" that week!.

There are times when you are going to feel you need to do things just to fit in and you probably will make mistakes!. Your parents are probably the last people you want to talk to, but they can surprise you sometimes!. They have been there and know what it's like!. If don't want to talk to your parents about stuff try a sister, aunt or older friend of the family!.

As hard as it was being a teenager, I loved high school!. I did make mistakes and I did some things I probably shouldn't have, but it didn't ruin my life!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay well i am 16 and i am in 10th grade!. I am very shy and i was nervous bout high school, but it is not that bad!. Just picture your skewl now, but only bigger, and with older people!! lol!.!. their are drugs, sex, and other things, you just need 2 make sure that you are not gonna be influenced to do anythin you would not like to do, ummm well also pick your frends good!. it is not that bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well from a high school students point of view!.!.!.!.
Actually high school isn't too bad!.!.!.sure times you have ppl you know that actually smoke and drink and even do drugs!.!.!.but yeah its nothing scary!.!.!.!.if you see ppl with drugs and stuff like that!.!.!.well try going to your classes in the school!.!.!.!.

but kids know better than to get near the school with drugs and stuff!.!.!.!.!.i should know!.!.!. my teacher actually tells our class he's actually caught kids going off to the school baseball dugouts and behind the school barn and stuff and get them expeld and well that's (and really good distance away from the school)!.!.!.!.so as long as you keep away from places you could expect kids doing drugs, then you should be fine!.!.!.!.

and also kids also wouldn't do drugs and stuff at school out of all the places to do it!.!.!.so yeah you should be safe just like me!. ;DWww@Answer-Health@Com

sweetie, don't worry!.
you don't have to do any of those things!. it all depends on who you are as a person and what you're interested in!. don't follow the crowd, all that stuff will just create huge problems for you!. peer pressure is when your schoolmates pressure you to do things that are "cool", don't give in to that, you know what's right for you!. you're smart, don't worry!. take things one step at a time, and you won't mess up your life!. and even if you do make a couple mistakes, it doesn't mean your life will be ruined!.
as for college, if you stay smart, and choose the right people and place to be in or be with, you'll love it!.

good luck, hun!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am also in 7th grade!.!.!. Take deep breaths and relax!. If you make the right choices in high school and not go having sex with random people and not being torn apart by peer pressure(for example someone ask you to smoke)and not listen to them and do other bad things then you will be fine!.


good luck =DWww@Answer-Health@Com

i know but just because other people are making the wrong choices doesn't mean you have to just have things to occupy your mind with don't let people make choices for you i have to do extra activities to keep my self from doing some of the wrong things just think about after school programsWww@Answer-Health@Com

You can make your own choice!. It's not that highschool brainwashes you and makes you a drug addicted, pregnant, smoker!. You have to learn to say no to those things and deal with peer pressure!.

and yeah, college is better, i'm in my last semester now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Bah, you worry too much!. I went through high school, intentionally did not have a girlfriend so I wouldn't have sex, and avoided all that stuff!. it's really easy!. Just find a group of friends like you, and spend most of your time with them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its not hard, you just don't go sleeping around and you don't give in to peer pressure!. Only YOU can ruin your life, no one else!. & College is even better than highschool, trust me, i know!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was so afraid to!.
But trust me you can get by!.
Just know how to say no, both to sex and drugs!.
