I don't know how to talk to new people and it's genuinely going to be my downfall.

I'm so lonely to the point of me thinking that unblocking my manipulative ex is a good idea, she was the only person to have said "I love you" and it felt true even though I was basically just her very own dopamine farm.

There's this other girl that I think might have an interest in me, like some things she does that I think might be IOIs are as follows: greets me whenever possible in an enthusiastic manner even though I hardly talk to her, insisted on taking pictures with me at prom (she was the only person to take pictures with me and even my best friends didn't), continued trying to talk to me for her class president run and asking for my advice even though I know little to nothing about being a class president, ect.

I don't know how to talk to her, I don't know how to talk to new people and I fucking hate it.

I know, I really shouldn't even look my ex's way.
But I just don't know what to even say if I tried to talk to the new girl, I get frightened by worrying too much about "is this next thing that I'm gonna say weird and high inhibition?"
 
drugs and exposure therapy
I already smoke weed basically on the daily that helps out with that and I'm known as the school stoner, but I can't really talk to people when I'm not high. And I think this new girl is a stereotypical "god loving woman farmer girl" and I'm not sure if she knows that I smoke, which could definitely be a HUGE dealbreaker for her.
So I'm low-key fucked.

She greets you and you barely talk. That’s high ioi if she ain’t doing it to everyone mf. Just ask her out

She doesn't do this to other people to my knowledge, and I found it very odd that she planned on taking flics w me at prom like a week prior while my friend and I were making plans to ditch prom.

Shit maybe you're right and I'm overthinking it.

Weed is terrible for your cognition and it's sometimes anti anxiolytic.

Massive Failo
This is not a good thing, people view you as less

Pregabalin, Baclofen, GB-115 + Bromantane, Memantine, Alcohol (occasionally)

If I stop smoking weed I lose at least like 4 friends of my ≈7 probably and I don't stop because I don't have a set reason to do so tbh

On the fallio. Yeah maybe, but at least I'm popular for something, before that most people used to not even acknowledge my existence

I'm aware weed is bad for cognition so I take several month breaks at times just to get a bit of a reset, and in my head I don't think it would effect me as much as the average person because I have an IQ of almost 30 points higher than the American average

I would take pregab but I heard there are some serious side effects. I also don't have access to anything but alcohol, because I don't know where I would source it from. Not to mention that I'm not trying to go to school drunk ash just so I can talk to people sometimes. I also don't have that much money to pay for the alcohol that I would need to make me feel the effects of it due to my naturally high tolerance for it so i just defaulted to weed because it's cheaper than alcohol and I don't have a high tolerance for it. If you could lead me to the sources I'd happily take the other stuff tho.

If they stop being friends with you because you stop a certain activity they were never your friends in the first place.

Also there not even high value friends, your choosing them over yourself.

bro just quit
any amount of THC is terrible for you, I recommend you start a weed recovery nootropic stack rn

like what lol?
it’s a extremely safe drug

+ Alcohol is pretty shit I shouldn’t have even included, also it’s not an everyday thing. Specifically only reserved for social events.
