Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns.

I went through your details. I suggest you to keep calm. Youngsters like you are supposed to be interested in so many things. Studies, career, games, entertainment, opposite sex, porn, substance abuse etc. During adolescence, all these are normal and most of the so called negative behavior prop up because of the inherent risk - taking mentality. Such attitude dies down when they understand the reality and become aware. When awareness desends, they start concentrating on their education and career. That is developmental path. In my opinion you are on the right path. Be aware of these habits and problems. Keep those habits which keeps you happy and leave the other. Once you concentrate on your education and career, your obsessions and addictions slowly gets erased.

In case if you need more of my services in this regard, please post a direct query. I am happy to reply you.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
