It sounds like you need to get serious about getting your life in order than. Quitting a vice is hard, it takes a lot of self-motivation and dedication. If there are people that you are comfortable talking to about this, get their support.

Your old enough to seek a psychologist w/o your parents ever having to know. Seeing someone could be help, they can give you a new perspective to see things and help you work towards returning your life to how it used to be.

Best of luck.
