Does this still affect you now?

I was given many (weed, alcohol, cocaine, molly, date rape drugs, poppers, viagra, probably other stuff...) to make my abuse easier, and I still really like drugs. I got sent to rehabs for teens but it's really pointless...

my mom called me ugly when i was little i think she did it to hurt me what should i do ?
