What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia

I'm 17 years old and was recently charged with possession of marijuana and a curfew violation. When searching my car the cop found a few bags, a pill bottle with less than .1g in it, and a bowl with some ash and resin. I was cooperative and the cop allowed me to drive home but followed me and talked to my parents. I still have not recieved a court summons and I will be 18 in about 2 months. Also I have a clean record thus far. What can I expect? What should I do? I was told to get a lawyer and make it look like an ex- drug problem but to make it clear that I am currently under psychiatric care.

Also, I live in va beach, if that matters at all.

Did you receive a ticket or any paperwork?

Whatever the case, you will just have to wait. See what you get in the mail
(if anything) and go from there.
