      Honestly the way meth works he probably turns into a mute. In people who are fast normally, they tend to slow down on meth. That’s why normal people take it to speed up.

    I dealt keys of coke for about 5 years and was in the crazy drug life for nearly 30 years total. I did all kinds of crazy schit. I remember beating my self up when the birds started chirping at daylight. I have so many embarrassing memories. The shame and regret was endless and in the end I was morally bankrupt and lost everything. I've been chemical free for 12 years and Dont miss that life anymore at all.

      underrated TOO much.
      yall know the way it says "not even once" ? there's a reason for that. 1st line, was just half a dose and i was hooked for 3 years. by 2nd year it was smoking out of tin foil. and by year #3 the needle stuck out of my arm. which i said 2 years ago i would not do even if one paid me for it... eventually my body was so weak and ruined, taking any amount led to OD, i'd be throwing up acid to the point where i pass out. it was so frightening i realised in the middle of major meth psychosis that I'm on the blink of extinction so i went cold turkey (:` it was extremely hard, but the other option was to take it and throw up acid, so that had me motivated :)

    I totally identify, I was a 15 year , high functioning, meth addict and have been (not necessarily sober) but at least free of hard drugs like meth, coke etc. since 2007. Yes, have destroyed and rebuilt several times. I am now (fortunately) happier and in better health than I have ever been. It's too bad I had to spend most of my life trying to prevent bad behavior rather than improving on my better attributes. Anyway, it's always good to hear when someone makes it out of it.

      If you wanted to go back to your old meth habit, you couldn't. That meth no longer exists, the stuff out now is made differently and it causes instant psychosis and permanent brain changes from few uses. It's like meth, but just the bad side.

    Recently dated an addict and had to cut it off. He’s still trying to come back, apologizing for his behavior while on it, etc. Exposed me to meth, presumably inadvertently. The allure of the high is nothing short of a spiritual battle. What you said about building stuff up then tearing it back down resonated with me. He has the golden touch but won’t stop sabotaging the sh*t out of his life. I still have feelings for him but denied them all when I told him to F off. He’s been addicted for 20 years. I was naive to think he would leave it.

A friend of mine's dad was kind of an old partier and quite a bit older than I was and he told me the list of names of all the cool kids that were a little older than me you know I'm 21/22 and these people are like making it to 35 and 45 maybe 50 in front of me and dying and I know they smoked weed and had a pretty loose lifestyle had some girlfriend problems. My friend's dad told me his greatest blessing was that he did not like any of that powder s*** and other people liked it and it was bad news. The bad news was all those people that I thought were so cool we're cocaine's and that's why they were high energy and fun to hang around with and I didn't do any of it I did it just wasn't my thing I didn't have any money I'm poor. I'm so glad you got away from that because those addicts will straighten up and pull somebody back and use them to party harder. If it doesn't kill you outright early.

      Put high as fk on ice.. to saturated levels the pleasure is unbelievable.. 11 out.of 10.

    Your stories and perspective are so helpful to people struggling with addictions and recovering. Many people don’t know that relapse is a part of the recovery process. Very few people just get clean without falling off the wagon a time or twenty. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to put it all out there for the world to see.

      Actually it's not a drug from the devil. You should never take a drug without understanding what it is and without a medical need to. Methamphetamine stimulates your brain to create a natural chemical, which the brain already produces. Some people with specific neurological deficiencies are prescribed methamphetamine so that they can function normally. Anytime that you put something into your body that it doesn't need you're going to feel terrible!

At 22 I went to rehab in another state and everyone thought I moved away. Haven’t really had many close friends since and 47 now. It has directly and indirectly affected my whole adult life. I did it a little again in college in my late 20s but haven’t touched it since about 2003. I think I liked the fun care free use, but once the fiends started coming out I was done with that world. I’ve had issues with other substances since, but glad I dodged the meth bullet.

I've had long time periods in total sobriety but what ends up bringing me back to the hard stuff is alcohol. It's happened multiple times. Nobody to blame but myself.. it's a faulty coping mechanism. The key I'm realizing though is to pick ourselves up after a lapse or relapse.. I used to beat myself up so bad after I had a relapse, have had a few lol, but beating myself up just keeps me stuck. Nobody's perfect.. we all make mistakes.. self forgiveness is super important and I'm going to be exercising that right now. Again thanks for the words of encouragement.. keep making these vids man

    We were all smoking weed (classic military leave drug) and I did not know what meth was, so I was cool with it.
    He did the lightbulb thing. Cracked it open, cooked the powder and hit it with a pen shaft.

    If that's your worst experience, that's not near as bad as things could have been. Stay sober. Go to meetings. God bless.

      Comparison is a thief of joy, and it can also be used to diminish people's experiences that we deem "oh it could've been worse" . Doesn't matter if it could be worse. It could've been better too. Don't try to take away from someone else's real life experience

    Great content! You learned similar to me that drugs leads to death!...Lets face it, sober is more boring but one does live longer and does not lose everything that is near and dear to them!
