I started useing meth when I was 15, because I thaught I was fat, and I had heard that it made you loose weight, I weight 140 , I did meth for a week and I already weighed 118, I was too skinny, but I didnt care! I used meth for 6 ys. I have been clean for 3 years! I used to stay up weeks at a time, and when we would "come down" we would get very ill and everyone would fight. it ruined our relationship. I have been with my husband for 9 years now and weve been through alot, him going to jail, and being set up, spending all the money, getting evicted, not haveing food for our children, but one day I just decided that I would rather sleep than stay awake all night, so I quit, I still have craveings, and when its offered to me, its hard to turn down, but I just remember God and my children and it makes it easier! but now I weigh 180 since ive been clean and it makes me depressed sometimes and I think "maybe just long enough to loose weight, but if I do I know I wont be able to stop!...I still feel the affects of meth everyday, not being able to concetrate, forgeting everything, and being almost emotionless on somedays... and I used 2 do meth with my half brother, he would stand in the mirror picking his skin with a knife saying something was growing on him , it looked awful, he sat at the window with a gun out the window ready to shoot everyone, he even tried to kill me becaude he thaught I was setting him up and that I had planted drugs on him and in his truck ... he sat in his truck for 2 days trying to find the "camera" he thaught I put in there... so please, to everyone, think about what meth does to your body, and your life, and your family!!
