I myself have never smoked it or anything. But i was definitely affected by it! My parents were on it for 6 years. At first i didnt really notice anything wrong, except that they were never going to bed. But, soon we lost everything. We had to move in this house that had holes in the floors, it had a toilet that never flushed i mean it was just horrible. My mom, had went from such a bubbly person to someone i didnt even know. Before that she had never yelled at me or anything. But when the whole drug thing started it was like someone just tipped my world over. My dad, i didnt even know him at all. everything that my siblings and i did we were ALWAYS in trouble for. They would put us down, yell at us constantly, and we had to do everything. It was a daily thing really, we would get off the bus and my mom would be waiting for us so that she could leave my little brother with me. She would stay gone days at a time leaving me there to take care of my sisters and brothers. Then we moved to another trailer and that was even worse the whole trailer park was on it. we had people coming up in my bedroom at 3 am wakin me up to see if i had some smokes or meth. There was one guy he always came off as weird to me anyways but. it was 4 am and as usual my parents were never home. He came into my bedroom, and I woke up to feeling my pants being pulled down i told him to stop, i cried and pleaded but he never did. He just said "let me get what i want, there has to be some use for you." He raped me 3 times in that one night, and out of all that i had went through that was it, that was the end of the line for me. My parents were never there for me or my siblings. And because of them i was raped 3 times in one night and no one was there to hear my screams. I know have a 5 yr old little girl. Her name is BreAnna. My parents are clean but for me it is a little too late. I am putting my story out here so that you know it doesnt only affect you it affects everyone around you. So think about that.
