REAL STORIES

Age: 17
Gender: female

I have never experimented with drugs or alcohol before, but i went to a party a few months back and someone poured \" tripped C\'s \" in my diet coke which had got me high enough to willingly smoke meth i guess. This was on a Saturday afternoon, woke up in the hospital on Monday afternoon hooked up to i.v with a hospital band around my wrist and my family standing around me balling their eyes out. I have no memory of that weekend after that party or even leaving that party and was told by the doctors i had overdosed on Crystal Meth. I was in shock.. not only had i lost a whole weekend of my life due to memory loss, but i now have to face the withdrawals of meth and the constant struggles of the way the kids at school look at me and talk about me. I get good grades, i\'m not a party girl at all, i\'m 100% catholic and no one especially me, thought i could ever be involved in meth.. i want to share my story because i used to say \" it could never be me\" , but it did, it happened to me and to this day i have no idea what happened when i was on the meth or how or who gave it to me. I could of been raped or who knows what, i also have a video that my dad took of me in the hospital while i was on meth. i was so violent that they had to keep me by myself in a padded room for hours and my dad videoed my behaviors and my face. My eyes were black and i looked so scary. if i show my school and all the other schools who are effected with crystal meth, i hope i can get through to kids that yes it can happen to you, & you should always cover your drink and to never try this drug. . its for life. Its been about 2 months now that I\'ve been out of the hospital and i still have the nightmares and the RLS( Restless leg syndrome ) and the constant shaking of my whole body. i feel sick constantly and thats from just one time of use. I hope this story helps.
