I've tried it twice and it's very addictive. The urge to re-dose is so strong it takes a lot of willpower to resist. Also as an introvert it's ability to make me feel confident and outgoing was like finding the answer I'd always been looking for, but it's all a lie and drugs will destroy you. Stay away.

​@@kylewatson6890 Dude, not trIng to be offensive, your body just looks extremely tired on your profile Pic. Maybe it's just the way it is, then no worries! But if it has changed since you started doing meth that's the sign what your inside is looking like. You only have this single life, and if you waste it being addicted your one and only chance, to live a fulfilling life on this earth is wasted!

“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭3:9‬ ‭NIV‬ ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame” Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭19:10‬ ‭ God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved, and have life in Jesus Christ ❤️ Jesus genuinely loves you, and always waits for you to come to Him 💕

My whole life I've dealt with addiction... But it's always the people I love. My uncle... Then my step dad...my friends...My ex husband is addicted to heroine. I have worked with drug addicts and dealt with it for so long. It's killing me watching the people I love the most always die or lose their livelihood to drugs. Now I'm dealing with my daughter's meth addiction... And I'm just so dang tired of it. Addiction doesn't just suck out the life of the addict but everyone who's involved with that addict. It's like a contagious cancer of depression, chaos, and sadness. The worst part is that this "chemical" response is so strong in their brain... They are willing to hurt you and everyone else to get it. I don't understand why anyone ever even tries drugs knowing that it can cause so much pain and destruction.

After a while the sickness wasn't worth the high.

"... after time it will go away." Even if this be true in the case of every single former meth addict (and I haven't seen any evidence that it is), the length of time required to reach such a stage of recovery will undoubtedly vary from one individual to the next. I have known meth addicts who were clean for years and still had cravings, but others who did not. Some have quit meth simply by going to NA, others through other means of abstinence, like rehab or jail. EVERY aspect of addiction, treatment, recovery, etc., is going to be influenced -- even if only slightly, but sometimes very heavily -- by individual differences in personality and so on. Genetics must be accounted for along with environment; a meth addict is a unique human being just like anybody else. There are no universal solutions, but rather only general rules, averages, probabilities, and outliers. Recovery is possible for every meth addict, I think. The question is how and how long. Obviously, current treatment options need to be expanded and built upon, and new approaches experimented with until we get more innovations and breakthroughs, because the meth crisis is still raging. Finally: what about PREVENTION?

@@makaylahoag5272 its unlikely you will die from heroin withdrawal if you're in detox being monitored and have the proper care. in terms of physical withdrawal heroin is worse but once you're off of it, the cravings are nowhere near as strong as meth. there are people sober for 10 years who still end up running right back to meth. its because meth becomes associated with everything pleasurable and it becomes everything you ever wanted, you never forget that feeling.

Never done either but I’d say heroin. Bc you feel like total shit from the withdraws. Like they’re supposed to be extremely painful and miserable af. Meth withdraws on the other hand just makes you feel extremely depressed.

My aunt was addicted to Morphin. The drug was prescribed to her by a doctor when she was in her 30's and she continued getting the prescription until the doctor passed away and my aunt was in her late 60's. By 70, she had no choice but to sober up. My aunt lived to be 83. She looked like an old addict but Morphin didn't kill her right away. It did cause her to lose her hair, to become swollen in her legs, she lost her teeth and was wrinkled in her 40's, and her eyes sunk into her skull. She looked like a walking skeleton from the waist up but she had no leg definition, her knees were no longer visible with the bloating. Her legs were tubular but not fat because she was so underweight.

63 days sober is nothing, esp. If you've used drugs for a long time.. I'm only saying that bc, your brain at 63 days is likely still not recovered at all, and u still have urges and temptations/ thoughts to use all the time.. like she's saying.. some ppl can even have panick attacks and other symptoms for months maybe even a year or more, after stopping meth... it is so addictive that, most ppl literally become addicted after the first use..

I tried meth for about a few months. Didn’t like it to much. My buddy actually gave me some. Like a good amount. A big chunk of rock. Anyway I tried it one day. And didn’t really like it. So I just left it there. Then Covid hit. And I was watching breaking bad. And I remembered I had this meth. So I busted it out and did it for a few months. I don’t know how much is to much as I had never did it. But I thought I was gonna have a heart attack a few times. I didn’t sleep for a few days. And yeah after a while u start seeing stuff. I was trying to sleep and I was seeing evil images. Which is weird cause I’m not into religion or satanic stuff. But there it was clear as day.

But even though that sounds like a meth addiction it wasn’t an obsession just a habit of doing it everyday just like anything else drug wise. I only obsessed for opioids, Cocaine a lot but not as much, and alcohol sometimes

I tried crystal in 1996, twice. Only had fun. That said, it was biker pseudo sh!t. I don't (but want to) understand this "pull" that self-induced schizophrenia has on people. A friend of mine used to dig up his back yard looking for SD cards with ETH passphrases, or so he said. I never saw a single satoshi. He's better now, I guess, and says he'll never go back. I don't fully believe him, and I will not be on his side anymore if he does. If so though, AWESOME. Even sober, dude continues to click his tongue like a speedy individual, iykwim.

​@@jimlewis2395cigarette cravings are bad but I imagine hard drug cravings linger much longer or forever. I quit smoking and had cravings for a couple of years. My husband quit a few years after I did and he still has cravings 15 years later. If he could, he would go back to smoking. I can't imagine meth or heroin being any easier to quit. So maybe the cravings don't go away. Learning to focus on other things will help. Hobbies are a better substitute for addiction.
