Hooked, by the meth monster

[abi]

Hi

It's a vicious cycle for meth addicts .This drug is so powerful
that it scares me.Meth has the most influencial part of yourself hooked to it. Your mind
and everything you have dreamed of and all the pain,fear,joy u experienced in ur life,gets exposed when on a high.Sometimes its feels like life is great,ur confident and overjoyed ,proud to be who u are.
Then shortly after' The complete opposite of those feelings and beliefs, take over ur thoughts that just intensifies and usually paranoia-depression follows. Meth makes its users vulnerable to all important aspects of success + happiness. That's just one of the very many
things meth does to you when using/binging.'

I am not a meth user but I know few people who are using meth. i find them very strange. they look very confident about life and happy but after some time their outlook about life completely changed and feel ver insecure and sad. I feel very sorry about Meth users.

i was on librium 4 the alcohol withdrawels, an now cut bk to 1 a day, but i have been canning the speed as replacement 4 drink, i guess this is to do with the dopamine thing, i usually do couple a gramms a week, but have ben doin more, but now i sem to b drinking again, not as much an i havent started in the mornings again yet, but craving is there, im at a loss of how to break the cycle, how can i find a healthy dopamine/endorphine kick!:eek:

Its typical with any drug. First a hit with all the feeling of euphoria and what follows next is completely opposite. But with meth its more dangerous coz its effect is more damaging in the sense that it makes a man more prone to addiction than anything else.

Hi my name is Tiffany, I am going to be 20 on the 15th next month, I just recently quit using meth:D because two days ago I was released from the hospital due to my kidneys and I got scared! I am/was an addict and its been two weeks since my last "high". While on "dope" I was probably just 16 and I started to date a 34 year old man of whom to which almost killed me and wouldn't let me leave him but I thought he loved me and boy was I wrong!!!! I thought I was pretty and skinny and I was but I am healthy and pretty now or not yet but getting Healthy but pretty I am:p I am thankful that I stopped doing meth because while with that 34 year old man I started using a needle to inject my drugs and that was sooooo scary:eek: I loved it so much and I enjoyed hurting my body......
I felt untouchable for about 5 hours then I would start to come down off meth and I would cry:( and hate myself and people would give me more drugs for free just to lift my spirits or at least thats how it felt like I was happy again getting clean is easy you just have to be ready if your not then your not thats all you can say but if anyone needs a friend or anything i can always use the support and friendship....... Anyways thanks for listemning to my story and Thank GOD that I am stablizing and I won't fuck up again.............

The reason it is so powerful is because it is a man made drug. There is nothing natural about this drug and the things that do go into this is what makes it so addcitive.

It is man made and it is a psychostimulant which is generally strong as compared to other drugs. Meth works by mimicing the effect of hormone Adrenaline and noradrenaline.
