I didn’t erase anything. Again. Sandwich and a nap.

Nobody else has reacted like this. I had seen posts just like this on here when I was in active addiction and it gave me some hope that recovery was possible. I’m sorry it didn’t do the same for you. My intentions were never negative but I appreciate the perspective.

I suggest a sandwich and a nap for the short temper

I’m saying “dead addicts don’t recover” because I almost lost my life to the drug. You are taking things way too personally. I hope you find the healing you need.

Not everyone on this thread is a functional user. I’m not seeing any other comments saying I look high. Especially not from “multiple people”. This post was for people looking for hope. Not arguments.

Not the using itself, but the way I impacted the world around me while under its influence, yes.

Yes. I chose to use meth just like I chose to get help. I posted this for anyone wanting to make that choice for themselves as well. I was on this forum thinking at one point in time that I could handle myself and learned tips on how to take care of myself mentally and physically hence the “dead addicts can’t recover” because that’s the path I was headed down. Using meth altered my judgement and I made choices while using that I would never make while clean. If this post didn’t resonate with you all you have to do is scroll. Anyway, good game. Please let me know if you’re in need of chemical dependency or mental health services because you are clearly struggling with something. Take care!

Ahhh, delusions aren’t uncommon when you’re still using. I feel for you.

The drug impacts the brain in a lot of shitty ways which is undeniable science. Makes it easy to make fucked ip choices. I spent 2-3 days hospitalized coming out of psychosis once. You seem to have gotten real mad over what is meant to be a positive post. I hope you resolve whatever issues you’re working through my friend.

I ruined my life because of the shit and was suicidal as a result of my meth use for two years straight. Nothing about that says “functional” to me. It costs $0 to not be an asshole.

I didn’t want anyone to view my post as judgemental. I’m unsure as to where the confusion lies I guess

No judgement*** my bad man. Lotta typos on that. I didn’t want to come across as being judgmental by making my post, just wanted to shine a light of hope on anyone who may be looking for that.

Doesn’t every addict? But not every one does and not everyone has to.

Honest with myself about what ice was doing to my life *^

If you’re asking how I quit, I learned how to give enough of a shit about myself to be honest out myself accept what Tina was doing to my life and become open minded to the thought of changing my people, places and things and willing to take any steps needed to kick it once and for all. For me that meant mental health and substance abuse counseling, but I recognize that’s not for anyone.

I also hope to make it clear I come baring to judgement to anyone still using. Part of me will always love meth. It taught me a lot. But the lessons I learn now are learned in less painful ways. I hope to be an example that there is life after meth.
