Does meth change your life forever?
Question by Heatherette: Does meth change your life forever?
Not physically, but mentally?
Even after a meth user has quit, is their life ever really the same psychologically? A few months ago, some very close people in my life had started using. They say they’ve been clean for about 4 or 5 months now, but I’m curious… Do they still think about it everyday? Will their meth “mentality” stay with them for the rest of their lives? Does this drug ruin your life – way of thinking, beliefs?

YES . . very much so.
Let me explain . . 1st the experience of hanging out with a bad bunch of people changes your perspective and not for the better.
Many times drug users don’t change their lives . . and continue down the same path over and over . . justifying that they quit before and the monkey was no longer on their backs
They as a result rarely live good productive lives due to the setbacks and false starts created by drug use.
People who were “addicted” usually face problems, in that they have an affinity to addiction, and it’s very easy to go back.
Many drug users are emotionally stunted and continue to deal with things in a childish manner and act out and hurt themselves and others.
If you haven’t already started . . may I suggest Don’t Start.
If most of your friends or the people you hang with are drug users . . then my advice to you is pick new friends
The choices we make in our youth affect our lives from here on out.
Don’t be a Loser
