Is this an Addict…..?
Question by : Is this an Addict…..?
a person who used a lot of meth (and other drugs heavily) as a teenager with all the traditional “addict” problems, quit that and was drinking heavily (sometimes with a few other drugs) through college with some addictive behaviors but not really out of control, quit that and has successfully been drinking socially (an occasional binge) for the last 3 years with no addictive behaviors and without following a treatment plan.
When I say traditional “addict” problems I mean everything…urges, physical dependance, denial, doing it alone, obsession, etc. And to clarify the social drinking…its whatever the group is up to…if its long-haul drinking then so be it, if its just a beer or two that’s fine too. But not drinking too often.

Earth’s Angels – Song about the children of Meth Addicts – Buck Norris sings “Earth’s Angels” a song written by my childhood friend, Ronnie Mullins. The song is written from the viewpoint of a child of a parent hooked on Meth. The first picture in video is of Meth children being taking care of by the government after their parents were arrested. I got back in contact with Ronnie in the past week. Ronnie and I were great musical “guitar” buddies in my early teens we spent many an hour playing at this house till early in the morning. “Seems life just got too busy. Been playing much more since I took the postion here at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center. Spent 25 years in the New Mexico State Police. Retired as a narcotics supervisor and the Commander of the Clandestine Laboratory Enforcement Team. For two years I was the National Drug Endangered Children’s Training Coordinator. I wrote a song about children in those horrible situations. Will send it too you when I get back to work. Let me know what you think. As I remember Buck, you always played much better than I and after looking at your great video’s it appears it is status quo. Still play with mom, dad and Charlie from time to time. Play with a group of guys here and have a friend doing his best to make me a better guitar player. God bless….Ron
