Question by flc31390: Why do meth addicts steal the most useless things?
When i use to hang out with my older sister before she got too strung out on meth i noticed her and her other meth addict friends would steal the most POINTLESS things. I know you shouldnt steal regardless but what was their purpose? They would steal old christmas cards & ribbons and just stuff that made no sense. How would this benefit them any? I could understand them stealing money for drugs but cards and bobby pins?? And do ALL meth addicts steal anything they can get their hands on even if its pointless?

When they are high they don’t have any sense of value. So they steal it for more drugs thinking it is of value. This my friend, is YOUR BRAIN ON DRUGS.
