LIFE ON CRYSTAL METH
Life on crystal meth begins with a glorious feeling of pleasure from
the first hit.
Life on crystal meth begins with a glorious feeling of pleasure from
the first hit.
As you try to recreate that euphoric feeling by smoking, eating or
injecting more each time, you soon find yourself in a new group of
friends.
You and your supermodel-thin pals are able to party all night long on
the cheap high. Yet you're still able to function normally in your job
or school. And soon you too are gaining the meth-using benefits of
weight loss as you shed pounds without having to work out or diet.
But that is just one side of crystal methamphetamine. That is the
attractive and addictive side.
Along with losing your love handles and saggy stomach, you lose your
own attractiveness. Your teeth start to yellow and rot from your
mouth. Your skin forms numerous scabs, which are caused by your new
habit of picking at your skin until it bleeds. Your eyes, which dart
back and forth in your head, are sunken with dark circles around them.
All of this combined makes you look aged and worn out.
And as you look around at your so-called friends and down at the drug,
you realize that is all you have.
You've lost your job, your money, your real friends, your family and
your life.
All of it for meth.
