In 2019 i was a daily meth, heroin, benzo user in southern California. Thats the most insane combo to be hooked on. At certain points i added barbiturates to the mix. We called meth either clear or shit. Can i get some clear? Can i get some shit? I went to detox/rehab 3 times that year. I detoxed in a facility or at home probably 5 times that year. My family was telling my fiancé to leave me. I wasn't allowed at my daughters 3rd birthday. In October i went to a rehab in south central LA and was put on buprenorphine. Ive been clean ever since, got a good job, got married, got a nice apartment with my now wife and daughter(7 years old now). I will have 4 years clean this October.
I would love to chat with u about how u feel day in day out. Ive lived in apple valley and big bear, so u know how much it costs to have a home on top of that beautiful mtn. Ive lost everything but the day i started doing it i looked mysf in the mirror Nd said, " if u dont stop now, your going to lose it all, whether ppl know your doing it, u hurt sum1 due to falling asleep, heart attacks, etc., but i was telling myself that just by sheer Karma and thr stigma around that hardcore drug will take everything whether your functional or not
i feel like all those drugs would cancel each other out and you'd just end up feeling pretty good but pretty normal. That's a hell of a combo. Glad you recovered.
I was addicted to meth for eight months originally... I quit and was sober for about a year... got my life back on track and everything in order. bought a truck on Facebook there was a meth pipe in the glove box... I relapsed and I've been doing meth again for about a year. my life is still in order I still have my job I still have my apartment I still have my things but I'm worried about my health and I want to quit. im 21 years old.

@@malbers35 Hoi. Actually, i WAS doing GREAT. But there have been some Family Members with Evil intent that continue to harrass me and start rumors about me to get other family members to Hate me. I left all this behind and was doing so well. But i came back to care for a Family member who almost died. Big Mistake... It was too late by the time i realized i had just come back to my life full of Narcissists, a sociopath and a few Well Meaning Enablers. It took a few months for me to finally get pulled into their tangled mess of toxic “Yuck”. That was 3 years ago. I am NOT doing well. 😑 (thanks for asking) 😕 Strange how because of my demented family members, I feel more at ease talking to a complete stranger than i do to the people ive been closest to my entire life. 😅 Over the last 3 years i got sucked deep into Meth again. But a lot has been revealed that needed to be during this time. And there were some Healings that took place that might not have otherwise. So these 3 years haven’t been a complete loss. And a particular mission completed, other than to nurse my sick relative back to health. (...just to have him treat me horribly again🤦🏻♀️) I have decided to leave once again for the final time. I am going to quietly pack my belongings and stick them in storage, while slowly weaning myself off Meth and then the next drama that happens... I will just get in my car and Drive away... *Big Sigh. Yeah so although i am using again, i do in deed have a plan to get away from the toxic and evil people once and for all! Thanks again checking on me. I so appreciate it. 😊 Ps. A lot of non drug users think that all “User’s” are just like the Stereo types that we see plastered all over you tube or on the streets of San Fransisco or Philly and everywhere in between😳. But that’s just NOT the case at all. There are functioning attics. For a lot of Meth Users it started with the desire getting “F...... UP” , ot because of the initial sensations there is a great number of peopld who try it just to experience that aspect of it . And although that experience is real and true. That aspect of it dies over time. And instead you find your self uding it just to wake up in the morning or to keep going in the afternoon. And that is how it continues until you quit For me and i’m sure there are others as well...Using Meth was about needing some energy after being continually Traumatized and Depleted of any giddy up in my Get up...😵💫 It was also just as much about killing the pain and the memories and escaping this reality that I didn't feel I could escape from. It helped me be a functioning human in the depths of psychological and emotional abuse. And the side effects were just a perk. Until they Were no longer. Thats all i Got and its a lot! 😂 {{ I feel like this must be what a person sounds like in a Confessional at a Catholic Church. 😅}}
Hanging there we are people who are going to make it no matter what I can relate to you no matter how long or good I done or do it just never is enough can't do good good enough and can't do bad enough. There's always evil present when you do good
Wow! My sister just died of organ failure due to about 30 years of meth use or abuse or addiction. I'm not sure what to call it. But, I cut all contact 10 years ago due to the abusive behavior. She was 58. Now, my brother shows up with the same issue. He is 61. This presentation is really enlightening. It explains what I'm dealing with or cutting off contact from dealing with. I'm in recovery from weed. Took about 6 weeks to feel right. I need a copy of the slides used in this presentation. It will take 2 years of my brother being clean before he normalizes,,,IF he doesn't use again. Wow! I'm going to need a stronger sponsor to handle this or a few sponsors.
Im with ya on that some of the weed going around now was having a completly different affect on me then what i was smoking 5 /10 yrs ago , finally had enough gave it up a mo ago feeling little better every day✌️
@@fishfire_2999 ya lots of people are growing with chemicals. That organic stuff is the good stuff, thats why i grow my own Lolo. Glad you could quit without losing your shxxt. Its not as bad as people make it out to be. They should try getting off of this meth or some heroin. Now that's hell. ✌️
I did meth one time and it was the withdrawal or the terrible down that I felt after coming down that convinced me to never do it again. Wish you could have discussed this horrible effect more. Thanks
Naomi's skin over the withdrawal and side effects. There's a reason people don't quit taking stuff is because the world turns into a living hell for months until your brain recalibrates
Absolutely… I did meth for 3 days once and felt like a super depressed zombie for weeks… the most insane level of depression ever imaginable. Complete lack of dopamine, nothing in the world could give you the slightest joy, thought I would never be the same. I barely feel normal now and it’s been about 2-3 months… research suggests I’ll need another 2 months to reach normal dopamine levels. It was one of the worst things I’ve ever been through… not to mention the days after I quit I felt my breathing cycle slower than normal, heart beat going fast, brain feeling fried, liver feelings overrun… holy cow I’ll never leave marijuana again.
the true makeup of actual meth is no longer available, and the fact that it's now a misdemeanor- as opposed to a felony- [across the board] should be the first indication that it no longer exists, just the over played out, stigma on this one
I agree with you. It is played out to cover up our governments part of the opioid epidemic. They still say meth is the biggest problem. Um NO, fentanyl is. The fact they shift the blame tells me they're still not willing to take their part of the blame for millions of deaths. And if there is any meth overdoses it's because its cut with fentanyl. Just like the Oxycodone, the heroin and now the fentanyl- very few get help because a person has to be in jail to get a bed date for a state funded treatment center. Our jail is a revolving door for people smoking the "blues". In one day and out the next. Nobody is getting help and addicts are dying. Now that's a big deal-!!
I’m curious. Can doctors use prescription amphetamines such as Vyvanse to help ease withdrawal symptoms? Seems like a better way than going cold turkey.
It would normally lead to abuse of that substitute. I believe doctors also like to avoid giving a medication to that person that had an addiction too. Personally, I think something like you said could help some way.
@@Devon202since speed is not physically addictive, its unnecessary to use another drug to come off of it. People use meth as a coping mechanis, because most of us have childhood trauma of some kind. Its used daily to feel normal(after a while of use), and because of the large amount of dopamine release, your body can no longer be happy with a regular amount of it.
Tried meth once. It was nice, however the comedown was no worth it. Most things don’t make me withdraw after one use but meth did. I can see why so many people loose their life’s to it. I can also see why my cousin gave his life for it. It’s the sad truth
I did an experiment to prove that you could control it, but in the end I was hearing music and evil sounds coming from heaters and vents, followed by nausea and vomiting . not sure what the the draw to this poison is?
that's not the substance being poisonous it's your mind being weak because stopping or enabling those types of negative thoughts ineffective is possible and controllable. Just takes a strong, experienced, or a non dark thought/energy centered mind.
The effects that Meth has on people is unique to each individual. Because of this, It’s going to affect Each of us differently. As well as how well we took cqre of ourselves (or Not) while we were using. I use to combat my bad choices with daily Vitamins, Green Smoothies, Healthy Food, Excersise, and i made sure i slept every single night. 5-6 years into using, I was as Breautiful asbefore i started using. After that it was still an extremely sloe process of aging or not looking as good as i did. What did me in was when my Sister ruined my reputation and Far and wide. Instead of just comkng to me and saying hey whats going on ? I heard ...(...) She blasted the information to anyone who would listen and added all kinds of fabricqted stories. People shunned me. I was persecuted. My entire life was turned upside down and inside out. And it hasnt stopped. I stopped taking vitamins, stopped my dance classes, stooped taking care of myself completely because of what my sister did to me. Not bc i was using the drug. I was using but i wasnt always hoing to use. When she did what she did to me...that changed how i used. It changed the reason i reaced for the pipe. It then beecame something i needed to drown out this world i exist in and cope with the stress.
I think your numbers on meth use in America are really low! Also the no eating thing psssstttt... the people I know, that use regularly all eat normally and get 4 to 6 hours of sleep during a 24 hour period.
@@thunderlol4 most people that do it you can't tell the ones that look like junkies are lacking in one or more of the following: Food , water , and SLEEP
They eat regularly because the ingredients into meth are different than they used to be so it doesn't make you lose your appetite, doesn't keep you awake for multiple hours. It is a crappy drug anymore! Nothing pure out there!
Notice the ease in which he speaks about experiments done on all types of animals!!!! What a cold and clueless person!!! Yet another example as to why this world is so screwed up. So much animal abuse and no empathy at all! I will always be a smoker and an addict for these reasons. Just to many dumb people in this world for me to handle. Why not experiment on all the dumb people,leave all the animals out of it.
I agree! Leave the animals alone. Don’t make the animals pay for human problems. There are more than enough human addicts who will probably volunteer if you give them free drugs
Can anyone answer my question? So I was 8 months sober 😔 before relapsing again only lasted 3 days using and awake snapped out of it and went straight for the crash it was horrible 😢 I am now 5 days sober sadly but do you know if the 8 months that I had originally makes a difference?.
I smoked meth every day for 7 years I've been cleaned for 2 months I cannot do anything Except sleep I don't have health insurance or a job Or transportation Seriously thinking about going back to smoking again
i have been smoking for a year. when i started, someone older than me told me just snort it don’t start smoking it or you won’t want to snort it anymore. he was right, when i just snorted it, it was just a weekend thing. started smoking it and been everyday for a year now. i have a natural dopamine deficit is why i started, just lil bit here and there. first couple times going out at night we’re great. mind was relaxed and i was focused. a month or 2 after that, i was on the “stay up late so just a little line in the morning so i can get through work day” cycle
Junkies like who? Dont talk about junkies or make fun of them or you might become one someday. Why do You and Many Judgemental people put down drug addicts a d make fun of people who overdose??? Your A cold hearted Person , MR. Perfect person
Not sure why the druggie replied to me so aggressively and then deleted his reply when I wasn't talking specifically to him unless he's the person in this video which he doesn't look like it but then again meth is a hell of a drug
The speaker should leave the charts up while discussing them. Instead flashing them for a few seconds then the camera is immediately back on him. It's difficult to understand what he's explaining without looking at the charts. I don't need to see him talking.
i did meth once, first time it hit, i thought i knew everything about meth. so i put together a power point full of things i thought were true but really i was just a guy talking really fast and uhhhhhnotbreakingupwordsummmmm

Great question,,,thats all,,,however I should note since youtubes inception, Ive not said that to anyone until now...tip of the cap to you good sir...A very Very good question indeed.,,your a go getterr Keith,,I can tell youll do well with this firm...
Meth is not as pleasant as they make it seem. It gets you high , I'm no expert dopamine seems to be more about craving (the things we find pleasant are more likely to spike our levels, maybe due to anticipation as well) nevertheless meth is not as pleasant as the experts say
I’m a current meth user, I’ve quit before but I don’t have a year of sobriety. I gained all of my weight back from before meth use and then some. Tbh I don’t want to quit even when faced with all of the health facts. Looking at me, you’d never think I was an addict. I hate people who have no personal experience with it, so judgmental. 🤦🏼♀️ The stigma around meth addiction is sickens me, that’s honestly most likely what stops me from having a desire to get clean. I’m not a tweaker, I sleep every night and I function at a normal level so for me stopping does not seem very desirable.
Yeah I'm the same way and have been dojng it and hiding that I'm a drug addict since I was teenager I'm 37 now and still use it daily along with oxys and I married with three kids and own 2 business and as far as I know my wife doesn't know either
Apparently the people in this thread are doing a different type of meth then the one im framilliar with, sleeping evry night ? 3 meals a day?Functioning at a normal level ? Def not same s***.
No eating means a shittier high. Your body got no energy to make energy from. You’ll be alot higher if you weren’t starving though but I digress you can’t say shit when it comes with appetite suppressants like crystal
These are absolute lies and fallacies regarding the minds of men; but I never would expect the man with a carnal understanding to understand what's spiritual. That mind, wherein you hold memories, is the real you. That which influences the mind to do good is good, and that which influences the mind to do evil is evil. And the mind (the real you) will be affected by the things done in the body, whether it is good or whether it's is evil. Your brain is in communication with your members only, as a nervous system; thoughts and imaginations have nothing at all to do with the brain other than it reaping consequences for ones actions done in the body. For instance; when one takes drugs, the mind may be affected because it is a consequence for what was done in the body, things that should not have been done. Such as the affects of "being high", that is a consequence for doing what should not be done in your body.
🚫🗣️💩!! Ignorance is a choice. It's a super easy fix though, step 1. Remove head from anus. 2 educate yourself Repeat steps until you've successfully EVOLVED!!!
My experence the use off meth, my brain at times would have the same struggle as alzheimers deases , we're eventually you forget how to breath, once the high.weres off I mean, so I don't won't others to experence it,, once the addiction takes hold it is unpredictable were a normal sitting off useing in a moment crosses the line were it is to late, the deases is secretly there. The dopamine weres off suddenly Eventually you would forget to know how to breath, is the horrible fight you'd experience.wile awake and conscience , i personaly think you can be normal one day and experence alsymis deasese in one day . I kn9w why we do it, the high or addiction won't change anything, the high makes you feel like there is someone with you , a sexual feeling but at times the comedown leaves you satisfied as we all are lonely.we will have no will , even i couldn't scare myself off off the high that we feel we all die, but like you I am putting myself in a state off anxiety, we're my information won't help the dopamine fix, I should not put a person in a state off panic, but who knows the truth with why not many people die from meth, bexuase it's not the meth but the deasese. That kills
I feel sorry for those addicts forced to get hooked! But anyone who chooses to do this to themselves of own free will deserves their abnormal dysfunctional brains! I got a gaggle of nieghbor addicts real nasty ones I'm forced to deal with right now. Very unpleasant to say the least. Let's just stick em on an island somewhere and be done with them!
But did they choose the genetics or childhood trauma that made them more susceptible to look for the relief that drugs such as methamphetamine provide? Of course not.
I gave this presentation a 4 . On a scale from 1 to 10 . I cant believe you said the real question is why wouldnt anyone do meth? Isnt that your purpose for this youtube video. You may want to delete that on the powerpoint. That could influence the people who are listening to you.
Yeah... going to the doctors anymore usually leans me toward being more curious of whatever his or her diagnoses might be. I get they're doing the best that they can... but efficacy of feeling good about my health doesn't come from a guy that looks like he grabbed his pants off the floor and smells like stinging diarrhea. Even more so with nurses and admin. I guess pharmaceutic-addicted, parasite infested, obese people need to work too... might as well be in the health industry.... besides, "it's ok, those issues only adversely effect the most elder and vulnerable with preexisting conditions"... "nothing to see here". Even at the surface; visiting someone at a hospital usually gives me the opportunity to sneak a peek into the hospital staffs refrigerator... I like doing that as a reminder that they can't give 2 deuces about my health when they don't give a single deuce about their own. BTW; Orange Crush and Dr. Pepper always seem to be the BigPharma's big winners. Gee... I don't know... you think I'm overly obsessing on the mindset of the administrators of my health? If so, then you probably don't want to know my opinion about those 2 snakes slithering up that pole. 🍎🪱💗🤢😷😵

2 weeks after quitting I was still dreaming about doing lines of meth but the withdrawals weren’t bad I was happy I was eating and sleeping again
I stopped doing drugs 5 yrs ago i still have dreams where im getting , finding ,doing drugs .
Only 2 weeks? I always have dreams but in the dream I’m always about to do it and then something or someone prevents me from doing it. It’s such a frustrating dream.

Leaving chaos in their wake, an urgent need.
Dopamine surges, like a tidal wave,
But soon the crash comes, like a grave.

So damn true
😂 no lies. I was at work the other day, coming down from an all nighter that I ceased a mere 4 hours before work..I was cleaning my behind off..and while I was thorough, I was actually surprised at how much time had lapsed, compared to my time management doing the same tasks while sober.
Correction.
I was an iv drug user of Meth for 12 years. And i shot up every day for atleast 6 months during those 12 years.
For me personally,
Injecting creates an immediate intense Rush of Euforia followed by strong sexual desire and the euforia continues on in a more managable level, slowly decreasing in intensity over 20-40 min- or so .
That will vary depending on the Chemistry of the particular Dope you use.
The experience of Shooting meth will be experienced differently by each person because our bodies are all different. Then factor in the Chemistry of the Dope itself, and how much you shoot will also determine your experience. If you shoot more than what the right amount is for your body, after the initial rush you will just go to sleep.
Snorting it, which i did the first year or two, produced a manageble Euforia and strong sexual feelings for me. It made me very alert, and ready to get moving, and get sh** done.
If you do too much it makes you rush around from one thing to another never really completing any one project. Or possibly get too focused in on details and losing yourself in it.
Oral injestion, (for me), was boring and a waste of good drugs. It took about 20 min to feel anything at all and even then I could not tell if it was working or if i’d not taken enough.
Ive taken it orally atleast 20-30 times hoping for a different experience but it was always the same.
And lastly, Smoking it causes a fuzzy, dreamy, relaxed feeling and depending on who your with, it can also have a managable to unmanagable Sexual feeling.
It also causes people to become Complacent towards things of importantance in life.
Which as a result causes peoples lives to crumble around them as they complacently watch from the side lines.
I hope you are clean now.

Hoi. Actually, i WAS doing GREAT.
But there have been some Family Members with Evil intent that continue to harrass me and start rumors about me to get other family members to Hate me.
I left all this behind and was doing so well. But i came back to care for a Family member who almost died.
Big Mistake...
It was too late by the time i realized i had just come back to my life full of Narcissists, a sociopath and a few Well Meaning Enablers.
It took a few months for me to finally get pulled into their tangled mess of toxic “Yuck”.
That was 3 years ago.
I am NOT doing well. 😑
(thanks for asking) 😕
Strange how because of my demented family members, I feel more at ease talking to a complete stranger than i do to the people ive been closest to my entire life. 😅
Over the last 3 years i got sucked deep into Meth again. But a lot has been revealed that needed to be during this time.
And there were some Healings that took place that might not have otherwise.
So these 3 years haven’t been a complete loss.
And a particular mission completed, other than to nurse my sick relative back to health. (...just to have him treat me horribly again🤦🏻♀️)
I have decided to leave once again for the final time.
I am going to quietly pack my belongings and stick them in storage, while slowly weaning myself off Meth
and then the next drama that happens... I will just get in my car and Drive away... *Big Sigh.
Yeah so although i am using again,
i do in deed have a plan to get away from the toxic and evil people once and for all!
Thanks again checking on me.
I so appreciate it. 😊
Ps.
A lot of non drug users think that all “User’s” are just like the Stereo types that we see plastered all over you tube or on the streets of San Fransisco or Philly and everywhere in between😳.
But that’s just NOT the case at all.
There are functioning attics.
For a lot of Meth Users it started with the desire getting “F...... UP” , ot because of the initial sensations there is a great number of peopld who try it just to experience that aspect of it .
And although that experience is real and true.
That aspect of it dies over time. And instead you find your self uding it just to wake up in the morning or to keep going in the afternoon.
And that is how it continues until you quit
For me and i’m sure there are others as well...Using Meth was about needing some energy after being continually Traumatized and
Depleted of any giddy up in my Get up...😵💫
It was also just as much about killing the pain and the memories and escaping this reality that I didn't feel I could escape from.
It helped me be a functioning human in the depths of psychological and emotional abuse. And the side effects were just a perk. Until they
Were no longer.
Thats all i Got and its a lot! 😂

Hey I heard if you drink your piss you get high again.
Can you talk about that too
Where can you watch the entire video that you use in the presentation?
Im with ya, how do u stop and jeep it that way? It takes everything eventually
Love this
Wow! My sister just died of organ failure due to about 30 years of meth use or abuse or addiction. I'm not sure what to call it. But, I cut all contact 10 years ago due to the abusive behavior. She was 58. Now, my brother shows up with the same issue. He is 61. This presentation is really enlightening. It explains what I'm dealing with or cutting off contact from dealing with. I'm in recovery from weed. Took about 6 weeks to feel right. I need a copy of the slides used in this presentation. It will take 2 years of my brother being clean before he normalizes,,,IF he doesn't use again. Wow! I'm going to need a stronger sponsor to handle this or a few sponsors.
Im with ya on that some of the weed going around now was having a completly different affect on me then what i was smoking 5 /10 yrs ago , finally had enough gave it up a mo ago feeling little better every day✌️
@@fishfire_2999 ya lots of people are growing with chemicals. That organic stuff is the good stuff, thats why i grow my own Lolo. Glad you could quit without losing your shxxt. Its not as bad as people make it out to be. They should try getting off of this meth or some heroin. Now that's hell.
✌️
I did meth one time and it was the withdrawal or the terrible down that I felt after coming down that convinced me to never do it again. Wish you could have discussed this horrible effect more. Thanks
Thats one of the contributing factors for sleeping four or five times a month , for a dedicated meth enthousiast. Among others,,just sayin
Naomi's skin over the withdrawal and side effects. There's a reason people don't quit taking stuff is because the world turns into a living hell for months until your brain recalibrates
Good for you. Smart decision.
I took some speed capsules before and I also experienced a terrible down. It was quite a trip and I was high for a long time. I never did it again.
Absolutely… I did meth for 3 days once and felt like a super depressed zombie for weeks… the most insane level of depression ever imaginable. Complete lack of dopamine, nothing in the world could give you the slightest joy, thought I would never be the same. I barely feel normal now and it’s been about 2-3 months… research suggests I’ll need another 2 months to reach normal dopamine levels. It was one of the worst things I’ve ever been through… not to mention the days after I quit I felt my breathing cycle slower than normal, heart beat going fast, brain feeling fried, liver feelings overrun… holy cow I’ll never leave marijuana again.
the true makeup of actual meth is no longer available,
and the fact that it's now a misdemeanor- as opposed to a felony- [across the board]
should be the first indication that it no longer exists, just the over played out, stigma on this one
I agree with you. It is played out to cover up our governments part of the opioid epidemic. They still say meth is the biggest problem. Um NO, fentanyl is. The fact they shift the blame tells me they're still not willing to take their part of the blame for millions of deaths. And if there is any meth overdoses it's because its cut with fentanyl. Just like the Oxycodone, the heroin and now the fentanyl- very few get help because a person has to be in jail to get a bed date for a state funded treatment center. Our jail is a revolving door for people smoking the "blues". In one day and out the next. Nobody is getting help and addicts are dying. Now that's a big deal-!!
Sucks for you that you can't get the real stuff no more
I’m curious. Can doctors use prescription amphetamines such as Vyvanse to help ease withdrawal symptoms? Seems like a better way than going cold turkey.
It would normally lead to abuse of that substitute. I believe doctors also like to avoid giving a medication to that person that had an addiction too. Personally, I think something like you said could help some way.
@@Devon202since speed is not physically addictive, its unnecessary to use another drug to come off of it.
People use meth as a coping mechanis, because most of us have childhood trauma of some kind. Its used daily to feel normal(after a while of use), and because of the large amount of dopamine release, your body can no longer be happy with a regular amount of it.
This stuff is simply too intense for us vulnerable beings. Thanks for Sharing. One question: what do you mean with fluency on the Diagramm at 35:00?
I was wondering the same thing
Yes and so is heroin, fentanyl and cocaine and LSD. All of them can put you in a mental hospital.
Tried meth once. It was nice, however the comedown was no worth it. Most things don’t make me withdraw after one use but meth did. I can see why so many people loose their life’s to it. I can also see why my cousin gave his life for it. It’s the sad truth
I think meth, heroin and cocaine are something you should never let into your body at all.
The body takes revenge and makes you pay for it.

What happens if you were tricked and smoked a gram one time? Any research on one time users?
I live in Sacramento County I'd like to see an update
Dopamine isn’t the only function though. The sigma1 receptor agonism gives rise to its potent psychotic ability.
Use to be for truckers to stay up on the road
I know you will do it. So therefore be positive and then you will be ok!
I did an experiment to prove that you could control it, but in the end I was hearing music and evil sounds coming from heaters and vents, followed by nausea and vomiting . not sure what the the draw to this poison is?
that's not the substance being poisonous it's your mind being weak because stopping or enabling those types of negative thoughts ineffective is possible and controllable. Just takes a strong, experienced, or a non dark thought/energy centered mind.
The effects that Meth has on people is unique to each individual.
Because of this, It’s going to affect
Each of us differently. As well as how well we took cqre of ourselves (or Not) while we were using.
I use to combat my bad choices with daily Vitamins, Green Smoothies, Healthy Food, Excersise, and i made sure i slept every single night.
5-6 years into using, I was as Breautiful asbefore i started using. After that it was still an extremely sloe process of aging or not looking as good as i did.
What did me in was when my Sister ruined my reputation and Far and wide.
Instead of just comkng to me and saying hey whats going on ?
I heard ...(...) She blasted the information to anyone who would listen and added all kinds of fabricqted stories. People shunned me. I was persecuted. My entire life was turned upside down and inside out. And it hasnt stopped. I stopped taking vitamins, stopped my dance classes, stooped taking care of myself completely because of what my sister did to me. Not bc i was using the drug.
I was using but i wasnt always hoing to use.
When she did what she did to me...that changed how i used.
It changed the reason i reaced for the pipe. It then beecame something i needed to drown out this world i exist in and cope with the stress.

Your sister sounds like a narcissist on a smear campaign. The only way to deal with them is to go no contact.

I think your numbers on meth use in America are really low! Also the no eating thing psssstttt... the people I know, that use regularly all eat normally and get 4 to 6 hours of sleep during a 24 hour period.
Then y do they lose so much weight but dont really look healthy
many many folks
@@thunderlol4 most people that do it you can't tell the ones that look like junkies are lacking in one or more of the following: Food , water , and SLEEP
They eat regularly because the ingredients into meth are different than they used to be so it doesn't make you lose your appetite, doesn't keep you awake for multiple hours. It is a crappy drug anymore! Nothing pure out there!
The whole point is if you don't have a prescription for it don't do it.
Meth is 4 times as addictive as cocaine..2% recovery rate..
The " experts" should elaborate on all important things like the: "down effect that's so horrible"?.... Discuss all important things!. 😢
absoltly rite
Nothing-How about direct stimulation of the pleasure centers of the brain?
I was smarter and more productive at work, clean and lazy now.
I do about 1 gram of meth a year is that abuse do I have a problem?
Good afternoon junkies

Notice the ease in which he speaks about experiments done on all types of animals!!!! What a cold and clueless person!!! Yet another example as to why this world is so screwed up. So much animal abuse and no empathy at all! I will always be a smoker and an addict for these reasons. Just to many dumb people in this world for me to handle. Why not experiment on all the dumb people,leave all the animals out of it.
I agree! Leave the animals alone. Don’t make the animals pay for human problems. There are more than enough human addicts who will probably volunteer if you give them free drugs
You must be stupid to fry your brain with that poison....
California? One out of 8? Get real, especially in TX and OK. But regardless, your numbers are waaay off. Thanks for the rest of the info.
Can anyone answer my question? So I was 8 months sober 😔 before relapsing again only lasted 3 days using and awake snapped out of it and went straight for the crash it was horrible 😢 I am now 5 days sober sadly but do you know if the 8 months that I had originally makes a difference?.
I would say the 8 months hays no difference. But making you want it more, now after the relapse.

I smoked meth every day for 7 years I've been cleaned for 2 months I cannot do anything Except sleep I don't have health insurance or a job Or transportation Seriously thinking about going back to smoking again
i have been smoking for a year. when i started, someone older than me told me just snort it don’t start smoking it or you won’t want to snort it anymore. he was right, when i just snorted it, it was just a weekend thing. started smoking it and been everyday for a year now. i have a natural dopamine deficit is why i started, just lil bit here and there. first couple times going out at night we’re great. mind was relaxed and i was focused. a month or 2 after that, i was on the “stay up late so just a little line in the morning so i can get through work day” cycle
I agree that's y I won't stop
This explains junkies 🧟🧟♀️💉💊 overdosing on the streets everyday. Thank you professor for your insight. Good job

Not sure why the druggie replied to me so aggressively and then deleted his reply when I wasn't talking specifically to him unless he's the person in this video which he doesn't look like it but then again meth is a hell of a drug
The speaker should leave the charts up while discussing them. Instead flashing them for a few seconds then the camera is immediately back on him. It's difficult to understand what he's explaining without looking at the charts. I don't need to see him talking.
I’ve used a handful of times in the last year. Spaced between six and four month breaks.

Great question,,,thats all,,,however I should note since youtubes inception, Ive not said that to anyone until now...tip of the cap to you good sir...A very Very good question indeed.,,your a go getterr Keith,,I can tell youll do well with this firm...
Meth is not as pleasant as they make it seem. It gets you high , I'm no expert dopamine seems to be more about craving (the things we find pleasant are more likely to spike our levels, maybe due to anticipation as well) nevertheless meth is not as pleasant as the experts say
I’m a current meth user, I’ve quit before but I don’t have a year of sobriety. I gained all of my weight back from before meth use and then some. Tbh I don’t want to quit even when faced with all of the health facts. Looking at me, you’d never think I was an addict. I hate people who have no personal experience with it, so judgmental. 🤦🏼♀️ The stigma around meth addiction is sickens me, that’s honestly most likely what stops me from having a desire to get clean. I’m not a tweaker, I sleep every night and I function at a normal level so for me stopping does not seem very desirable.
Yeah I'm the same way and have been dojng it and hiding that I'm a drug addict since I was teenager I'm 37 now and still use it daily along with oxys and I married with three kids and own 2 business and as far as I know my wife doesn't know either
And loke you I sleep I eat 3 or more meals a day still have all my teeth and I never had a cavity or even a toothache in my life
Apparently the people in this thread are doing a different type of meth then the one im framilliar with, sleeping evry night ? 3 meals a day?Functioning at a normal level ? Def not same s***.
how isit today hope you and all find your way
Shelby, how do you use it?
Ummm no eating it is a stronger high that last longer however they prefer to smoke it do to oral fixation habits and as a way of purity testing
No eating means a shittier high. Your body got no energy to make energy from. You’ll be alot higher if you weren’t starving though but I digress you can’t say shit when it comes with appetite suppressants like crystal
@@tonyoh8973 what are you trying to say?
Yea eating it last longer. Did it a few times. I hated it. I don't see the attraction.

This guy doesn't know what he is talking about at all throughout the whole beginning before he starts talking about the brain. Lol
These are absolute lies and fallacies regarding the minds of men; but I never would expect the man with a carnal understanding to understand what's spiritual. That mind, wherein you hold memories, is the real you. That which influences the mind to do good is good, and that which influences the mind to do evil is evil. And the mind (the real you) will be affected by the things done in the body, whether it is good or whether it's is evil. Your brain is in communication with your members only, as a nervous system; thoughts and imaginations have nothing at all to do with the brain other than it reaping consequences for ones actions done in the body. For instance; when one takes drugs, the mind may be affected because it is a consequence for what was done in the body, things that should not have been done. Such as the affects of "being high", that is a consequence for doing what should not be done in your body.

My experence the use off meth, my brain at times would have the same struggle as alzheimers deases , we're eventually you forget how to breath, once the high.weres off I mean, so I don't won't others to experence it,, once the addiction takes hold it is unpredictable were a normal sitting off useing in a moment crosses the line were it is to late, the deases is secretly there. The dopamine weres off suddenly Eventually you would forget to know how to breath, is the horrible fight you'd experience.wile awake and conscience , i personaly think you can be normal one day and experence alsymis deasese in one day . I kn9w why we do it, the high or addiction won't change anything, the high makes you feel like there is someone with you , a sexual feeling but at times the comedown leaves you satisfied as we all are lonely.we will have no will , even i couldn't scare myself off off the high that we feel we all die, but like you I am putting myself in a state off anxiety, we're my information won't help the dopamine fix, I should not put a person in a state off panic, but who knows the truth with why not many people die from meth, bexuase it's not the meth but the deasese. That kills
I feel sorry for those addicts forced to get hooked! But anyone who chooses to do this to themselves of own free will deserves their abnormal dysfunctional brains! I got a gaggle of nieghbor addicts real nasty ones I'm forced to deal with right now. Very unpleasant to say the least. Let's just stick em on an island somewhere and be done with them!
But did they choose the genetics or childhood trauma that made them more susceptible to look for the relief that drugs such as methamphetamine provide? Of course not.
I gave this presentation a 4 . On a scale from 1 to 10 . I cant believe you said the real question is why wouldnt anyone do meth? Isnt that your purpose for this youtube video. You may want to delete that on the powerpoint. That could influence the people who are listening to you.
Yeah... going to the doctors anymore usually leans me toward being more curious of whatever his or her diagnoses might be. I get they're doing the best that they can... but efficacy of feeling good about my health doesn't come from a guy that looks like he grabbed his pants off the floor and smells like stinging diarrhea.
Even more so with nurses and admin. I guess pharmaceutic-addicted, parasite infested, obese people need to work too... might as well be in the health industry.... besides, "it's ok, those issues only adversely effect the most elder and vulnerable with preexisting conditions"... "nothing to see here".
Even at the surface; visiting someone at a hospital usually gives me the opportunity to sneak a peek into the hospital staffs refrigerator... I like doing that as a reminder that they can't give 2 deuces about my health when they don't give a single deuce about their own.
BTW; Orange Crush and Dr. Pepper always seem to be the BigPharma's big winners.
Gee... I don't know... you think I'm overly obsessing on the mindset of the administrators of my health?
If so, then you probably don't want to know my opinion about those 2 snakes slithering up that pole.
