The phyciotrist told me that it takes two years for damage to the brain to stop. Thats two years to the last time you intake in any way of cystal ( I call her the EVIL girl friend ). Whether you shoot it , smoke , snort or even eat . Its the Devils tool to steal who we are. The whole " WHAT WERE WE TALKING ABOUT, OR WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO GET AT THE STORE " will only go away if you actually keep telling yourself " WHAT YOUR DOING ". Main brain damage I personally think comes from accidental or purposefully " OVER DOSE". That is my personal opinion. I know that I am actually lucky to even to be alive again. I lost a week and half in the summer of 2009. I recamend that if your not clean yet, that you take a few minutes and think , ponder, and figure out what is the reason , purpose and personal issu of why you are still stuck on that Evil girl. It not even a better reason to be clean and sober. think of the things that open back up to you, the opertoonities . I have no room to preach to any one . I can only tell you what it has done to me.
I was a great father , husband and owned three bussineses , the entire town new me as an honest person. Till the day I Met that evil entising girl named " CRYSTAL". She took every thing, Now my family is gone, I have maybe 20 dollars to my name at a time, ( whitch to me is a constant reminder to me of what the right choice is ) it keeps me in check to never go back. After two years of losing every thing twice, including y physicle life, I finally got the picture . I now can hold my grandson in my arms , and tell him grandpa loves you. Before getting clean that did not even matter. So thing of what you losing ? Not only your life, but every one that you know is also missing the person they know. You may never be the person you were. Make sure of that. I set my goals to high, I thought I could go back to who I was. Never expect that. Come to realize , you are a better person than you were. Now your journey through life will finally begine again. Do to the fact when that EVIL LITTLE BITCH has ahold of who you are , she doesn't let you out. So my only advice is to run as far away from the drug world as you can. Or go and donate time in a detoxe facility, it becomes a constant reminder of what hell you walked through alone, and help others climb back out of the addiction. I can promise only one thing !!!! LOVE, KINDNESS AND CHARITY to all, it does come back to help you grow. We are a stronger person because of our addiction, only if we survive!!!!
I'm glad you're back on the right path.
Maybe you should write a hub about this; who knows who might come across it and see your testimony about how you were able to survive and rebuild your life?! Meth is a major problem in so many people's lives. Your words have the power to give them some hope.
Cool.
HEY! Be nice to all the Crystal's out there!
And leave drugs alone! Their nasty!
It takes a lot of courage to get yourself clean from addiction. Too often it's easy to just fall back into it. But good for you for getting clean and being a survivor, and now, perhaps even a mentor to others who have struggled.
My daughter was addicted to alcohol and heroine. I don't know how she cleaned it all up, but she is completely off all of it, and sober now for about 4 years. She has a great job and continues to make advancements at work, and is married to a spectacular guy.
It's possible to beat addiction and make a good life. I agree with Brenda, since you're here at HP, start writing about overcoming it.
I agree with Brenda Durham - this content would make a great hub and a hub won't get lost in "threads" so people who would benefit from words such as this will be able to find it easily.
I'm glad you kicked Crystal M Beaaaatch out of your life, jeffchenvert. I hope you and your family will learn to trust each other again very soon and build some relationships back up.

I am pretty good with advice, but stumped on this one. I am hoping my fellow hubbers can help. I have a good friend that divorced her husband about 20 years ago. She did so because he drank too much, was immature, and wouldn't keep a steady job to help her with their two kids. She then met a man...
