"This is Your Face on Meth"

See video

A new computer program that morphs digital images of kids' faces to show them the consequences of meth abuse is the brainchild of west coast county sheriff Tom Alman. According to Alman, the Face2Face program is designed to deter even first-time use by showing kids what their faces would look like after six months, a year and three years of using methamphetamines.

Train wreck

How did it happen? If I have asked myself that question once, I have asked it a thousand times, and I still don't have the answer. How did a reasonably intelligent, hard working guy like myself get hooked on that nasty bitch we lovingly, at first, call Mz. Tina?

People in the walls

 I am a 25-year-old Australian. I have used meth since 19. Only ever shot it up, no normal pattern of snort, smoke then shoot, but from my experiences here in Melbourne, shooting up is the only way to use.

Quicksand

Four years ago, I stopped doing one of the dumbest things I ever did in my life: crystal meth. Four weeks ago, I did one of the dumbest things I ever did in my life: crystal meth. Why did I do it? Why did I stop? Why did I do it again? The answer is probably the same for all the questions. Whether it's a rationalisation, a reason, an excuse, or an explanation, the fact is that I did it and I can no longer say I've been sober for four years or that I'm a former addict.

The night that won't end

Let me start by saying that I have had experiences with nearly every kind of drug used recreationally in America these days. LSD, pot, hash, coke, crack, opium, heroin, speed (pills), shrooms, K, G and all the different pills you can name. I'm 30 yrs old and 1st smoked pot at 11. I did crack and coke by age 14. It was like whoopdie do. This is what's destroying America? It never seemed to get a hold on me. I saw what it did to others. I've seen some real horror stories unfold.

Love and addiction

I was adamantly opposed to drugs. I saw what coke did to my sister, and vowed never to bring that pain unto myself or family. Then I met him. At the age of 20, he was so damn cool, fun, and perfect. WTF was I ever thinking. He was a "recovering" (recovering my ass) coke addict (aka coke, crystal, g, e...) who I let into my life, and fell madly in love with. (shit, even know it sounds absolutely revolting and pathetic) after changing colleges, getting a DWI, and moving for him, I was able to enjoy the love for what it was...
