Have you ever walked around the mall or more likely Walmart and seen some guy or some girl just totally trashed looking, all bug eyed, twitchy, and looking like they were just hit by a bus? Ya I have. I was that person before. One day I was high on meth and walking around Walmart. I was in the clothing department and I caught myself in the mirror. I was pale, my eyes were sunk in but my pupils were so huge and freaky looking. My skin was all dirty and oily, my hair was messy and greasy. All I could think of is, I am going to go home, take a shower then go to bed and never touch the stuff again. Of course as I walked around I saw, or at least I thought I saw everyone staring at me disgusted. Now when I walk around I try not to judge people that are obviously drugged out. I never know why they are doing it. Just like myself, they probably dont even know why.
I see a lot of drug addiction pages subscribing to my blogs. I go and read things on there and I see a lot of teens bragging about their drug use. Excited about getting high and bragging to other teens what they are going to do. Firat instinct is, it makes me sick.. second instinct is not to judge them like that. They may just be dumb kids like I was at 18 but then again, you never know why they are the way they are.
I love to speak about overcoming addiction. Coming from my personal experiences, I have hope, love, and encouragement and wish to end the cycle of addiction.

Never criticize a drug addict. You never know why they are the way they are.
