once is too much

After my cousin graduated from high school, a couple of his friends and himself went to Prague before that were going to high school. While they were touring the city, a stranger offered them some methamphetamine.They decided that they would just try it once and never again, but soon enough they were hooked. When he returned, he was very different. He had gashes in his face, rages against his family and friends, horrendous teeth and some bald spots on the head. Finally we decided that we needed to get him medical attention, but we knew that that wasn't enough. Thanks to the wonderful support of numerous people he has been sober for about the past three years and 11 months.
