‹ Back to GalleryI am a recovering meth addict
I started using meth 8 yrs ago then put it down and walked away after about a year. 2 years later I picked up the habit again and never let it go. I went from 180 lbs to 130lbs in about 30 days. I was in BAD Shape. I got arrested on April 4, 2011 and spent the next 5 months in jail. I was released into the Drug Court Program, but not even that was enough to stop me. I continued to used and was placed in jail on November 4, 2011 on 13 day sanction, My drug court coordinator decided that I needed to go to treatment. I thank GOD that she made that decision for me. I completed a 6 month treatment program on May 18, 2012. I have almost 7 months clean now and I feel great. I attend regular meetings and I have an amazing sponsor. I don't know if I could have done this without God and a great bunch of people behind me. All I know is that there is help out there. If I can do it anyone can.
