Speak Up

When I was 16 years old I started using meth and heroin. I started by smoking it and by the time I was 17 years old I was shooting it every day. I was dating an older guy and he used as well. I did things I never thought I would do. I hurt my family and friends who were so good to me. when I was 21 I decided to get clean. I couldn't take the life I was living anymore. Meth and Heroin destroyed everything that I ever wanted. I checked in to rehab and started getting involved with 12 step recovery programs. I am now a proud member of narcotics anonymous and just celebrated 9 months clean! I am going to college. I have a 4.0 gpa. I live with my new boyfriend who is clean and amazing. Me and my family are repairing our relationship and life is a beautiful work in progress. If there is any advice I can give you it is don't try any of it, NOT EVEN ONCE! You have no control over becoming addicted to these substances once you try them... They will have control over you. Be better! SAY NO!
