- ‘I DON’T KNOW THAT I WOULD EVEN CALL IT METH ANYMORE’
Different chemically than it was a decade ago, the drug is creating a wave of severe mental illness and worsening America’s homelessness problem.

Most comments talk about the differences for those who lose their minds and those who don't, but it seems most miss the answer in the video. Even the video misses it, lol. It mentions it, then goes on to explore other ideas, such as potency, and contaminants, but the mind fck comes from the SLEEP DEPRIVATION. I feel like that's enough said, as it speaks for itself. Sleep deprivation is this underlying, ignored condition, that, really, is toxic to our health more than almost any drug, food, trauma... BECAUSE of the mind, it is what the mind needs to function smoothly, just like the body needs food to go, and rest, to rejuvenate, the mind needs to turn off, to reorder, process, and store information. REM, and dream state are crucial to a healthy mind.
I have had a theory for awhile which I've resisted sharing online, because I used to share everything openly, and I believe many of my ideas are claimed by researchers. There obviously is a philosophy and collateral decisions behind both sharing, and not, that I won't get into, but, I'll share my relevant theory here, in hopes it helps someone, maybe an entire nation, or planet. I say this, because the theory is about a national problem currently being faced by the people of Russia. Specifically that they have an outlier statistic on early death, and injury rates for men. They also have the longest work week, and cultural ethic of working as hard as they can take, sacrificial lamb kind of thing. They have all kinds of strange accidents in higher numbers, like stepping off subway platforms, driving off road, etc. which, the latter, is directly related to sleep, which indeed, is the theory, obvious by now. They don't sleep as much. I believe the stat I heard was just under 6 hour average. There is someone in the media lately talking about the criticalness of 8 hours, and backed with science of course about the detrimental effects. The catch phrase/message I picked up was, 'The human brain simply cannot function at full capacity on less than 8 hours, whether you really are Superman or not, so don't tell me you do just fine.'. So, ya, I think Russia needs to get more sleep, that is my theory about their problem. The last guy I watched talk about it, seemed to be the czar of the research on the problem, or should I say, Tsar, lol, and it wasn't on his radar. Seems obvious.
Same with addicts. Learn to do it with in a normal day, GET YOUR SLEEP. Wake up and eat and clean, and go breath some air and say hi to someone, then get high if you have to, set a bed time and stick to it, take your last hit hours before bedtime. If you're high all the time there is no difference,you're high all the time just manage it better. Sleeping is just as peaceful as high, and then you need less and spend less, and it becomes easier to imagine quitting, etc. etc. get your SLEEP!
Peace
*just as I was finishing, your video links came up at the end. 1 being about REM sleep :) This is how the universe both, tells me I am right about the theory, and also that I was right to share it. Well established communication between us, by now.... ;)
OUTSTANDING!!! Thank you very much for saying (in a more articulate way) the same thing I've been telling users for years. I've been on for thirty years myself and I noticed if you try to argue on PewTube, that DEA propaganda does not dictate the reality of all drug users day to day habits/lives, without having to say fuck it I'm not going to argue with know it all moral superiority types that can't be reasoned with. But you are absolutely correct on how this and probably 99% of information on this subject is lacking in the most basic subjects related to it. Have a great day, I'm glad I saw your post!
I totally agree, sleep is vital to good mental health. There was a study done years ago that showed sleep deprivation slows one's reflexes to the equivalent of having ,like, 3 drinks. It's very dangerous, especially when it goes on for days, weeks, and years. Scary stuff.
Just buried our 30 year old friend who fell asleep while working on a car
Also, everyone has a chemical makeup in the brain and some people can't handle certain chemicals with the makeup of chemicals in their brain. I've seen someone take one hit and flip out and climb. Tree thinking someone was after him. Crazy.
Celebrated 3 years clean this last December. I was an IV user and towards the end of my active addiction I would mix fentanyl and meth. It was a wild ride that I’m blessed to of come off of. Did a little prison time and met an amazing woman who gives me a reason to stay clean and learn a new way of living. I’ve regained my hobbies and family and friends. I was as bad as bad gets. I wouldn’t wish addiction on my worse enemy. My heart goes out to all those who are still suffering. There is a better way of life waiting on you when you’re ready.
Congratulations and mad respect I've been through it myself and understand how hard it can be, I hope you're proud of yourself you managed to beat a demon that most people can't, that's true strength mate 👍🇦🇺
Stay strong brother
Lol
Welcome back.
Proud of you kept it up
I wonder if the mental conditions occur in just certain individuals? Maybe it does something to their brain and not others...? I'm pondering this, because I have been using meth daily for twenty-five years and outside of staying up too many nights and doing a little too much at a time, I have not experienced this mental psychosis. I am able to work...BUT I believe it IS the main contributor to my health problems. I don't like the new meth (it doesn't even qualify to be called meth, if you ask me...) The ephedrine meth seemed like it didn't hurt my body as much...although I know that none of it is healthy. I never thought I would be doing this at the age of 60, but my fear of not being able to get out of bed and function...is what keeps me from seeking help to get off of it. I envy those who have been successful at breaking their chains and who are now free, of their own prison. But at the same time...I am elated for them...! If you've never done it....DON'T! Don't get me wrong...it does have it's qualities...but until it can be used as a medication (like I do it just once daily...) the negative overrides the positive usually. Please don't hate on me...it was hard enough to even share my thoughts. thank you....
Those who chose to judge haven't understood the real value of life. Ask them this simple question " Tell me how you do you do it? How can you ( them) be so perfect in an imperfect world??".
No one is without error. Mistakes, wrong choices, are just lessons in life. Lest us not be critical of others but be compassionate to thier choices they make in life. Love yourself! Live your life with vigor. Or my last comment to those 'perfect' souls...MYOFB!
Thanks for sharing, I also can relate to what you said and think it is on certain people's mind. N relate about not being able to function and being sick if u quit...it's all scary and definitely not fun.
I honestly think it's the ones that already have issues with mental health.
God Bless & STAY STRONG WITH METH ABSTINENCE!!!
@@noobsaibot9122 My son never had mental health problems and he has been in a schizophrenic psychosis for over a month. There is no talking him down because to him what he is experiencing is real. It is heartbreaking to witness and I pray protection over him and anyone dealing with this daily.
Today is day 1 of a new life for me .GOD WILL WALK WITH ME
Damn will hang tough. The withdrawal in detox is no joke. Turn on the other side it is worth it.
God bless you 🙏🏻 ❤️
Me too
It is possible I smoked for 20 years in this September will have been clean for 20
Just stay strong lov. It will have hard times but KEEP PUSHING. I have 10 months sober next week it's hard and I struggle and it's like I am finally learning how to be human. And sometimes I think I'm so far gone that I'll never come back and it discourages me but I just keep pushing and learn more about myself. Stay strong
Just like everything else, drugs have been watered down and made to be less enjoyable. I had my run with methamphetamine. The person who introduced it to me was a friend of my father's, and when I moved to Oklahoma City I fell in bad. Moved back up north, and I realized just how prevalent it is anywhere you go. This year will mark 5 years since I have touched the stuff. It's FAR from easy, and I hope anyone struggling with addiction finds the courage and willpower to stop! ❤️
It's called being a human... just got to overcome....
Sooo, sad, it really is everywhere,. I'm trying to find places where it has not been, & I'm still looking, it's a true epidemic, they even started making it in Antarctica!!!! A lab blew up there years ago, & I couldn't believe that!!!.... But never forget that science is unforgiving!!!!
I've heard every drug addict tell me drugs suck. Used to be good. There's truth to it maybe, but no drunk ever says, "when I was 16 I got drunk on Coors and now at 50 the Coors SUCKS" the Coors didnt change, YOU did. Regardless of meth potency ACTUALLY changing over time, your just a moron addict with a boner for the first time. Loser.
Thanks for sharing. What does a person do that it has affected them mentally phycosis happens sometimes to them making them think there is someone in the wall. It's hell on Earth!!!! It does some people this way. How can I help them it's a family member very close to me
Thats awesome I started 20yrs ago and it was better before they changed the chemical compound and yes it started messing with my mind !!! I've been clean going on 7yrs with a miss hap once or twice !!! When I started it was $80 a gram and I have family that still does it today and they are paying $350 an ounce 28grams !!! It is the worst drug i have ever experienced and there is a reason they call it The Devils Dandruff !!! Im still trying to find my happy after all these years !!! I still sometimes think maybe if I just had some in could be happy again and control it better but Really know I am lying to myself !!! I just stay away and Pray A Lot !! Also helps if have a WONDERFUL WIFE and a mini me every time I have a bad day !!! God Bless anyone dealing with this 👿 in Jesus Name Amen 🙌🙌🙌
It's the devil's dandruff, I myself have struggled and pray that God will continue to help. I have long ways to go ..it's not living,. Like the walking dead. God help us all,my prayers for all the folks that struggle and are affected..1 love
You can get through this. Just take it one step and one day at a time. I'm a little over a year clean and was a heavy iv meth user. There's no easy way of doing it. But God will pull you through it just keep your faith in Him. That's the only way I've managed to stop it and stay clean this far. I'll be praying for you.
Pray pray pray Jesus already freed you, you need to accept and absorb it , you’ve decided now deny your flesh, look into Kratom and don’t listen to all the smear about it
My philosophy homie is say f*** meth
I'M EMBARRASSED TO SAY I MYSELF HAVE TRIED IT TWO TIME'S BUT I GOT NO HIGH OUT OF IT THANK GOD. BUT I WILL NEVER TRY ANY DRUG AGAIN. I HAD A COCAINE HABIT OF 100 DOLLARS A DAY BUT I'VE BEEN CLEAN OF THAT FOR A YEAR I JUST QUIT COLD TURKEY. BUT I TRIED METH A MONTH AGO AT MY COUSINS HE OFFERED IT TO ME WE SMOKED THAT WHOLE DAY. I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING SINCE AND DON'T PLAN TO. GOD BLESS YOU STAY STRONG DON'T LET SOMETHING SO SMALL TAKE CONTROL OF YOU.🙏👍

My daughter is in prison for the 4th time due to meth. It breaks my heart. Thanks for shedding light on this scourge.
Mine too
shes what we call a "Panty Down" girl lol
Or this Man I suppose not sure if it’s the Mom or the Dad commenting here . Either way you still have no filter .
My prayers go out to your daughter.. I hope she can help her self one day.. 🙏💚🇬🇧🤙🤘
My son's on his way
Toughest battle in my life was to stop, about lost everything important to me to make me stop. 31 months clean now and still dream about it every now and then. That shit is the devil.
Totally agree have had my battles with these days tho it's not even real it's been so stepped on and shit on about makes me sick to think I would give up my money for crap that gonna make me wanna sleep hell I got NyQuil in the bathroom
However ... .if it was more like it use to b .... Couldn't make any promises just saying that filled a mass empty void in my life and now that empty void is back. Shts so fd up life is a joke just wanted to b happy u know
Use to think THC was my doc had to b on the surface everybody looks at u different if u even think about meth let alone do it.. have always fell back to weed wax whichever it's helped lighten the mood take the edge off.. something's mix well with chemistry something's not so much
Oop@@kaybutterson599
One year clean but the longer you are away from it the easier it is to stay away from it .
I could remember several years ago I suffered from severe depression and mental disorder. I was addicted to illicit pills, alcohol, and smoking until I was recommended for psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against anxiety and depression.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on Instagram?
Meth has been getting weaker and weaker. In 2009 you could hit the pipe 2 times and be up for 3 days... now days you could smoke a bowl and go to sleep the same night.
You should have done what was coming outta labs in Cali back in late 90s early 2000...p2p dope ....you could do a inch long line and stay up a week no problem ....and lot cleaner easier on the body as a whole ...not that any of it is good for the body but this new shit ....no one had sores shit like that ...that I know if back in those days just some skinny people lol...
Could make a ¼ last a week... Or ya can't forget good ole ANI the peanut butter balls..... OMG the way I've watched people transition in the last decade....
97⅘ of all people should say nope to the dope.... They would really be chewd out of their heads.....
Yeah there once was a time around 1996when the meth u used made u wanna fuck and (or) build a house and the outcome of both situations were amazing. Now in 2021 ur lucky if it even let u get a morning (gotta pee ) wood and maybe just think about building a pop cycle stick house. Lmfao
Rosebud, chicken scratch, propedope? Never heard of her.

Lol real talk
12 years sober ! God bless those who still struggle with this sickness! You can do it ! Get away from what you know ! People places and things have to change and delete those so called friends !
Sometimes even family members can hinder recovery being most times will have no idea what a person is going through .
Holy Shit. Congratulations. 12 years is seriously a crazy long fucking time to NOT drug or drink. You really do inspire. Right now i need more one on one therapy, groups, meetings & meditation. It does help, once you can actually sit still for 20 minutes. The ONE thing that is keeping me alive right now & I am NO LONGER ASHAMED TO SAY IT; is methadone. Liquid concentrate of 10mg per milliliter. After divorce, the death of my father & best friend, and my car getting repo'd, I was completely about to leave life. Medication Assisted Treatment is nothing to be ashamed of and I am living. Employed. Interested in things again. Addicted to my vegetable & herb gardens now....lookout spring, I an READY
TO ALL OF YOU. PLEASE, JUST KEEP TRYING . I KNOW IT SUCKS. I LOVE FEELING DIFFERENT THAN MYSELF. TO BECOME EUPHORIC IN TIMES OF DESPERATION IS THE ENTIRE SUBSTANCE ABUSE DISORDER TO ME. TO FEEL ANYTHING OTHER THAN HOW I FEEL.....I was always running scared. I need you all just as much as you need others who know, can relate & will Literally help you stay clean
@@sheldonhatch8255 who are u
God bless stay strong proud of you brother
fr. geographical escape doesnt work for many things..Except.. addiction altho it is Everywhere ..but yeah
Thank God I got clean and sober in 2010. Prayers to all that suffer still. 🙏❣️
❤😊 Awesome bro
It's been 13 years since I was banging meth. I'm glad I got away from it all. Proud to have a wife and kids now
Good shit mate. U can't make opiates from sugar. It must not work.. otherwise everyone would be doing it. Seriously. Have a cup of poppy tea. That'd work better. But, I used to use heroin and meth and acid. And I am straight now. Clean. But I had a fun. Playing shows. Fucking shit up. The prison straightened me up.
for all addicts here. you're beautiful you're not worthless, you DO mean something to someone! from one addict to another take care, be safe, love y'all. one day at a time
I guess. But I definitely mean less and less the more I carry on with self destruction. But I live like this because I like it. I like the lifestyle
@@ryanhom3006 it's not that you mean less and less. it's that it's getting harder and harder for your people to keep watching you do this to yourself so they probably just keep you at a distance. doesn't mean they care any less. just know that your actions have a ripple effect throughout your family/friends. it's up to you whether you put out positive or negative ripples.
and get the f%%k out of our neighborhoods move to william bells neighborhood because you we do not love your sorry dirty ass.
Don't forget that your words apply to you as well. I'm glad you made it!
I feel beautiful and worthy. Not sure why I use. Been on it almost 2 years. Functional addiction is a huge hidden epidemic for sure. I'm a typical white collar professional and nobody would ever know.
I started using meth late so all I have had is this crap. I've heard stories of what meth use to be and I can't say that I feel like I was cheated. Out of a high, sure but if it was " better" back then I doubt id be clean now. I started using in 2018 and quickly became an IV user. I'm a bit over a year clean now and halfway through hepatitis c treatment. I honestly can't think of a reason of why I started using or how I let it go on for 2 years but I'm glad that I was able to find my way out because apparently we have a very small recovery rate.
Sierra could really use your help I think people like us that have overcome addiction can be great avenue for the lost. It starts by residents of communities hindering supply and getting it off the streets. I know damn well I'm not going to let my children or Generations go through the same struggle.
Congratulations 👏🎉!
Congratulations babydoll... Keep moving forward... I just had 17 yrs... I Kno it's hard...you got dis!!!!
✌🏼💗😊❣️
I remember as a kid taking one hit and being awake for days cutting the grass with scissors. Every thought you had would litterty feel like an apifiny and the most amazing thing you have ever heard of. Meth now your lucky to be awake one night after cheifing. Personally I'm glad it has changed the way meth use to be was horrible. Users were like walking zombies.
Try and get some research chemicals. There is places out there that sell speed analogs that will kick your ass. Bath Salts are awesome too. Don't believe all the negative propaganda. It's molecule is nearly identical to speed. It's basically speed with a slight LSD ish hallucinatory quality. Because you order it from a chem lab research chems are usually 99% pure as well
Those in the medical field are utterly contemptuous of those on meth. They are void of any compassion. How will addicts seek help in this knowledge. I’ve lived it first hand. It destroyed me. What is wrong with everyone? God help us….
The media has made programming people as easy as 123 letter agencies .
Amen to that my brother @Michael Cassidy. If they are going to continue with forcing out of control epidemics, daily involvement in complete & unknown stranger's lives and for what??? They despise addicts. Even though 83% of Healthcare Workers are addicted to opiates or benzodiazepines, i almost completely hate & distrust those who judge. Leave that to God and the safer and safer prescriptions addicts can obtain. But, like you say, and GOOD FOR YOU, seriously, all in great moderation and do NOT put off your personal work and life just because some uneducated asshole of a nurse can just go right on ahead and call you a junkie because they stayed in bed at home rather than attend the pharmacological conference where they would have learned about proper meds, proper dosing & listen to us old farts when we say we want Carisoprodol, Fioricet with Codeine, Theophylline, Desoxyn or Adderall to keep me going each day, Oxymorphone or Diacetylmorphine at night along with the Celebrex for inflammation & okay, I'll do the surgery, my spine is fusing painfully anyway, and a great nutritional diet, mostly of the Mediterranean Variety. (Hey- you called me a junkie, now let me inform you that My Education in the medical & pharmological fields is PROFESSIONAL....because we junkies- we KNOW OUR SHIT
I'm sorry you have to deal with this I have noticed difference in treatment of addiction regarding doc (drug of choice). I used opiates and I've seen people treated different because their choice. I hope this changes
I agree 100%
All those people in those medical rehabilitation Fields need to watch the documentary
People are freaking out on each other due to a big lack of sleep
This country treats drug addicts like criminals, when it is actually a disease. In Portugal they decriminalized all drugs, drug addiction went down, recovery rates went up. But this country makes to much mo it from drugs and drug addicts. And that is sad.
When I was using around 99-05 I’ve seen it transform from “crank” to “glass”. The guy I got it from told me that the glass would put everything else I’ve done to shame I thought it was a used car salesman pitch. I hit the “glass” and no shit, I literally felt like a friggin battery. The sexual energy was off the charts and a small amount would burn forever. I think it was around 2004 I started hearing through the grapevine that the precursor chemicals were being banned, shortly after the quality dropped. I was literally crying while smoking, nothing was working anymore. Those were dismal times. Luckily, this was the impetus that lead me to sobriety. I dabbled here and there right up to 07 and nothing ever came close to the “glass” years…I don’t intend on ever trying to find out again. This was one hell of a monkey to get off my back.
Same here that crap is the devil's drug
Same here 03_04 Then stopped no idea what's out there now plan on keeping it that way.
Well I'm here to tell you you're sure as hell not missing anything.. it sucks......and good for you stay strong stay clean
Good Job My Friend! So Many Never Come Back! Take Care!
No more 6 day wank sessions??
Fantastic depiction of the reality of what these drugs are doing to
A whole generation of young nieve Americans. I have had to bury both friends and family as well as try to deal with my own addiction to these drugs. I'm 33 years old now and I've been lost everything in my life two times over. And to all you parents out there be paying attention to what your kids are up to their lives depend on your guidance and awareness
Most drug addicts, aren't as uneducated about drugs as people who have never been around it.
I met a guy in the Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation center he had overdosed and was in a coma for almost a year and then woke up and had to re learn EVERYTHING.
HE WAS DOING WELL WHEN I LEFT IN JULY 2021.HOPE HE IS GOOD STILL . THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!! ROSS
I use it for work like a cup of coffee . Don't use it everyday. When I do just one line or bump in the morning. If I do more during the day I'm asking for trouble. Body needs to rest and mind needs to sleep. There is no right way of doing meth. I wish I could be super human without it.
Seek out God and christian people. Get. into. a. Rehab!
God isn’t going to help anyone. I’m with you Carlos, you use it to function, obviously quite well. It’s called self-control. People can get (and are) addicted to literally anything. Everything in moderation.
My best friend said exactly the same thing. He's been gone 6 years now.
@@Wafflesweberbut then explain how the only lasting solution to this affliction finds its roots in religion/spirituality. From alcohol to fentanyl to meth, it has proven to be nearly the only solution to date. Clear back into the roots of the original AA movement, lack of spirituality and or spiritual death has proven to be the underlying affliction for ALL forms of addiction. From doctors and lawyers to the common street addict. From atheists to religious fanatics. It has proven thus far to be the only effective solution in any notable numbers. Maybe you should give it another try.
I'm very much the same way about it a functioning addiction to cure the pain an be able to function through the day ...im trying to ween myself off an within due time I will succeed its all mind over matter im not proud of it but im proud to say I'm doing well of becoming closer to achieving my goal of quitting ...
prayers an much respect for those still suffering 🙏
Me and my first wife went through an ugly divorce about 9 years ago and somewhere along the line she got on drugs, allowing me custody of our 2 kids. We hated one another for years after that and then the summer of 2020 she called me out of the blue to apologize for her part of what happened between us and I did as well. It made me happy because I never wanted to hate her anyways. She overdosed and died 2 weeks before Christmas that year and now I often feel like all the memories I made over the years with her was just me all alone by myself.
So sorry to hear that she overdosed, it seemed you both had closure near the end and it made some things feel better between yourselves, but don’t feel the memories you had with her were just you, focus on the good memories, those are the ones worth remembering. Best of luck to you.
Your story brings a tear to my eye. I too got a phone call from my ex out of the blue apologizing for the past. She was dead from an overdose later that year. I’m thankful I got to speak to her one last time, and the kids were there with me when she called. It was our last moment together as a family. It was completely random that she called, and it was unlike me to pick up but I’m happy I did. My heart goes out to you brother. We have an unfortunate similar life moment. God bless you and take care.
@@lonewolftrucker3955 She wasn't just a junkie. She was a good person that made mistakes and went down a path that she couldn't navigate out of and it ultimately cost her her life. I appreciate the sentiment portion of what you wrote though.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
@ArisLee Thank you for getting it. How true are memories when they can no longer be validated by the other person? Or maybe it's the brains way of coping with loss. I'm not sure but she left me feeling broken.
2014, you nailed it. I lived in the SF Tenderloin from 2011-2018 and noticed this same change on the streets. Right around 2014 we started to notice that the usual crack users were now using meth. For the longest time in California.. meth was always considered "the white man's drug" opposite to crack which was mostly being used on the streets by the black population. Before 2014 you just didn't see the black folks tweaking. This all changed in 2014. Crack was still around, but everyone on the streets seemed to be doing meth regardless of race. I asked a couple of users about it, and I got the same answer every time.. "More bang for the buck". The meth suddenly became insanely cheap, and it was everywhere... Along with the switch came the instances of psychosis. Seeing barely clothed individuals picking through the cracks of the sidewalks at hours of the day and night was a normal sight.. and it was like zombie invasion had hit the neighborhood. It was one of those things where you just said to yourself... "huh? This doesn't make sense." Now it does! Great to know the backstory and causation of what I witnessed first hand.
My Dad was hooked on this for about 7 yrs first it was crack then meth . The only thing that saved was he had a bad 4 wheeler crash lost a 1/2 his brain . But now he’s been clean for 9 yrs.
Rest in peace to my little brother David. Gone but not forgotten.
❤❤❤
I'm so sorry...this drug has claimed far too many lives we there it be health related overdose or suicide. I struggle myself. Had 9 months clean n relapsed. It's a daily battle that so many lose and my biggest fear is for my mom to bury me. I can't imagine your pain I wish I had something to say to ease your pain but all I can say is an addict is what we are not who we are I hope that makes sense
Human rights . I have the right to privacy and the choice to enhance or poison my own body. If I cause no problem to society , why can society regulate my Freedom to choose my pursuit of happiness
As I watch this, I can't help shake the notion that this is the most successful development in chemical weapons ever devised....
It's a wonder some of us are still alive.
Right
I am a heroin addict of 13 years and have also used meth and lived in the trenches of all this. Everything thing this guy is saying in this video is exact!
one day at a time brother! from one addict to another! you're beautiful man. take care, be safe, love ya
@@williambell3893 thank you for that, believe it or not you made my night. Much love and respect to you
@@cricketbighazard1469 it's my pleasure. I mean that. H has taken 2 of my friends and just about ruined my cousins life completely. as bad as I hate to say it. him going to prison this time saved his life. I don't want that for you or anyone else struggling. just know that you're never alone brother.
@Tomas Garcia actually, it’s not exact. I’ve been in the game since the early ‘90s back when we called it crank (yellow, hard as diamond) made out in Cali by the bikers that was top shelf quality product. Nothing since has compared. A key bump at 7 AM and you’d need sleeping aids that night but most likely you’re gonna lay there eyes wide open staring at the ceiling til the alarm goes off the next morning. Then everything shifted in the late ‘90s to anni-dope, the right chef-boy-r-dee and you’d stayed blowed away for weeks. The mid-late ‘00s the laws tightened up when the ICE so potent it’d make your muscles ache being so tensed up, I hated it and went on hiatus for about 12 years. Now to this shit on the video, hit or miss whether it’s worth a damn but even todays best batch compares in no way to the good old days. It stinks, quality reliability sucks, and the high ain’t worth a f*ck. As for availability, saturation but known to ebb and flow at times with a pretty much guaranteed dry patch in August unless ya know the right people. But Heroin, well wait a minute, I should say elephant tranquilizer is everywhere and pulling a helluva lot more cards than meth. There’s no comparison. The government cut all these folks off and threw them to the wolves with no help. The government’s solution has only caused more deaths and devastation. Come to think of it, probably has worked exactly as designed from their perspective. Anyways, I disagree with this guy’s assessment that todays “new shit” outranks the old. Folks don’t even tweak, geek or pilfer like they used to. However, I do agree it’s a struggle damn near impossible to focus or get anything done like ya could get accomplished on the “old” stuff. Have a good one… ✌️
dont care stay out of our neighborhoods were sick and fn tired of you meth heads ruining everything.
As a resident of Southern Indiana and a current user of meth I can %100 confirm that what this guy is saying is absolutely true. Well done sir.
I am also a user of suboxone daily and I'm the boyfriend of this account btw
I agree I to have seen it go from being good stuff to now being nothing over the years I've smoked so I do agree with the man's words he's saying in this documentary
Right it's got to be the best documentary I have seen by far on this subject.
This is by far the most scariest and most accurate video on this epidemic. I did meth from 1992 to 2005. Then 2010 till 2019. Thanks for putting a light on this subject because I feel the second rodeo was hard on my mental health.
Are you clean now?
You think meeth really is made with fentanyl now ?
Yes this is scary and I am so glad I do not see this in my area.
Locked up were ya 😂😂😂
KEEP up the good work..

I swear my small hometown was a government experiment. Meth hit it hard out of nowhere! I was 15 the first time I used. I was a varsity cheerleader who had blossomed. I thought I had gotten fat. I was offered meth and was told I could lose weight with it. I'm now 42 with 4 boys and 2 granddaughters. I still struggle with addiction off and on.. it truly is an epidemic. Recently I have taken myself back to a 12 step program. I pray I stay healthy this time.
Your right they do run experiments.. of all sorts.. my hometown is where top global spys get recruited and or get scouted for spy types and cyber security..
Are you from Iowa?
@RyanHon no small town Ks.
@@rigobertovillalobos5144 I believe it! I'm positive it was an experiment. We have an old military base in our back yard. It has its own zip code but no town, housing, or anything. The county jail is in that zip code and some corporate buildings along with old planes. It has an airfield that still operates flying military helicopters in and out along with fighter jets.
@6One5 Got Down right? Always back to the 13th step
I'm on meth right now watching this, and it's kind of a wake up call. I think I'm going to quit lol. I've been doing meth for too long, and slowly people have sort of kept me at a distance. Even other meth addicts lol.
Thank you, and God bless.

My wife's best friend's son died from this at 27 yrs old, due to this very thing. He had been shooting it. He went from a tall lanky kid, to having had swelled up so badly, even if this meth and fent dose hadn't killed him, he was on death's door. As much as it hurt us, it broke my heart (because I knew what a special kid he was, tormented, but super young, and super special. I pray for his surviving family. Terrible pain and loss
Sorry 4 your loss. I know a few youngsters who died from meth-related complications too. It's terrible in the Ozarks & Bible Belt... really anywhere West of like Ohio. Crack was seen as the inner city Black drug plague; meth and opioids are the rural white man's scourge. All hard drugs find inroads in impoverished communities where jobs & opportunities are scarce. There's no simple solution but legalizing adult use, regulating the drug supply for purity & providing practical harm reduction education would go a long way toward stopping the rampant overdose & addiction issue. Those who want treatment should have immediate access that doesn't cost thousands or hundreds of thousands. But until good-paying jobs & *hope* return to our communities, I fear this will be an ongoing trend.
ALL addiction is about pain. The pain caused by a trauma, which is subsequently buried, by escaping into addiction, numbness. You don't forget it, but everything is more tolerable when high. It also takes the focus off the shame of whatever the trauma was, and takes control over what one is shamed for. 'Good shame me for being a drug addict, that means you won't be judging me for the terrible event, I could not control, and am embarrassed about, and can't let anyone ever find out. They suffer alone, out of shame, when their entire understanding of life was derailed by a traumatic event, and just getting a tiny bit of help, early on, close to the event itself, from the right person.
We all know this. If someone is violated, and they report it, charge back at their violater, they get readjusted a great deal, right there. Where as if someone bottles it up, tells no one, they will slowly start descending into a shell of their potential.
No one is addicted to a drug, they are addicted to pain relief. Most of us have been there too, but not for psycho-spiritual pain, rather, for physical pain. Maybe an operation, or something, when recovering, it is more and more difficult as time passes, to not hit that nurse button, lol.
Pain tells it's host, it is approaching death, so start correcting. Th Matrix - the body can only percieve so much pain, until it taps out,, real pain or not.
Life, all life, evolution, it is not driven by survival, it is about managing comfort.
Peace
I'm on fire tonight! lol

So proud of you keep going I'm currently detoxing from methadone it's not easy but well worth it but only the 1st part of healing getting to the root why we used in the first place thats where the fun begins❤much love n light to you.
If you're using, always remember. Eat, sleep, hygiene. It can be used as a tool to improve your life, but it's obviously a very dangerous game. An eye for an eye. You will shave time off of your life no doubt.
"Used as a tool to improve your life" did you even complete grade school? I've never seen meth improve anyone's life... you just think you are.... until 5 years have passed and you realize you haven't actually gotten shit done in 5 years other than talk about what you are gonna do. Great ideas... organization.. working endlessly only to crash. Meth users are spinning in circles. You ain't got nothing accomplished.
And take care of your teeth and take vitamins
Stay hydrated
@@brandymixon4037 You are correct... you never seen meth improve anyones life. That is true... you,ve only seen the losers , the type who stay up all night for days at a time. Tweekers. Those who use it as a tool you wont see .!
Thank you for sharing this. A lot of information packed into it. More people need to hear this.
kind of but Imo as a current user... not really seeing this as gospel, besides its from the Atlantic, notorious for pushing self serving narratives and just plain fiction,didnt notice till afterwards and it made sense why this was kinda wishy washyinfo.....these comments tho...you see raw data from different perspectives in different areas and tells a story inofitself, but helps if in the know to sift through junk...imo
Fantastic video. This information needs to be known by more ppl. I've seen the societal deterioration in Louisville, ive been around hardcore drug users since the 90s, i smoked weed, occasional coke back then, but the meth addicts i new back then weren't as insane acting as nowadays meth users. Im soo glad i never got addicted to meth. I tried it in the early 00s, but i hate not sleeping, so i never tried it again, then got tired of coke, so I stopped touching uppers. Opioids is a different story, But im clean now. Crazy World, lost alot of friends and family, STAY OFF THE DRUGS. Peace and love to all.
Corrupt and sad.greed substitute the truth and honest nobility in the trade off of services and exchange in the dealing. The ❤️ and honest nobility for the mind body and soul one searches thru the hurls of search to elevate and escape the present normalized trend in life has no baring concern in humanity or the present fellowship in today's modernize history. So consequently just say no to these tryants who mast the investment of greed and dishonesty upon the masses . Conduct and responsibilities to the sharks who lay at the bottom to engulf the prey whole without chewing is pitifully a sad reminder of where our world is leading in a spiral spin into the abyss of no return maybe we need something to fall from the sky and exit thru the black hole .
This is a very informative article. I lived with & around bikers in 70s- 80s who all did p2p meth. Even had themselves a Walter White type chemist but never saw this kind of reaction to it. Something is changed, something is different. Scary as hell too.
This is so well done and I really hope that you continue with your documentary projects. You are so spot on with information and this is the first project that I’ve heard cover the chemistry aspect rather than just the typical focus of violence and money.
meh.... not seeing spot on at all...yeah it ok but misses on some points, wrong on others...I give it a cool story bro but spot on...cant, its not...im leaving it at that.
This drug has killed my living wife from the inside out. Sczophrania, delusions. So sad. Never seen anything like it. A beautiful women, just mentally empty.
Here is just a sampling of what i have dealt with: Im accused of and told all the time: cheater, thief, old man, selfish, buried in the bac yard, having people live in the basement or attic, had next door neighbor college girls in the house to screw them, thought they were stealing her cloths, or wearing them, thought they were harassing us at night, thought they were climbing the outside walls to get in, everytime i washed the dishes she thought i was 'signaling' or talking to them, hears voices from any running appliance, thought she was hypnotized, thinks drones are following her or watching her, thinks the new neighbor lady, 75 yrs old, is screwing me, let someone rape her, film her using a toilet or having sex and selling the videos, molesting our son, molesting her sons, trying to kill her, fucking my exwife. Threatened to kill me, wished I was dead, claimed i killed someone,
Everyday she manages to beat me down. And a couple times literlly did. I was pretty bloodied up. She called the popo and they wanted to arrest her. Shes managed to delete a ton of my pictures from my phone. Sent f-ed up messages to people on my phone.
I payed about $7000 for a 10 day trip to Cancun, Cazumel, and Chitzanitza Mexico. It should have been fantastic. I've been there before. She went to a local hotel and refused to go. 3 nights in a row i bought new airline tickets hoping....didnt happen. I was so amped. Lost about $6000. She thought i was someone else and thought i was going to kill her.
This shit destroys your natural seretonin. Any laps turns into an unmanageable human. It has destroyed our relationship beyond my imagination. In my 60's, I've take full care of our 4 year old son. I have grandchildren twice his age. I wont give up on her but my focus will be on our son. This story is right on the mark.
Man this is so close to how my husband is it’s crazy he isn’t going out or staying out he is just accusing me if anything and everything thinking im out to get him . Im so so sorry you are dealing with this my husband has been sober for 7 days now and he is coming back more daily so there is hope
I had a wife like that. She started out with a good heart and turned into something/someone unrecognizable. She wound up setting me up with a meth lab and I still to this day don't know what all was in the cooler that was taken from our house. I plead guilty to it because I was not going to let her get charged for it. At the time I had just gotten home and didn't even go in before I left to go to the hospital to see her because she called an ambulance thinking she was going to die and I was arrested several blocks away from the house for driving on revoked. That's when they said that they were doing a search warrant for the house. I didn't know what all was in the house other than stuff for smoking pot and some of the pharmaceutical bottles she had since before we had got together. I took the case and was sentenced to 9 years in the department of corrections. Wound up doing 7 years on my bit because I was refusing to go to see the parole board. That's because I was waiting for the divorce to go through. I'd do the time again to have that hell come to an end. She is doing a lot better now but she always looks like she is afraid that something is going to jump out at her. I'll always miss the woman that she was before.
maybe the two of y'all should hook up
@@staceyterry1972 Thanks for the reply. It isn't easy, but then again no one ever said life is. Be strong, never stop loving the man, always have compassion, and allow humility to guide you. You can't give up. If you dont try who will? Only he and you can make it better. There isn't any magic Doctor or hospital or pill that just makes it go away. Your strength and love will be tested constantly. Don't let it destroy you. I've discovered places in my life not by choice. I've always tried to learn from my own failures. 12 years ago I had a brain Hemmorage, died, brought back, 8 years ago I lost my 27 yr old daughter to a rare cancer, now this scourge. Humility has become my guide. If praying helps then ask for it. Try and let me know how its going for him. Thanks.
@@averagetobest8180 Your thoughts are almost comic. If it weren't for the truth of her and my experiences i would have told you myofb but i can't let anger enter my world. When you don't understand or know its best to just listen. Thanks
people dont take drugs for pleasure its to numb the mental pain of what society has inflicted on them or family, abuse as a child, divorced parents, and no help to deal with that trauma if you cant pay for it or know where to start
That's a very interesting opinion. Certainly not a fact. But an interesting theory... 😂
Society doesn't want to end pain inflicted upon people. That would mean less productivity at work. People outside work like to inflict mental pain on others to vent out or feel powerful.
In over 25 yrs of addiction my experience and of others I interacted with, I'd say abuse is attributed to attempting to dumb down the pain of trauma 99% of the time. People, myself included early on, who are getting enjoyment aren't abusing, they are using sporadically or weekend warriors.
It's almost as if government involvement has made the situation much worse
Like the rest of the world and like this video tells my town also fell victim to the Opiate craze. 1st Oxy, then Heroin. Meth was also everywhere. It wasn't the normal for so much meth to be on my streets. I got lucky and finally moved to another city for a few years wich no doubt saved my life. After that one after another people I know whom didn't have mental heath issues before were literally 100% loosing their minds. I've had several conversations with friends that stayed behind trying to figure out what the ones who went mental were consuming. Everyone was so hooked on pills and heroin/opiates I figured they were taking multiple random pills or synthetic substances from smoke shops that eventually broke theirs minds. Now I see the real problem. Drugs are very bad and always have been. Now a days there's no words to describe what these drugs have turned into. If the drugs don't take your life, they'll settle for your soul and completely destroy what's left of your consciousness. For anybody out there fighting for their lives its not going to be easy, it all comes down to how bad you truly want to live.
When I was at the point (pun totally not intended) of my heaviest heroin/meth use what I noticed with two of my friends who consumed about the same daily quantities I did was it was absolutely no question the addition of benzos to the mix, usually Xanax, that almost instantly made my one friend the most paranoid insufferable manic belligerent hostile dude I’d ever been around and my other friend start hallucinating that there were “alien drones outside the window” and other unintelligible things plus heavy paranoia... I always considered myself kinda lucky after witnessing those two’s behavior that at least I had always totally hated the way benzos made me feel -like an absolute zombie or I’m sure I woulda wigged out too.. Just another example that every single one of us is totally unique, has our own body chemistry, metabolism, etc and processes/feels/reacts to what we put in our bodies in our own way... Makes me wonder what the percentage of those who "lose their shit” on meth are also ingesting other things at the same time...
Well said. It's truly the worst demon anyone can live with. I've seen damn near every drug used, abused. Never the damage this stuff is doing to lives. Real life zombies. F-ed up.
@Robin Hamilton I commented before. Some States offer what what is called a Pink slip. Call your local police department. It only last 3 full days but it might be a good start. Other than that only she can want help. The minute she does or wants to die its then waist no time and get her to a hospital. I've tried them all for my wife. You have to have hope. Keep trying. Im sorry that you're dealing with so much. I wish i could help you more.
@Robert Johnson like bath salt I think its called, I think another was the "Jeffery". Idk but There was a few I heard would get the user pretty wasted. I never messed with those synthetics but from what I've heard about the effects they sound very strong and very dangerous.
@Robin Hamilton I think about situations like the one your in and how a whole family can be completely torn apart from one person's drug addiction. I once had someone ask me how I was able to stop using. His son was struggling with drugs and it was taking its toll on his family. All I could tell him was that his son has to want to stop using. And even after that it's still an everyday battle. I hope everything works out for you and your family. Remember your not the only ones in this situation. And everyday addicts decide they've had enough and start taking steps towards their recovery. Good luck to you. There's some good programs now a days. Most take access or are free if the person is actively using or last use withing a year. Although none are a gareanteed cure they do help.
There is a policy of not wanting to label homeless as drug addicts! Are you kidding me. That's the most B.S. statement I have ever herd! That is all public officials and the media try to project homeless people as! The problem in California is not that meth causes homelessness. It's a response to being homeless and dealing with the psychological impact of that! The reason for homelessness in California has to do with the fact that you can work 40 hours a week and not even make enough to cover your rent! The wealthy land owners in the state are the reason their are so many homeless! Eviction rates are insane there! The reason being that it's the only time they can raise your rent! So they will evict people for any reason possible. Then they can raise the rent for the new Tennant's.After they have been their a year then they start looking for a reason to evict them! A recent studied said to rent a one bedroom apt in San Diego you needed to make approx 30 dollars an hour to live comfortably and pay your bills. But up until the recent min wage hike. Most people were getting paid between 10 to 12 dollars an hour. By the same people that they were renting from.That is the cause of homelessness in California! But the powers that be don't want the general population to understand the truth about why people are homeless.So they do nothing but push the idea that all people that are homeless are that way because of meth or mental health issues. It's unfortunate that this individual did a good job with his research about the meth operations. But instead of looking into the real causes of homelessness. He just parrioted the same B.S. lie that the policy makers have been feeding the public for years. So no money has to be spent on solving the homeless problem they created. Instead they can keep funneling their money into law enforcement to attack and harass the homeless population.Because if people really understood the real reason for homelessness! It would cut into their pocketbooks. Then the party would be over and they would be forced to pay to fix the problem they created. In their endless attempt to create more personal wealth at the expense of their fellow man.Meth is not the cause of homelessness. It,s a product of being homeless and dealing with the pain of it.I am in no way condoning the use of this drug. It takes a terrible tole and makes a horrible impact on people. My issues is with the way it is being scapegoated as the reason we have a homeless problem. To cover the real reason that the homelessness rate is increasing. Low wages lack of affordable housing. City council's limiting building permits to keep the demand for real estate artificially inflated to protect people's investments.This problem has been building up since the 80,s. It's just finally coming to a head and more noticeable to the general population. So the powers that be have created their new Reefer Madness paranoia to cover the real reasons people are becoming homeless in record numbers!
Meth users work hard
@@joeyankosky9436 I would like to know where you get your information. Because I know for a fact that is not the case. Meth don't put people on the street. Meth is on the street for people who were put there.

As someone who has lived with meth since 1985, I can tell you that this is the most accurate, informative, and complete accounting of the meth epidemic and of the consequences of meth use that I have ever heard. Bravo to the person that created it. To everyone dealing with a meth addiction, take heed! This new recipe is relentless.
One part that was overlooked is the uncurable parasitic infestations that the new meth breeds on its users. The medical community in Los Angeles has found a convenient blanket diagnosis of delusional parasitosis to hide behind, rather than address the issue. People are being eaten alive by some unknown, invisible parasite. The symptoms are inflamed by meth use and the filthy conditions on the street. Thats why people are hiding. There is a modern day leprosy loose and the homeless have to hide in shame from the horrible condition.
If you live in Los Angeles and are suffering please find a way to comment. I have a treatment and alot of information for you.

They always say meth kills. But they are so wrong. You can’t even shot one and kill him. When it takes eight cops, five cans of p. Spray and 3 stun guns. Just to subdue one crazy meth addict and half the time he still gets away. An addict can go for a weeks doesn’t eat, doesn’t sleep. That would kill an normal man. But not a meth addict they just keep going here, going there, has six or seven projects started, non completed.

Huge upvote. I just need to point out that d-methamphetamine, regardless of how it is produced, is still d-methamphetamine. Except that the molecules are mirror images of each other, they are the same chemical. Only the methods of synthesizing it can differ. If P2P meth is causing problems that meth derived from ephedrine does not, then the latter must contain things other than meth. Find out what those contaminants are and how to avoid contaminating the product with them, and we will return to a pre-P2P era. This should not be impossible. Analytical chemists can use their particular instruments on mixtures to identify their components. I find it hard to believe that this has not yet been done. There's no great mystery here. Why isn't it reported?
you are saying something clear, at least from my side and that this video has flaws,im not seeing anyone I know having these issues, its gotta be mixed... maybe with saboxen. just thought about that right now. guy I worked with was weekly saboxyn user for obvious reasons, court ordered yada yada, well I didn't know him very long but seemed solid, as soon as we started carpooling he wanted to get high... dude was whack within a week. only person I've ever seen do that and a common thing used in camps.... its the use with saboxin!!!

What the kids are doing is becoming amateur chemists. They'll use reagents to test their drugs and even use acetone and 99% isopropyl alcohol to clean the product. Not the worst harm reduction model I guess. Remember too that methamphetamine is legal with a prescription for treatment resistant ADHD and obesity, pure pharma meth named Desoxyn. One of the biggest problems with illegal drugs like people are saying, is the impurities and adulterants. There was this same problem during prohibition, bathtub gin and shitty moonshine that was killing people. The government actually poisoned and murdered 10,000 people by adding dangerous adulterants into alcohol. I've done pretty pure meth and shitty meth. Purer meth felt clean and almost like MDMA with a more natural euphoria. Shake and bake crank still has a high but is terrible for your teeth and mental health. Had many an experience with the shadow people. Ending drug prohibition is the first place to start. Legalization would at least starve the cartels. People though legalizing cannabis would be a disaster and in reality it could not have gone more smoothly. Just food for thought.
I actually need and am prescribed Desoxyn
I'm 8 and a half months clean from meth. It gave me heart failure and I almost died. Now I have a pacemaker in my chest because of it. I started using in 2006. Wish I could take it all back. I ended up homeless living in the woods. Now I got my family back but it almost killed me.
I used too be addicted too diet pills by the box because it had speed in it. This was before they started regulating it years ago. I would be up for days. Hardly any sleep at all, literally felt endless energy and happy. I have history of depression and anxiety so I see what addicted me too it . I also suffered from a severe eating disorder that caused me too be hospitalized because my weight dipped too 75 pounds at 5’8 inches and dehydration was severe and life threatening and extremely irregular heartbeat and dangerous low blood pressure. They said speed use and eating disorder caused these problems. I also had a drinking problem. So it was rough getting clean. I did not have insurance so had people in as and na helped me thur withdrawal. Thank god for there help

Isopropylbenzylamine more-or-less replaced actual meth . It is a legal isomer of meth and will test positive with basic street tests. It is sometimes called 'sleepy speed' because people use it all day and it makes them tired (!) but then when they stop for the night they cannot sleep. I didn't watch the whole vid so maybe it was mentioned. It is what makes the speed into really big crystals that are crumbly and soft.

I am going through this myself. Ive been smoking meth since 2008, now im shooting meth. Im always paranoid, scared, and withdrawn. I hear voices, Ive been in full psychosis a few times. Lately ive been wanting to just die, feeling like i have no reason to live anymore. Its all about meth, im homeless and skeep on the sidewalk now, but still i wont turn down some meth. If i get money I go look for meth.
A friend I used to hang out with lost everything from this stuff. He was a good guy and would do anything for you. He just had a serious problem with meth. His brain finally broke he shot his dog then himself. I talked to him a bunch of times about getting off of it he just couldn't do it he'd had too many bad things happen in his life to cope without the drugs.
I just don't understand this drug ? This drug makes you do bad stuff too! How do you deal with that ? All the shame and instantly that goes with it !!!
It's not illegal to french kiss a rattlesnake because doing that is punishment enough if this is so bad doing it is punishment enough why is it illegal why bring the police and public officials into it
What politicians pass are not laws it's called acts or statutes. With that saying when police arrest you for drugs they need consent. What many people don't know is that they inadvertently gave consent. How do you consent? America was founded on Common Law but the courts are really using the law of the seas Maritime Law on us in court. On water you don't have any rights you have liberties and the captain is the King. Your birth certificate made you a corporation that's why your name is written in all capitol letters. We are really flesh and blood men and women subject to Common Law. Admiralty Courts don't have jurisdiction over flesh and blood men and women. What gives Admiralty Courts jurisdiction is when we agree to be that corporate fiction all caps name on your birth certificate and driver's license. I am not EARL SCIAMBRA JR. I am Earl from the Sciambra family. If you get arrested do not agree to be the all caps name. Do not sign any papers. Do not plead guilty or not guilty simply say you don't consent. Don't hire an attorney. And always answer the judge because silence is consent. If you do this for a non common law offense like drugs they will let you out of jail between 24 hrs to 3 days by law. By the way next time you are in a courtroom look at the American flag. The flag has a gold fringe around it meaning it is a Admiralty or Maritime Court. The Maritime courts are really controlled by the Vatican which is also called the holy see or sea. Judges are not really judges they are adMINISTERS aka administrators and are ecclesiastical that's why they wear robes like priests and are able to marry people. Judges are in the cult of Saturn or Satan and don't care about justice they are just doing business. The court is also called the bench which means bank. The judge is the banker doing business. If you are an American Citizen with a birth certificate you are a stockholder in the USA INC. When you are given a birth certificate the Vatican makes out a bond in your name that is a mutual fund traded on wall Street. All of your royalties go into that account. When a court fines you they get the money from you and they double dip into your secret trust fund that you don't know you have. When you buy a house and get a load from the bank where does the money you borrow come from? Not the bank, it comes from your own trust fund. Google it. Plus when America went off of the gold standard there isn't any real money anymore it fiat federal reserve notes. When they did that they had to have a remedy since there is no real money. Everything is supposed to be paid for us just like in a communist nation. But the system lied to us and this is why they control everything including the media so we don't find these truths out. You can actually buy a house quit paying the notes and not get repossessed if you know how to do the paperwork. Sorry for the ramble...
Nice to see a fellow prepper sharing truth. I saw in your video list Edgemoor hospital Santee. About 14 years ago I was one of the tweekers running around east county San Diego mostly El Cajon and Santee today I'm a pastor and foster parent. When I look back and tract my use and relapses over the years they coincide with ephedrine based meth being on the street. I quit everytime p2p came around. Being from San Diego it was plentiful. When you knew the right people you got the glass. Thanks to God I'm clean today along with almost everyone I ran with.
Good for you man! That is awesome! Love hearing these stories of people getting their lives back.
this is bull shit...quit simping

Remember Cindy from Ramona or Bike Mike from Miramesa? We Do Recover!!!
It has gotten weaker....and I swear it's almost like most people do it and it's so weak they just make theirselves think they are high
I was hooked for 5 years, thinking this demon was my friend. I thought it made me better, more productive, more creative, funnier, smarter, etc. It does the opposite of anything good you believe you're getting. It's difficult to get help, especially in a world that makes you feel like a villain for needing it, but if it has its claws in you, find good people that will help. They're out there, you just have to put the pipe down and find them. Be happy. You can do it. I know you're strong, may your journey be long.
Thanks to all of you who shared this video, we are getting the message out that this stuff is deadly.
It no worse then the old school stuff because it is the old stuff
So what method is used to make adderall? I know it is amphetamine, not methamphetamine, but it is racimic like the P2P meth as well.
I did much much ephedrine Meth in the 1990's , quit, and did not touch it for 20years. I stupidly started fucking with it recently like 4 years ago. It is not nearly the same. And that is probably really good for society. This stuff can be slept on, eaten on, and doesn't cause much psychosis. However what if does do, to me, is if I run out, rare because a quarter of a pound lasts for several months, and costs $500. Probably less for people in the loop. But it has happened a time or two. When it does, I get violent electric shocks im my brain. ZAPP!ZAPP! Who keeps flicking the light switch? Stop. Were outside man. Smoke some of this. Oh thank you. Then aLL is normal again
@NicknackPaddywhack which shit? The methamphetamine, or the adderall? Sorry about your son.
@NicknackPaddywhack How long has he been off it? I’ve worked with people with addictions and that’s to be expected for an average of 3 years…sometimes 5, but he may still improve if he remains abstinent or corrects any slip quickly. The brain burns out all its dopamine. It has negative effects on our motivational and pleasure centers, and many people feel fatigued and have trouble enjoying things. They behave just as you describe him. Has he tried aftercare? Also, maybe a psychiatrist could help. He could have developed a mood disorder or have something underlying his drug issues, like ADHD. They do have ways to treat amotivational syndrome without amphetamines. It’s important to let the doctor know about his addiction history, if he goes. Well wishes to your son.
Can you tell me the ingredients and how to make it, I really want to know. Isn't it legal for science, because I don't circulate it. please tell me, for anyone of you in the comments column who knows the ingredients and how to mix it,🙏🙏
I call it the TRAIN 🚂 WRECK BECAUSE IT WILL AND DOES, wreck ur whole life..
Now if that ain't the complete & honestly solid comment or solution ..do you HAVE a solution?? Take your time. And time is fleeting.

As far as heroin, meth and cocaine go. You really are better off saying no from the very beginning. I had a 6 month stint with coke in my early 20's. Quitting was hell but i just powered my way through the pain to regain what I had lost. My bank acct was drained, weight was too low and it was taking more and more of the drug just to feel normal. This was the point when i first thought about stealing for more coke. I knew that things wouldn't get better until quitting for good in 2006. Ive never touched a hard drug since. I consider myself lucky.
Agreed. I tell people that haven't used anything yet that none of it is worth it. If you can live without substances your better off. If you LOVE a substance knowing that can't take it is anymore or your commiting suicide is hell. Not worth it.
When they ask you if you have had enough,
Just say no!
Turns on video: speakers 📢📳💥
I know who's being protected when the media ignores "the elephant in the room."
And it's not the addicts.
Yup its weird how they don't get prosecuted like the users
That's for sure....
fluck meth addicts its not them that need protection, it is the rest of us who's lives they are destroying that need protected. Typical addict its all about you and your shit and fluck everyone elses.
@@eugenewalczak4791 What goes around....
@@RaggedyAndi1 You're hot AF!!! Love the attitude too. Don't ever change. You're adorable.
Thanks for the insightful explanation of what our country and these addicted individuals are up against. I feel exceedingly lucky none of these hard core drugs were available to me.
My son's mom and my very beautiful ex died on April, 14, 2022 from an accidental overdose she hadn't used in over two yrs I don't have anyone I can really talk to about the hurt I feel for my son who's only 7. And just the hurt, loneliness and guilt I feel myself. I love you and wish I had done more maybe this wouldn't be the outcome.
Im sorry
How many times was for meth lab being made out of the back of a car trunk I just want to let you know it was pretty bad down here in Central Florida
I relapsed this summer and was pleasantly (in my sick addicted state) surprised to see it being given away for free in my hometown in sw michigan. i think this only supports the fact that irrespective of supply, the war on drugs needs to be addressed via mental health resources in our communities but for those that want it. recovery is for those that want it not those that need it and making that available at the moment the choice is made to seek help is so key.
They never shoulda made cough pills illegal, now there is new meth that is way wirse
It’s inexorably linked to self actualization, more specifically via a sense of purpose with a job. The majority of the communities impacted by drugs are Detroit bc car industry is gone, Baltimore (industry is gone), Ohio (same), the list goes on and on.
@@ccinSFfruitloop Detroit checking in. Addicted to heroin fentynl and cocaine almost 26 of my 40 years. Your statement is true Christina. Too true.
Everyone doing it for the first time know damn well beforehand that it has a horrible reputation. Yet they choose to cross that line and consequences be damned. Please, if you ain't done it yet, keep your meth virginity for a lifetime
What school did you go too? Just curious?
@Kansas Kitty... thanks for sharing, for a moment I thought you were me. I too am almost 60 and have been using meth for way too long to admit. Started with the brown stuff in the 80"s that you could snort, a tiny line and be up for days. I could clean my entire house literally top to bottom in no time. I painted art back then and did my best work then. It went away and was no problem to quit. Only years later in the early 2000's did we get turned onto what most know as Ice. When it was clean man it was the best but only because of Sudafed. I won't say it wasnt bad for me or my health but it was better because you didn't have to do as much and could function fine, go to work, get alot done etc...Then when our wonderful "government" said no more Sudafed and all we could get was shake & bakedid we stop, It was just too nasty. More recently went to a party one night where it was what everyone had and we did some and damn if we didn't start up again. I was shocked at how much more addictive it was. Guessing it was the P2P kind. Only recently did it change again, pretty sure it due to fentynal and like you I do it just once maybe twice a day just to keep the pain away also cause fentynal scares me. Looking back I can say without a doubt only after smoking too much P2P did I experience hallucinations. Hearing things that weren't real, not seeing only hearing. Like music or ppl talking that wasn't real. I wouldn't call that having mental illness or delusions or psychosis like some do. Just hallucinations like you'd have from any other hallucinalgentics, dmt, mushrooms etc... these days I prefer to go down than up but need that little bit a day to keep from getting so sick. Call me what you will, I'm not perfect but no one is. This is what we had and we somehow were the lucky ones who lived to tell this tale. Yes, my health isn't the best but I never wanted to live forever. The way the world is going none of us will so I'm ok with my choices in life be them good or bad, wrong or right they were my choices. Thanks for your openess on this subject that effect so many. No haters please!!
Walking the same shoes...scared as hell as that fent takes over finding its way into everything...be careful and stay safe! God Speed! You are loved 💖
Anyone else remember that old anti drug commercial of a lady on meth cleaning a house and the song saying " I cant sleep and I cant eat but I got the cleanest house on the street oh meth mmmm meth lmao
All this shows is how cracking down on the supply leads to stronger, cheaper, & deadlier drugs on the black market.
I am four years sober of that garbage. Thank god worst time of my life.
So I started using in 2003 every day all day for three years and I had both the super and The ephedra based meth. I do agree I’ve never seen one person die from an overdose on it it slowly kills you when I first started doing it I was 125 pound by the time I decided to quit I was 88 pounds my hair was falling out my skin was gray and when you would touch me I would cry sometimes when people would hug me it would feel like my bones were breaking I do believe a friend of mine gave me a hug and I did fracture a couple ribs because of it being so small I mean. I had to have my kids go live with her father just so I can get my self clean because at that time there was not a rehab anywhere that we could find it would take me with insurance because insurance wouldn’t cover anything like that at that time dad lost his insurance and they told my parents it would be $50,000 that was just a start my kids wanted me to quit so bad all it took was my youngest son San on his birthday mommy please quit doing drugs before you die and I don’t have a mommy anymore my son was six years old that was it for me I quit cold turkey no rehab no medication nothing my father sent for me on a bust from Arizona to Texas my dad and my sister locked me in their house for three months I was not allowed to be left alone for three months then I was allowed to go to the grocery store for 20 to 30 minutes at a time and someone had to go with me six months later I was able to leave the house on my own in the end it took me 10 years to quit hearing voices to quit having the schizophrenia like episodes I have been clean this July will be 16 years have I craved it in the past yes have I went back to it no now I see a friend of mine dying from it she got a $250,000 inheritance from her grandparents when they died she’s blowing through all of it pretty much on drugs and getting other people drugs now she’s living in a motel six and $18,000 in a year how did the $250,000 Petaluma bother to try and get the RV that she wanted and she’s gonna be out of money and she’s going to be homeless soon and unfortunately I cannot have that around me I will not allow her back in my life that way I will always be her friend and I will always be there for her but I have a good job and took me a long time to get to the pay that I am making and I unfortunately cannot have that drug destroy my life again as a matter of fact I will not have that drug destroy my life again ever
You look out for number1 And keep strong llove
This ends hear right now I'm flushing it all down the toilet a lot of it I'm seriouse
.on this day the orb declares to be drug free .
Yoo how are you
Did u quit?
How's it going one month later sober or not?
Tonight im done. This new shit is killing my lungs.
Ive lost 4 friends in 3 yrs to this crap.
You're chasing that first high,
you'll never find it again...
Amen to that
I struggled with Opiate addiction , this was bad enough but as im learning more about Meth this seems much more difficult to kick , plus ive heard that some people experience lasting effects after quitting Meth , one woman said her brain can't produce natural endorphins anymore due to the damage from Meth , imagine never feeling naturally good anymore that goosebumps feeling you get from your natural endorphins high , that must be horrible. I remember the hell I went through quitting Opiates can't explain it totally but its bad , but finally when it was over and I could finally give my body natural rest and finally Sleep. DONT F$%K WITH DRUGS KIDS CAUSE THEY WILL FINALLY F&%K YOU YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR FRIENDS
Opiates are harder to kick than meth is.
This just changed my life thank you so much I’ve been suffering for a long long time and I was doing the stuff they told me to do for the most part yet i was heading to a darker and darker place and never did i imagine that sequence after sequence of events could be mapped out and attributed to the next problem or downfall I would fall prey to and it proves that without a proven plan of recovery with proven methods and safety measures and back up plans you could be moving threw revolving doors easily kept in a mode of failure and exposure to even larger pitfalls and only tiring yourself out running the slow race u may not finish it gave me a change of heart and mind to have a understandable explanation for my actions and how I became the worste version of myself i could imagine I know exactly how now bc my best route and options were still a setup for failure and slavery not to mention a paycheck for the oppressor /big pharma /cartel party so I’m gonna be part of the solution and spread this information and try to inspire people who are also suffering feeling my pain I feel like I found the last piece to a puzzle I’ve been working on forever. I hope the information can become even more fourth coming and spread with efficiency and urgency in the future I’ll do all I can to be a positive contributor to that cause as I feel the internal change associated with the emotion attached Thanks you !!!!
I’m rooting for you! Hope to hear more from you.
I too find myself in a similar position as described here. You aren't out of the fire though. Know this. Sometimes fire is used to put out a fire. If you are still going to burn may as well burn with a purpose and plan to be a part of the fire that is putting out the fire that is raging and destroying families and lives.
Meth is the vehicle for a psychological epidemic that has spanned and has been spanning for decades.
@trey ghost
Thank you for attention to the false "recovery" etc programs, designed to fail & keep you coming back, while blaming you, for it not working. With its 97% failure rate over 2 yrs?
Many beliefs etc are completely wrong.
However it's the only kind ins is likely to pay for.
Yes then the big Pharmas have their dangerous equally dangerous drugs & cocktails w side effects that are so common u r exception if you don't have them. They all are seriously dangerous mentally & physically.
Do research.
Do anything possible to get into alternative treatments esp if it is 6-9 Mos.
Just detoxing isn't rehabilitating.
I am 20yrs clean from meth and yes it screwed up my head 20 yrs later I have mental issues from it
Comments like this dont help anyone thinking of getting clean.
Compared to what I was dealing with it's a blessing that I am clean and that is the main thing. Not in jail or a grave . I've paid off my home my car and my Harley Davidsons . This should be an inspiration for those who want to get clean
It's better to get clean again.. as far as mental issues. I understand it opened up my consciousness and more i tuned with spiritual telepathy and hypersensitivity to basically everything..
Nit everybody is the sams though.
I have seen it tear every one apart chewed up spit out.. .
Its all on what's in one heart that produces the outcome.. guard ya mind and it will feed the hear
Wait,!!or was it the other way around
God bless you all going through this wuth us all
I wish they would do something like this about pre 1980 crystal meth when the drug was cleaner and safer.
Why would anyone want to stay awake for 3 days and nights? I don’t get it. I would hate not being able to get a good nights sleep!
Very informative and enlightening as to the epidemic running rampant in our cities and towns. I often have been wondering what in the world has changed so much on the streets of America, now I know, we are embroiled in a epic drug crisis again!
where is a link to addiction? or recovery services? Narcotics Anonymous etc?
I finally sobered up. It was very hard. The hardest part is being human again and be social.
What can you do if a loved one is addicted and spiraling downward rapidly? And they refuse help, while other family members are in denial and enablers - they regard you as the" enemy" for trying to help. Plus the addict has no insurance and you have no money for rehab or an intervention team.
Let them go. There's nothing you can do.
Crystal meth has rendered me mentally disabled permanently sadly even after getting sober sigh I’m sober but 8 years of my life were stolen from me by this drug and I’m now dying of heart problems. Started at 13 and hear dead by 22
I got heart failure man from slamming so much.. nobody told me about that shit.my time is limited too..I feel you
The whole war on drugs thing told everyone, every drug is bad but they're going about it wrong. They don't kill immediately, but short term they can be amazing and that's the worst part. It didn't kill me, and was great, let's do it again and then addiction is formed not long after.
Spend your remaining time teaching others the eventual price to be paid isn't worth the momentary buzz.
holy crap i recovered from meth when it was all made with ephedrine. i had no idea the recipe had changed, this explains how an old friend who used had managed just fine enough till around 2013 when he just straight lost his mind. this makes sense now how he went from a somewhat functional addict to a complete scitzo rather suddenly. glad i dont use hard drugs anymore. the occasional acid trip is enough for me.
Thankyou from NZ and you are AWESOME!!! This video is really helpful. Cheers.
I wish I could get it out of my daily intake. I know it starts with me. I just haven't built up the strength to do so.
its hard to find the start place or time. we can tho but holding on is a long ride.
