I left oz in 91 with a raging heroin habit. My boyfriend Torry was clean & helped me get away back to family in the UK, I got on a maintenance methadone programme & have finally been straight for more than 5yrs. I owe my friend a great deal because not long after I left Sydney the Ice epidemic struck & I'm quite sure I'd have gone for that.
Even though clean I will always be a recovering addict & susceptible to any & all drugs. I'm in my mid 50's & my heart goes out to all those affected by drugs & the families that usually suffer the consequences most & they too go through hell.
When?
Good to hear you made it out of your addiction.
Why the. Younger gen.wasting their healthy organs while sick patients waiting for transplant process .
Well done brotha, methadone has its critics but I think it’s pretty good- it gives addicts time to get well. Respect from the North East
55 and battled booze n drugs all my life but luckily not the brown......although booze n coke can be a slower death ! In Bali getting sober so i dont crave coke or booze on my return to London. Its never too late , glad you made it .
I am sure they are putting ice in the coke........hits different the last couple of years .
Going after the users is not going to solve the problem
No, but we still have to go after the users. They present a host of problems without necessarily being involved in the supply chain: in the video, there were parts explaining how the users burglarize normal peoples' homes and steal working peoples' credit card information and even identities in order to fuel their habit; that man trying to secure a meth deal with a pregnant woman is just a user who got "good" at securing his next fix. You can't just ignore that, normal people deserve to not live in fear of having someone break into their house where there children are sleeping, or having someone sell methamphetamines to their unwitting teenagers. There's a root cause to all of these drug addictions and overdoses but we can't just let addicts do their thing until that root cause is effectively addressed. That'd be mad
Edit/disclaimer: I'm not trying to be heartless, just realistic.. I'm currently only 3 years clean from the shit, myself, lost everything and had to go to rehab. Not looking for credit just making the point that I know what it's like, but that doesn't make it right.
Also think of all of the hospital beds that go to people who chose to poison themselves.. we psychiatric patients clean from drugs are 1 in 10, where I live, we have to wait hours and hours to be seen by emergency psychiatric services because the other 9 in 10 are high on meth and it takes a long time to come down from that shit. Then they get released and do it all over again. We're even forced to interact with meth users who are actually on the stuff or so irritable from coming down that they're intolerable and even dangerous, imagine suffering from PTSD flashbacks and nightmares that are driving you to consider suicide and some jackass who hit the pipe 2 hours ago is screaming in your face that the doctors and nurses are Nazis for not injecting him with 4mg of lorazepam. It's insane
Yes it does it reduces violent and petty crime
The sticker "cops are tops" made me laugh 4:50
Another amazing documentary. Well done y'all.
🍦 cream is a Great desert
You say "they chose to do it", means you really don't understand addiction.
Ikr, that man lacks empathy and compassion.
This documentary got me addicted to ice
Here in Oregon people doing these drugs right on the sidewalks. Can’t go downtown cities without getting harassed by junkies.
You don't have to be downtown anymore. It's everywhere.
Ice is a demonic drug. The user becomes a vessel for demons. This is no hyperbole.
You have no idea how en pointe your comment is
Yeah but u said it like it's a bad thing- it doesn't pay to be judgmental
@@David-tt1rb It is a bad thing, really fucking up portions of society here in NZ. A real conduit for gangs.
15:20 WHOA, no way! I used to look up to him as a surfer in the 90s.
Damn that ish gets everybody, doesn't it?
IM LOST 20 YEARS OF MY LIFE, TO DRUGS. YOU WILL NEVER GET THAT TIME BACK FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS, BEEN SOBER SINCE AUGUST 16TH 2009
Great! it all about the recovery and rehabilitation. and dealers we all know where they should go. Good job Australia.
35:00 totally didnt see that coming 😅
💀🤦🏼♂️
To the person who wants to get of the methamphetamine but can't get into rehab you can do it by yourself I'm five months clean now i hope this helps in your decision
How did you get on with needing to sleep for 20 hours a day for days on end
Did special operations spread drugs all over the world?
R.I.P CLEO

@@deiandrei0412 sorry to hear that. evil drug
Hard to believe the title, it's not hidden it's everywhere and in plain site
It’s so expensive there, $100 a gram vs. $20 in cali, so they inject it and go super nuts
Where did they get that money?
@@keelyjohnson462 crime
Closer to $350 - $500 a gram of ice in most of Australia.
in new zealand it is $100 a point
SHIT BRO WHO DO YOU KNOW SELLING 100 DOLLAR GRAMS OF P ???
I think huge punishments for even small amounts should be considered? Why to people even touch this ? Iv tried most things but this crap I wouldn’t ever consider. What makes someone think they won’t end up destroying there lives ?
Man I wish I never touched this garbage. Seriously, there's certain drugs you should not experiment or play around with, this is one of those drugs. This stuff genuinely will turn you into a whole different person.
22:14 That Girl is the Biggest Walking Advertisement for Ice User, Her teeth, her Skin the Grin on her face when she's trying to say "No I Never Do Ice"???? Seriously they think everyone's Stupid and fell from the top of a Christmas Tree.
31:49 😂
I have read that there are aussie’s checking themselves into rehab that have done crystal meth every day for 2-3 years. Meaning they have not slept during that time. I cannot fathom what in the world that does to one’s body let alone their brain after that length of time without sleep. 😱
Literally impossible lol of course they've slept just maybe less than most
@@Shhshsusuu that’s what I thought but several recovery counselors at the facilities said the same 🤷🏻♀️
They have been sleeping every single week atleast once
Lol u still sleep😂
@@Kirt44 you would think so, but I’m just going by articles I’ve read as well as what drug counselors have said backing that up. I’ve never even seen crystal meth let alone used it, but it’s reportedly a very strong upper that keeps people awake for as long as they keep using it every day.
You should be targeting the organized groups and the dealers not the users ...if there were no drugs there be no users
the cop at 07:20 has no clue....give him a lesson in mental health,abuse, ptsd , hopefully he will not get a lesson from someone close to him .
Singapore has a simple solution for this problem, and it works.
The way he parked so fast I bet the trunk was full of drugs but these cops are so dumb lol 😆
We’ve been paying so much attention to opioids that jib is starting to come back, I’m in Canada and it’s taking over here too I just got sober off it about 10 months back
Its funny how they say meth is battery acid, battery acid is only the chemicals used to synthesize it, if its dont correctly it should have no leftover chemicals or impurities but thats the problem the cooks are not scientist or chemists so there is a ton of bad meth because its not sanctioned or overseen, when in reality if they were to legalize it and sell pure meth with no other chemicals or impurities and measured doses that you could control it would not be that bad. remember that they make cannabis wax and concentrate by running butane liter fluid gas they also use other gases like propane to extract it then they vacuumed pump all the left over gas. this is only the process they use to make it if done correctly and professionally your not actually smoking battery acid and chemicals. this is highly stupid thing to say but yes there are impurities left over because these are not chemist or professionals and i think this causes more problems than the drug itself as well as dosage. just legalized it and give them pure safe product in dosages that wont send them mad. the illegalization is what is killing people instead why not make it safer so they dont have to be criminals anymore and they dont go crazy. if you sold them clean 5mg rocks they could smoke threw out the day you would never have this problem and they could actually be productive citizens or 2mg rocks they could have 10mg a day and be complete fine instead they are just going mad because you wont give them a safe clean product in a controlled dosage. if you cared about these people this is what yall would do but you look at them as targets your making money on them
Ice ice baby
Why is he being stopped for no reason at all. He was just walking....These 2 cops are messed up for real. Can you imagine what they would say if there wasnt a camera on them? I also have 2 phones, 1 is for close friends/family and the other is for social media and friendly ladies
the police is not polite enough, drug addiction is not to blame like they say
Far out and you can still buy ice at the base of the escalator at blacktown station from the desperate opposite the 7/11 shop 24 hours a day when the police are not around or just skip around to the seating outside the west point entrance opposite the library and away ya go.
Fuck your spangled ass comment
Pitty about loud music
holy fk even tommy carrol 😮
In New Zealand try $450-600 a gram...
How do you know ..sir lol
Just call it an experience in life
You lost a leg and KEPT DOONG IT.......................
One puff and ya hooked it terrible happened to me 2 months it took to chuck it in worst 2 months of my life I was lucky I had will power I’ve seen a lot of mates go jail and die from this don’t take it lightly as this ruins life’s and family’s
We have already done this in America. Now it’s starting in Australia
I've given the prevention strategy since 2016, how many have been completed?
no fent?
Now it's fetty
@@JJ-Toreddie whats that
@@bevs9995fentanyl
so in aussie land you can just searchn whoever whenever. sounds terrible.
Hobbies and interests relative to the draft resolution all ages all genders on or off the planet. Apprentices everywhere.
Mate we grow up getting pulled over and searched. It's always been like that since we were a prison colony.
@@emptyemptiness8372 I saw it as the spirit is always with you from the Bible
I thought the same thing. I was confused at first. Where's your search warrant? No warrant? No search will be conducted. Have a nice day.
I am stationed in Australia right now and the biggest surprise to me was the lack of gun rights and how there are no ultimate protections against the government taking them
UK interceptors / Cops can stop and search cars and people without warrants.
That’s true but they need reasonable articulate suspicion that they have or are about to commit a crime…
Government run the. Show they let the meth in
Let it in??.. people just make it in their shed.
Flight School Recovery! Sign me up; -)
Noticed many Boeing's almost crashing lately everyone thinks that's because of dei but I think it's because of meth heads in the sky
The pilot rehab fella should be in jail, overdosing his girl and playing victim
Absolute waste of resources and strain on the health system
Hasnt hit the uk at all. Because our coke is so cheap
Wow personally I despise Meth BUT these Australian COPS are the WORST /- They take An
Ice is draining the lifeblood of Australia, but at least it's not draining the ice cream supply, right? 🍦
Legalize all drugs.
LOL, capital punishment for importation. Meth comes from big pharma , get rid of big pharma
You can tell he deals just by looking at him. And I'm not talking about the gold or cash either.
These people have there inner demons not just you sleeping in a beautiful home
They got no type of rights there smh cops just going through phones and a car without any warrant
If Australia is truly experiencing a meth “crisis” why are law enforcement wasting time and money on arresting users, small batch cooks and low level dealers and not doing anything about the top tier suppliers from Mexico and China? Seems kinda fucked to me
It is heading to be like America. When it does, good luck. Sentencing is a muck
Dna testing for .2 of meth
This copper is totally lacking insight into addiction- it’s a pity backseat he thinks it’s the best job in the world- he probably thinks he’s doing a great job of it…🤔
the blond chick is off her chops.....tweeeekin hard.
It's only a few that run like this & it's because it's illegal, the war on drugs will never be won until then, drugs r winning that war.ive shot shit my whole life basically & never lied or stolen anything 4 my lifestyle, it may not b good 4 everyone but it's good for me & that's the only person I can account for, take care and stay safe
improve wages and meaningful employment so people can get ahead and this kinda nonsense will diminish greatly
Australia has some of the highest wages in the world. Some people can not be helped
Why do ausies have to change the word meth in to ice like burger King to hungry Jack's wtf
I was the manager of the royal hotel in bonding in 1983/84 been french even then I thought it would get bigger . Sorry but this is real society cancer
Ice is police, anything ice related has to do with police or regulating and controlling. Pay attention.
Where I live in Canada they give the addicts their drugs , all sponsored through the Canadian government 😅
So how do the drug dealers make a living?
How do the pimp control the working girls ?
Some humans like doing fukall faster
Wait till the fentanyl hit's
australia is shit now. governments need to bring in max penalties for dealing in ice
Thats a joke the car was his so whats in the car is his
Australian needs to step up and get her gun rights solidified
People are still stupid getting high
Very informative, I tried what I told you about and it was mind blowing to see her writhing with pleasure and ready for anything. It started when I learned to last at least 30 minutes go’ogling the latest in Greyzar Drinbo's PE Solution and now she just can't have enough
DRUGS and PORN are destroying EVERYTHING.
I'm all for dico,s like this, but seriously the amount of BS these cops spew out is disappointing. The super strength comment, the meth teeth etc are baseless with not serious evidence to support. The teeth situation is a direct result of poor and disappearing personal grooming/ hygiene due more so to sleep deepervation. My point being there are users that do managed there health.
Dealing with this epidemic with a justice/ criminal solution will never work.
Addiction is a medical, the extreme behaviours that are recounted in this doco are sleep deprecation predominantly.
Yes it's a filthy terrible drug that destroys society jailing is not the answer.
100% true
Methamphetamine use can lead to reduced saliva production, resulting in dry mouth. Saliva plays a role in protecting the teeth by neutralizing acids produced by bacteria and washing away food particles. With reduced saliva, the mouth becomes more acidic, promoting tooth decay and erosion.
Hi, thanks for the additional scientific info, was not aware of the significance. The proof is always in the pudding I suppose.
Surely with good oral hygiene brushing rinsing etc, would eliminate a large percentage of this acid decay?
Just as there is a percentage of the non Meth users in society that have rotten teeth, damaged enamel, or worst missing teeth due to the lack of oral health?
I guess there will always be drug addiction, so is it better to say 'Meth use rots your teeth' in which case nothing changes.
Or to say and promote good oral hygiene with regular clean fluid intake, while taking and the like?
Hopefully aidding in prevention, rather than treatment?
But I'm a builder and certainly don't mind good sound logic backed by scientic evidence.
👍
@Palestrina, you sound authoritative on oral happens? Be keen to hear your thoughts on the damage of mainstream commercial toothpaste with fluoride. It seems like that be non discriminative in the removal of bacterial in your mouth both good and bad?
Thoughts?
I'm so high right now
Its kind of sad
me too 😅
Junkie
The higher you get, the further you'll fall
I'm so STONED !GATE13SW6CREW uk
junkie can fly a plane...why this is my dream and i cannot
Coz he sorted himself out and paid for it. If it’s your dream and you’re not even a “junkie” but you can’t do it then you must be quite a pathetic loser
Silly Bogans.....
What racist garbage, the bad Black man with 20 bucks worth of dope a couple cops that wont go after the real dealers and pounds of dope but low level dealers lol
Wow not good turn to Jesus
He isn’t gonna help crap
I didn't know there were black people in Australia I worked there for 2 years and never saw 1
They’re native there they literally tried to breed them out but they’re still there
Australia's native people(aborigines)
Last note. Jesus Christ warned folks about messing with children. Gods wrath is coming for you. 😢. Thats all...............................
Bye bye ice dealer.
Course there’s the abos involved
Of course there's Caucasians involved
