DO NOT get me started on the military - it seems like everyone's on drugs & nobody thinks this is a problem. Anyway, when he got out, he didn't need to stay up all night anymore, but I'm sure he would have kept using anyway had he been able to get some meth. He hasn't touched it in 12 years.

I've never done anything heavier than pot, drugs scare the **** out of me. And I don't smoke pot anymore because I don't like it anymore. The last 2 times I got high I got sick. So screw that. If I want to get sick, I'll drink too much. Cheaper & legal.

Um, I dont know about your neck of the woods but meth/crank has been around since at least the 70's. I grew up in the Bay Area and it was around all over (Im talking the ENTIRE 70's) in my mid 20's I moved to the Chico/Paradise area and it was there too. In CA, as far as I know, because its so easy to make/buy, its been everywhere....

I dont use, never have. dont like pot (HATE it in fact) so I didnt go down the tubes like a majority of my friends did...I just thank GAWD that I escaped the sad cycle I see so many people on....its truly tragic...
