I thought meth was just for poor folks out here in flyover country. Didn't realize that many celebrities use it. For people who depend on their looks, it seems like a terrible choice.
There is no drug that is "immediately addictive". Addiction happens because of the user, not the drug. Most "addicts" are self-medicating for a reason, and it isn't because they have an addictive personality, or bad genes. They're making something unpleasant go away.
Actually it's both the user and the drug. There are specific drugs whose pharmacology makes them more addictive for certain users. There's a lot more that goes into addiction than self- medicating though that can be a starting point.
uggh... Cheez Whiz.... Meth really is like that. if you haven't done it you don't know. watching people turn into skeletons and pick at their faces for no reason is unreal. i've seen the best people go down with this one and it had nothing to do with unpleasantness
@Treehouse, I'll take your word for it. We get told meth is a rural Midwest thing because one ingredient is something farmers use a lot of, and it's easier to hide production here, but I'm sure it get distributed. One look at before-and-after pictures was enough to warn me off for good. It looks brutal.
Anhydrous Ammonia, i believe. There are a few different methods to making it. Real reason it is popular in the mid west is because coke is in shorter supply than major metro areas.
Soror: really? I'm in NJ, not really a meth hot bed since the early 80s, and chances are if i go to the 3 closest CVS stores, 2 of em will be sold out of the 24hr sudafed pills.

ReplyDeleteAs soon as I saw her insta post with her "acne scars" I instantly thought Meth scabs.
Is it true that crack is immediately addictive and you pretty much can't wean yourself off it? Curious cause I've never used it.
ReplyDelete@boo: no. I have known several people whi smoked crack from time to time and werent addicted to it.

"Fly over country".... you are seriously detached to think this isn't happening all over

DeleteChinelle of course! Recently had her meth sores worked on by a dermatologist. She ain't fooling nobody!
ReplyDeleteMost meth is made outside of the US and trafficked in these days, so the days of the "home meth lab" are gone for the most part.
