I am 16 and have been into meth since I was 12. I just recently choose to stop. At first I couldn't because drugs are all I know. I have done everything there is. I have never had an overdose. I have been to inpatient rehab 3 times in the past 2 years. I am also in foster care. I have been in the system for 2 almost 3 years. I will be in foster care until I am 18. I have seen things that no one should have to see. I have seen people killed, had someone I didn't even know die in my arms and it was over a drug deal. I have been through shit that no one should go through. My uncle raped me. I was sold for drugs by some of my family. I have survived a lot for my age. I just want to let people know that you don't have to live your life under the power of drugs. I am still struggling with my addictions. I have been clean for 50 days. I don't remember a lot of things that I did while using. I want to help people. I pray for those still suffering and struggling with addiction. I hope that by sharing my experiences that i have helped someone. I would like to hear from others and to know if I helped someone.
