Since this thread has gone cold
I'll just remind yez, that whatever you do, DO NOT UPSET A METH ADDICT. HUMOUR THEM. CAUSE THEY WILL FIX ON YOU LIKE A FERRET. METAL WILL START FLYING. YOU WILL HAVE TO SUFFER TO GRATIFY THEM. METH HEADS ARE ALL THE SAME BECAUSE THEY ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF THEIR CHEAP DRUG: CRANKY MEAN MEGALOMANIACS IN THE US IT IS CALLED "CRANK" FOR A VERY GOOD REASON. |

From my experience at work its apparent that crims we could previously work with while they're in custody are very different when they use ice.
We are seeing frequent flyers who used to be reasonable and compliant now acting out with extreme agitation and violence. They tend to have shed most of their clothing before being arrested and have a tendency to play with their faeces. I have yet to deal with an inmate who has demonstrated irrational behaviour whilst being under the influence of ice returning to their usual self. It does seem to be a one way street with a lot of traffic. It seems that the older model Camry has become the choice of vehicle for junkies and other scum. |

Or the old Meth Magna, lol.
Ice addicts are hard to deal with, Fantasy users take it to a whole new level.

Sad & a potential tragedy waiting to happen. Its obvious a intervention needs to take place imo, the kid needs to be kept away from his so called mates & start a new life somewhere far away from them...

Yeah and i wasn't the steroetypical living in the gutter, rob people for money type user either. Like many other i was embarrassed and secretive about my use. I held down a career and relationship and no one knew. But it was a dark secret i never wanted anyone to know. I also found out there were many like me who worked normal jobs, had normal lives and you wouldn't suspect them, but its more prevalent then you think.
Having no one to talk to or help made it a bit harder but i was able to stop. If anyone needs help or someone to talk to, i understand what you are going through and would be only to willing to help |

There is a lot of everyday people you would never expect using this stuff, thats exactly why it's such a big issue for current society. Everyday people that are well off upper middle class getting conned into try it instead of cocaine, and the spiral starts. |

The media portrays it as you will go psycho and stab people but for 95% of users this isn't true. I am not a violent and never had any violent tendencies while on it. To most people who use, it just makes you feel incredibly good and willing to tackle the world. You feel excited to do anything, even cleaning, and the energy you have is the thing which hooks people. Imagine feeling like you are 18 all the time? i had that kinda energy and drive while on it.I never felt tired. I would get up on the weekend at 6, have a smoke and then do the lawns, maintain the house, work on my car, and do other duties all while enjoying the hell out of it. The only problem is that doesn't last forever |

So it will get you eventually? I am not doubting your story, I just thought that ice turned a person into a wack job overnight...

If they showed on the news a bloke going to work and functioning normally but having a smoke in the toilets it wouldn't grab your attention would it? Last edited by fordomatic; 04-02-2016 at 10:57 PM. |

It will get you eventually.. It gets everyone eventually which is why its a dangerous drug. It starts off small. Me and a friend used to dabble in minor drugs when younger. Then when he was completing his degree at uni, he needed to stay up one night so he tried it. I had a few beers and had smoke from the pipe too. Within 5 mins i felt an incredible rush and instantly felt good. and confident! The confidence you have is incredible. Then it turned into we went and bought a pipe and started smoking on weekends only. That lasted for about 2-3 months just using on the weekend. Then one monday morning i woke up exhausted and tired and not feeling like going to work. I had a little bit left so at 5 in the morning i have a smoke and went to work. I felt so good at work all day and it was the best feeling not being tired.. This eventually led to me smoking everyday, mon to fri. It eventually became the norm. The thing that gets you though is not being on it. I ran out of money one week so i had no money. It was the worst week of my life because i was coming down and felt like ****. Thats what this drug does to you, it makes you need it to feel normal again. I am lucky though because after using for 3 years, i was able to stop. It was incredibly hard but something i needed to do, to keep my job and partner. I couldn't afford to keep doing it either..My partner never knew believe it or not.. Life is good now |

To Top_Ghia and blakef6, You would be surprised. I was an Operations Consultant for a large multinational company, I worked in an office. This drug doesn't discriminate. Lower,middle and upper class people all do it. And its much more prevalent than you think. Think about people you work with, there are a few who would be doing it but you wouldn't know. This would go for family members to.
To people who haven't done it, you might not notice people who are on it, but I can notice the particular behaviours of people who use it because of my experience. There would also be forums members who use in secret and are problem reading this, looking for a way to stop. That's why I said I am willing to help anyone if needed |

For matters to get so out of hand it cannot be explained or brushed off as inept law enforcement or incompetent public administration. A drugged society has been on the cards since the Height Ashbury concept in San Francisco. |

I mean its in our instincts to self medicate if something is wrong. People take drugs (legal/illegal) for a variety of reasons, not to just get off their face for fun. A lot do it to forgot traumatic experiences in their life (child abuse etc) and a variety of other mental health issues reasons. I used to do drugs because it was the only way I could stop thinking about the horror I was subjected to as a child. It numbed a pain and made me feel normal and good again

If so many people are doing ice, and it will eventually make the user do stupid things, according to info in this thread, is it reasonable to predict that the wave of drug induced pandemonium will impact society in an ever increasingly negative way?
Many say the laws are not working now but I shudder to think of the horror that would befall society without them... |
