TRIGGER WARNING *POST CONTAINS DISCUSSION OF CSA (childhood sexual abuse*







Grade 6 (11-12y/o) i started smoking, drinking, smoking weed. By grade 7(12-13y/o) added acid, mushrooms, by grade 9 (14-15y/o) i added speed, crystal meth, cocaine continued to do all of these till I added crack at 18, i became very addicted to crack till about 19-20 i stopped all drugs and had a breakdown while withdrawing from the crack. Mentally i never recovered. I Got married at 21 and have been clean ever since. Accept i still smoke and i do drink on occasion.
The timing of CSA and my starting drinking/smoking/drugs was EXACTLY the same. So i know for a fact that this was my best attempt to "cope" with the sexual abuse.
