Alcohol was my drug of choice but as I got older I did harder drugs and loved them. Vicadin I absolutely loved. I have been clean a sober for 18 years with a few slips on pot. The five years before I got sober I did meth heavily. I loved it. I never did smoke only snort.
Two weeks after I got sober I skitzed out. I went into what is called amphetimine post acute withdrawal. I was pyschotic and whacked. It lasted for a whole year before I came back to my old self. I was three weeks in the mental hospital before they would let me out. On haildol for a year. they wouldn't let me drive for six months. I can tell you that meth will whack your brain chemistry for a long time.
