DOSE:
  repeated smoked Methamphetamine (powder / crystals)
  1 cig. smoked Tobacco - Cigarettes  
BODY WEIGHT: 100 lb
Keep in mind: For the most part I am the ideal user of crystal. I am a full time college student at a university in my hometown and the year I graduated from highschool, (when I first started doing shit) I actually graduated 4th in my class with honors and as president of national honors society.

I started doing shit (meth) with a girl who through the experience became my best friend. Megan was a hard-core tweaker and when she didnt get her fix she ended up being the most terrible person to be around. But one day she happened to spark my interest of trying the drug when I actually saw her physically do it. I was fascinated at how it was done, smoked out of this little glass pipe. And of the huge white clouds of smoke that came out of her mouth when she exhaled. It was amazing. That night I confessed to her that I wanted to try it and with the spending of 80 bucks we bought a gram of what I didnt know at the time was some extremely good shit. We got the sack and spent the next two hours at her dealers house smoking bowl after bowl after bowl. It was insane.

At first my mouth got way dry, then I was totally sped up and couldnt handle sitting down any longer. Finally I got up to have a cigarette outside. The first drag of the cig was great. It was the best cigarette I had ever had in my entire life. After my cig I got up and went inside to only stare at the fan going around in circles while I felt nothing but confusion. The entire time I was there I felt like everyone was plotting something terrible against me and that I was the only one not in on some big secret.
I found out later that I was what I call pipe drunk (that I had smoked entirely too much dope to function properly) and decided I didnt like the drug for the life of me.

That changed quickly. A few months later I decided to do it again and loved it. I've been doing it ever since, which is about a year now. I try to eat when I'm on one (high) so I dont lose too much weight, that used to be a big problem in the beginning. When I started out I was 125 lbs and now I'm struggling to stay above 100 lbs with my frequent usage of the drug.
I have seen many people fall of the deep end with it and sell their house, car, computer, etc just to get their next fix. I have found that most people that do it are losers, beside the very few that I have found at my current university and no one wants to become or be a loser.
