Life of debauchery

My life is a never-ending debauchery express to hell. I feel as if Satan is on my right and left shoulder most days and the only little bit of good left inside of me is powered by an underlining ulterior motive. I know there was once a pure and beautiful young girl within, I just don’t know where I went wrong and lost who I was.

was it because my mother and father separated when I was young? or the fact that I was introduced to a world of adult perversions at the age of seven? Was it because my father had trouble expressing how he felt and thought love was something you could buy? I was tortured at school and home, most of it was mental. I was always an outcast, a misfit, a loser. I always wanted to be “normal” and to fit in. But I realized in late highschool that that was not the path I was directed in.

I began dressing differently, sneaking out and drinking alcohol at the age of 13. I hung out with people who where like me. I fit in. Although the choices this group made were negative and looked down upon by societies lowest standers I found a group I belonged in. I wasnt sure if these people I was hanging out with, or the guys I was hooking up with, truly liked me but it didn’t matter. It was the closest thing to acceptance I had ever felt and I felt good…or at least I thought I did.

The truth was I didn’t except myself. I drowned my pain and sorrow with copious amounts of alcohol and dabbled in the dark world of amphetamines. I was depressed. This was the start of my endless down hill spiral to self-destruction. I would cut myself to feel a release of tension and soon started sleeping with many random men. Sometimes six in one night. I was called horrific names and still held my head high in public, acting as if the slander and personal attacks didn’t faze me. I walked through school and I felt a thousand eyes on me. Isnt that what every teenage girl wants? isn’t that what I had wished for? Yes. But when I wished upon a star for the entire school to know who I was and to look at me while I made my way through the streets or school I pictured it to be in a much more positive light.

Although I am now an adult and no longer attend school, the rumours and actions I perform havent changed. I still hang out with the misfits, still love my drugs, still get too drunk that i cant remember my name and I still look for comfort by spreading my legs to those who don’t appreciate me. Am I destined to live my life in sin? Do I want to change? I tell myself I do but I have been lying to myself and allowing others around me to fill my head with lies my entire life. was me changing my life just a lie I have concocted or is this for real?

1 week clean!

just last week I decided i need to and want to get rid of the terrible, evil crystal meth addiction I was controlled by. I had had enough and I had lost everything. My husband, my house, friendships and worst of all my son! It was a wake up call I needed. In that point of time I had two options…1. say “fuck it! I’ve lost everything. I might as well give up and continue smoking this revolting, chemical packed substance” or 2. Get off the stuff, hold my head high and fight my way to the top again. I have chosen option number 2 and I can honestly say life is a lot brighter. I have been clean for one week today! I could not be happier or prouder of myself.

This is the 3rd time I have attempted to get off the pipe, but how I see it is every time I fall back into temptation it is a lesson. eliminate those who are toxic within your life. This is hard but needs to happen in order to eliminate temptation. Dont put yourself in situations that may have a negative impact on you. This means don’t go to any place you belive there may be drugs or people who may have drugs.

At first it started off as recreational, then it became a necessity.I would be complete dead weight without some kind of opiate in my system. i was taking anywhere from 2 to 5 points a day of meth for months. each day I feel a bit better without it. Not going to lie, the restlessness still lingers as well as the occasional thought of running back to the drug. My energy level is low but I am feeling high on life. Once I past the four-day mark I felt confident that I could slay this addiction. I’ve tried in the past to go cold turkey it but I just fell back in the hole by the 3rd day (once I lasted 3 years). I thought the worse of the withdraws would be gone by the 3rd day. I was fooled, it was hell all night, up and down, kicking the blankets off and on over n over again, and some crying, ok a lot of crying. I hadn’t really been eating well either as I have no appetite. anytime I did try to eat, i was forcing it. its like i was too tired to eat or my stomach had shrunk, but I know I have to eat well to get well…I really just miss the days where I could sleep well n wake up feeling great. i miss having the energy i used to have. I miss my son!

My son is what is keeping me going on the quest of quitting and staying clean. One more week and I am able to see him. When attempting to get clean one must have goals and my goal is being able to be a part of my son’s life. This doesn’t mean once I get to see him that I will go out and smoke. This is just my first goal I have set myself. My next goal after that is finding a house or flat to move into. I can’t continue to live in a motel. Motels are for junkies, hookers, people just out of jail, cheaters and of cause if you are having a holiday. Since i am neither of those things and I am unfortunately not on holiday I think it is time to pack up and move out.

The future is looking up and I must say its a lot brighter up there.
