A relative was crystal meth addict 14 yrs, now says won't live long, huffs & puffs a lot?
I wonder what is going on with her, she now is very overweight, and is out of breath when she just walks across the room. She also flies into periodic rages, and keeps saying that she won't live much longer.She had to have all of her teeth removed, and get false teeth. She eats a very bad diet, and I wonder, if at times, she isn't still using the drug from time to time. She eats a very bad diet, high in cholesterol. She occasonally has slurred speech, and irrational behavior. I know there are possible heart problems with long time crystal meth use, and I wonder if there is heart damage. She is in her mid fifties, and I don't think she has been to a doctor at all. I am concerned, because she is helping babysit a child.

Is there any risk in kissing a meth addict?
I'm dating a very nice guy who's extremely sweet and caring. The only problem is, about 6 yrs ago, he was addicted to meth BADLY , so much so that his teeth have fallen out since then. He's been completely clean for a little over 3 years, been thru rehab, etc and he's doing great. I do wonder, though, if I'm at any sort of risk when I kiss perform oral sex on him. I've never touched meth or any kind of drug, for that matter , and I don't judge him for something that happened in his past. I just wonder if there's any risk for disease when kissing sharing bodily fluids with someone whose been on the drug even if it was years ago . I mean besides the obvious std risk you run with anybody. I'm saying strictly meth related. Or tooth decay.. can that make you sick?

Is there any way I can help the pregnant meth addict I just met?
Now, I'm not 100 % positive she's a meth addict, because I just met her in passing, but she is pregnant with twins and says she is going to deliver prematurely because she has a partial placental abruption. She seemed really casual about that, and said that her older boys were both premature too. Her teeth had that scary peggy look that drug addicts get, even though she seemed to only be 20 or so. It's really been on my mind, but I can't think of any way I could really do her or her kids any good, given that I don't really know her. Is praying for her my only option?

Question for other recovering meth addicts.?
I've been clean off Crystal Meth for a year and a month. It's still a struggle every day, every time I leave the house I leave my money at home and my first thought is always to buy some dope. It's hard because I could go to about 30 different places and get it, and they re all really close to my house. I don't leave the house much, I basically lock myself inside everyday and if I go anywhere its the same place every time, to my best friends. I've waited and waited and waited for things to get easier, they do get easier but its VERY SLOWLY, the problem is that I feel dead, I basically have no emotions except for anger, I don't care about anything except for staying clean . I don't feel happiness, and if I do it's only for a second and i don't feel it strongly. I'm SO insecure about my personality & how I come across to people, I was never like that before meth. I used to be tha happiest person ever, really bubbly, carefree, I would talk without thinking & joke a lot, and never used to over analyze things like I do now. I hate myself & the person that I am now, I'm always so serious because I can't let go & be free. I need to know when things will be how they were before meth, if they ever will.When will I be the person that I once was...& have you been through things like this?All the people that I know that have done meth are still meth addicts, except for one, he's been clean for almost 6 months & is doing GREAT, he acts like nothing happened & nothing is wrong, it's so much easier for him, I don't know how he does it...

Should I tell my mom my brothers a meth addict?
I have recently learned that my older brother 35, has been smoking meth for the past 2 years.I'm 25 and i always looked up to him so much and to learn this has broken my heart. He's not the person I thought he was.He's bipolar also and blames all his drug symptoms on his mental illness. He treats my mother like a slave. She always gives him money and shes enabling him. He throws tantrums when she cant give him money. My mom works 2 jobs and is very sick. Should I tell her? How do I go about doing this? Shes very touchy about my brother and if we say anything bad about him she gets upset. I fear if I tell her she wont talk to me and ignore me. I love them both but my brother is running my mom into the grave, Please advise me. thank you.
