METH & WHY NOT TO USE IT!

The main drug of choice on the street today is Methamphetamine. Within the past 5 years Meth use has increased in potency and continues to destroy the lives of the user, family and society.

Meth completly destroys your body, makes you think differently, act differently, and it seperates you from your family and friends. If you personally know someone who is using METH try to give them hel and support by taking them to drug programs or telling them about such programs and by not lending them money to get more and most of all do not EVER give up on them no matter how helpless it may seem, theres always a chance to recovery.
