Hey, there. My name is Bree and I’m a drug addict. I’m 17 years old. My drug of choice is Meth. My story on how I got started is kinda long so here’s a summary of it all.
My addiction started around the time I was 15. I started using because my mom and dad got divorce when my mom told my dad he wanted a divorce he flipped out and threaten to kill her. Little did he know doing that would cause him not to see me for nearly a whole year. Not being able to see my dad was terrible. Me and my mom we’ve never gotten along she’s always treated me like a outcast like I didn’t belong. She always told me I was worthless and wasn’t going to make at anywhere in life. Which after a while I started to believe so I gave up everything. I started drinking and smoking pot, which lead to painkillers, cigarettes, cutting, and some pretty hardcore drugs. Right before I turned 16 I got to see my dad again but something was different about him. He started using drugs as an escape too. Me and him started smoking pot and drinking together. That didn’t help anything at all, especially when my mom kicked me out and sent me to live with him. When my mom did that I started selling and doing whatever I could to get dope. I was a full blown addict by 16.
I couldn’t give at up. I have overdosed more than 5 times. I am beyond lucky to even be alive. I thank God everyday that I am. Now I’m 2 months clean and I’ve only slipped up once.
