I was a tweaker until I made the mistake of dropping acid and doing crank at the same time. I had a severely bad trip that repeated itself every time I snorted speed. God is good.
What folks don't understand is that this chemical garbage that is destroying people is not true meth. Over the years, as the government has clamped down on the available ingredients, cooks have sought out substitutes. Every time johnny law make a chemical ingredient unavailable, the fucking cooks go find something that is just that much nastier. What we have ended up with is drug that is made from the most toxic crap on the planet.
Amphetemines were widely prescribed for decades in the US, and not just for weight loss. Feeling run down? Here, take these and get back to work... I would bet that the vast majority of our infrastructure was built by speed freaks. How the hell do you think our granddaddies worked 16 hours days? The reason they are not widely prescribed now is because of the risk of blowing out heart valves. Yeah, good strategy there. Tweakers are freaking imploding in a matter of a couple years of use because they are snorting and smoking BATTERY ACID!!! This is the true legacy of drug prohibition.
Oh and Fdd, all that shit (splattered) you thought was really real? It was smoke and mirrors. Chemically induced manic events. I saw the same kind of crap and it wasn't until I read up on manic depression that I understood what was happening. You can count yourself blessed to be alive and out of the shit storm!
5 Reasons I hate tweakers:
1. The only people that can be awake for three days and still not have enough time to show up for work on time.
2. Two letters: B and O.
3. Will disassemble everything you own if when you are not looking, but just are not motivated to put it back together again
4. Only hear every third word you say and 50 that you didn't.
5. Will get mad at you for YOUR voice being in THEIR head.
