REAL STORIES

Age: 22
Gender: Female
Location: Greeley, Colorado

When I was 14 I went out to a party and there was people smoking meth in a room I hung out in there with someone I knew and when asked to smoke I said no thanks. But with all the smoke I still got high, I didn't sleep the whole night and after "coming down" I decided what the hell I would give it a shot. It was all down hill from there for the next 2 years. I dropped out of school and lost pretty much everything I had. I finally had enough and moved to Illinois and cleaned myself up. When I turned 21 I had my first baby and thought I was strong enough to be back in Colorado, it didn't take very long before I bumped into a old "friend" I got high 3 times and decided I couldn't go down that road again so I told my family the truth and they called social services and told them everything. After only getting high 3 times they took my daughter from me and I am still fighting to get her back after being sober for 3 months.
