REAL STORIES

Age: 19
Gender: Female

My sister started taking meth at the age of 15. We knew something was wrong when she stopped going to school and would always be up in her room. She would pick her face until it would bleed. Because she didn't have a job, she stole from our family and stole our things to buy drugs. She stole the pain medication the doctor gave me after surgery and sold it. I had never felt so much pain. She started running away and prostituting for meth. She would only come home long enough to steal something else and leave. She is actually on the run now. Every morning, my step-mom goes online and checks the obituaries. It's so sad she has wasted her life like this.
