In short no I don't think so. I personally believe it takes someone with incredible discipline not to let ice mess up their life.
I was introduced to it about 6 months ago. Within one month I had moved in with an addict where the drug was on tap. I was sleeping but not a lot, always tired and falling asleep at my desk, pretty much just hating life. I tried to stop using cold turkey and would secretly use whilst telling my friends how great I was doing. Two months later I lost my job.
I realised I was using the drug (daily) in a really negative way. Felt sad - had some, felt angry - had some. I was relying on it to numb the reality of other emotions I was feeling... The same way some people use alcohol I suppose. This was an epiphany to me.
I decided to make some rules for myself but nothing too restrictive. Firstly I have a few close friends that know I use it but they don't themselves. I use around them when I want to - removing the stigma of my "dirty secret" made me desire it less! I also have promised to tell them if I ever feel like I'm losing control and I stand by this. Secondly I make sure I always sleep / have time to recover if I decide to go on a bit of a bender (I love nothing more than staying awake when everyone else is asleep and I do productive/enjoyable things like online courses, researching, learning, writing, watching documentaries or sometimes just relaxing to music). Thirdly and most importantly I do not allow myself to use when I am sad/lonely/upset or engage in any compulsive/negative behaviours like skin picking or focusing on anything that makes me unhappy.
I have gone from daily use to... well I don't know to be frank. I just use when I want to which results in me getting through about 1gram every 4-5 weeks. I started my own business which is doing well, I have pets I look after, I exercise, eat well, maintain good relationships and a social life with my friends and to be honest I'm probably the happiest I've been in years.
I don't feel like I'm fighting a battle or that ice controls me anymore. I always have some at home but tend to forget about it haha. I guess I view it the same way as a bottle of wine in my fridge if that makes sense?! I pretty much just use on weekends around other friends who are also getting high but on other drugs and on occasion I'll stay up all night and enjoy the high whilst doing something creative / productive.
However... my lifestyle (ie working for myself) allows me to use as and when I want and also means I can recover if I need the extra sleep. I think if you had a 9-5 job it would be really difficult to maintain any hard drug use. And if you made it into work every day you wouldn't be performing at a very high standard.
