Hi, my name is Josh and I am an addict. A meth addict to be exact. I just launched a site called AndIAmAnAddict.com I know I am not unique. I share similar experiences, hardships, and hope with other addicts. So then why am I making this site? The answer is two fold. First and foremost, it’s a way for me to put my recovery into something tangible. A time capsule of my journey so to speak — allowing me the opportunity to see where I was, where I am, and where I’m going. After all, this is a journey, not a destination. The second, if in someway the site helps just one person — then that’s more than I could have hoped for

Obviously, I would love my experience to help more than one person. Like many of us, I future trip. I have a vision of what I want this site to be and genuinely would love to see it come to fruition. However, if it doesn’t, that’s OK. After all, personal recovery comes first. It’s only then can we truly help those who still suffer.

I should warn you, I am not a writer. I have horrible grammar skills. My sentence structure will almost always be wrong. If that bothers you, I don’t know what to say. Except, keep coming back, maybe it will get better…

My intentions of using drugs is never meant to hurt anyone but me. I don’t think about them when using. That sounds harsh but its the truth. When using, I have one thing on my mind. Getting high. My family is collateral damage.

Today, I choose to believe my recovery is not a coincidence. I don’t know why I am still here, but someone or something wants me to be. I am committed to figuring out why.

That's pretty awesome man! I checked it out and will try and follow along. You seem like a decent writer anyway so I'm sure people will look at it. We have a Blogs sub forum if you would like to create one to insert your content and talk about your site, you are welcome to do that.
 
I checked the blog section and don’t have privileges to post there, I guess since I am new. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll just keep an eye out for when I can. All the best!

Hey! Since you are a staff member, can I ask you a question? What are the requirements to be able to post in the blog forum? I still do not have sufficent rights. I was curious if it's an account age issue or how active you are on the site?
 
Its likely activity level, if you look below your user name it says "Greenlighter" this just means some sections are off limits until you post enough times, which I think is 50 but I might be wrong

Also welcome to the site! There are many places where you can post right now including the Other Drugs forum which covers methamphetamine and other stimulants

Yes, I guess there's now a Bluelighter requirement for seeing and posting in Blogs. It was 25 posts at one point, but may be more or less now, not sure. If you don't feel like waiting for the posting requirements, you can message an administrator to manually change your role. Here's all of our staff but just message any admin

Hey I am also a meth addict I was first on it for 2 years and then sober for 6 years. Then met a guy last Sunday who’s a dealer, and when I found out I didn’t even hesitate to buy meth. Went home and took my first hit of meth in 6 years. That hit brought back everything I loved about meth and over the last few days I’ve gotten hardcore addicted to it way more then I was 6 years ago. I’ve smoked so much meth since Sunday night it’s crazy and I haven’t slept since Sunday morning. When I used 6 years ago I would have my high on my mind but was able to think about other things too. Since Sunday night I literally only care about getting high now that’s all I think about is staying high so I don’t lose this high I love. I’ve pretty much completely given myself to my meth addiction this time and I don’t want to stop as messed up as it is this is who I am now and I’m going to keep going and using everyday. I literally have barely put my pipe down in the last few days. I hope this is making sense I’m like crazy high right now.
