I use to snort meth for a period of 7 months.. It's now been 6 weeks clean, my face and body are recovering buy my mental state I'm unsure. Some days I feel great other days I feel depressed, sad , numb .. I can't relate to feelings like love or happiness, I still can hold conversations and laugh or smile .. Lately I've been feeling very tired when I get home from work, like I have to constantly take naps, then a few hours later I'm tired again .. When I sleep I never sleep a full 8 hours .. I wake up every few hours sometimes 2 to 6 times a night

I push myself in the gym at school and work I feel mentally drained , sometimes I feel I'm having conversations with God or dead Realitives .. Sometimes I feel I have a negative energy or bad spirit feeding off me clinging to me, two people on seperate occasions claim they have seen it .. Idk all I do is pray and try to stay positive , is this from the drug use? Will it go away ? Or have I fucked myself up physically or mentally ?


I'm 27 going on 28 , I have Zoloft and celexia but don't take them , should I or should I just tough it out ? Any body who's been down this road or can relate any information is appreciated thank you .. Oh yeah I also stopped smoking weed around the same time so I'm withdrawing from both drugs
 
Jeffc19 - I don't have experience with meth, but I know when I got clean in 2010 I went for a few months where I thought I was clinically insane. I couldn't even really hold conversations, my memory was non-existent, my perceptions were totally skewed, and I didn't feel like I was in reality. I want to say that what you're feeling is normal, especially with emotions being all over the place and not sleeping very well. You may want to try time release melatonin as it may help you sleep through the night, which will help stabilize you.
You should begin to see improvement in your symptoms soon, it does take time for the brain to heal and restore its natural neurochemical balance. Meth is a hell of a drug, and I know from people I met in rehab it takes a while to recover from. If you find symptoms are not getting better or they are getting worse speak to a doctor. Good luck!
