I am a 24 y/o male. I’ve been overweight my whole life, I’ve smoked a pack per day for six years, and I’ve been using many other drugs for six years. My heaviest use beside nicotine is meth. I used it off and on from early 18 to early 20 often getting strung out and having to move to a relative’s or in a more extreme case, rehab when I was 19.
Although I used other drugs including alcohol, I managed to stay off meth for a little more than two whole years, and started back when I was mid/late 22. It started out quite infrequently, but became a weekly activity soon after I turned 23. I had always enjoyed smoking it, so that was my ROA primarily with the occasional line.
By this point, I had lost all regard for my health and nearly every time I used, I masturbated almost constantly for three days with little food, water, and sleep. Almost every time, I would give myself horrific anxiety attacks, that felt like heart attacks/strokes. I went to the ER many times and my HR was 110-130 each time, and my BP was around 150/100. Despite these gruesome stats, I always figured I would get high just one more time.
I’ve just turned 24 and my use is daily, although I’ve almost completely stopped masturbating. I don’t seem to be losing any fat, in fact I’ve put quite a bit back on(5’10” 200lbs) I’ve recently injected once, and I’ve noticed my health to be progressively declining( shortness of breath, not able to get out of bed when sober, slow onset of paranoid delusion(although not severe like it has been in my younger years)). I know that I have to stop this abuse.
i am about to go to rehab once more because I am certain that I do not want this poison in my life, and I know rehab has been effective before. I simply can no longer handle the drug. Assuming I follow through with this interest in my health, and quit smoking, quit using drugs, eat healthy, and exercise for the rest of my life, how long can I expect to live based on the damage I’ve already done? Thank you to all who can help.
