Yeah, Meth is definately a "More-ish" kinda substance indeed. Though it in no doubt has fucked up alot of people's lives, some maybe robbed of intellect after it's use, or others too caught "in the scene" to really even notice it's fucking with them yet.
But, I have to say. I live in Melbourne, Australia... and down here, it doesn't sound like we have nearly as much trouble as what the States does. Sure... there was a slight epidemic that influxed Melbourne for a few months, but there appears to be a slight drought as of late... and alot of people I have come to know, just forget about the fact that they can't tweak for now and move on.
A have met on numerous occasion, individuals that claim they have had their "bad streak" and going on over a month binge, but this appears to only be really short term (1 month) and after this they realise their usage is getting way too outta-hand and I guess... quit while they're ahead.
And... I seriously have to say this... Methamphetamine, no... NO DRUG IS EVIL!! It is toally not possible for a drug to have pure intentions of making the decision to be evil to you or your life in any way. You are the one to make the decision, whether it be good... or bad.
