Hi everyone, this is only my second post on bluelight, but the topic of meth addiction is the what I am most interested in.
I started using shabu (this is what it's called here in Jakarta) about 2 years ago. We smoke it through a water bong that we make using a plastic bottle. I'm not sure if the strength/potency of the product we get here is the same as in other parts of the world. I only use it with my gf and a close circle of friends, and to the most part we limit our sessions to weekends. 0.5g will get 3 of us comfortably from Friday night to Saturday night, at which point I force myself to eat, shower, take some vitamins and get some rest. Sunday I sleep in until the afternoon and by Monday I'm good to go. Sometimes we buy 1g, or buy another 0.5g on Saturday, meaning I don't get much sleep or food over the weekend but am generally ok to work on Monday, albeit a bit tired.
I like the drug because it allows me to work. I'm building a new business and when i'm on meth the creative ideas flow like water. I can put together good quality and detailed presentations, forecasts, budgets and proposals over the weekend.
I don't consider myself a heavy addict and because I generally only use with other people where we check ourselves, our usage doesn't seem to be getting too out of control. Very occasionally my gf and I might buy a little baggie during the week, but we have succeeded in keeping this to mostly a weekend activity, for now.
From what I've read, my experiences seem quite similar to many other users out there. At first it's great, the euphoria, energy, alertness, sex, and creativity is addictive.. but it spirals out of control and downwards from there on. After 2 years of taking the drug.. I'm still enjoying it without it really negatively affecting my health, wallet, relationships or career.
Wondering are there users out there who have managed to balance regular meth use with a normal life, without it wreaking havoc on their lives? Or is it inevitable that if i continue the way I am things will start falling apart?
