^Please find me sources other than that show which was made for TV rating$. The whole "one hit and you're hooked" shit is BS if you ask me, I know MANY people that have tried meth and never used again, and people who are able to use it with moderation and have it not affect their lives negatively.
HOWEVER, I totally agree that methamphetamine should never be tried by those who haven't. Tons of people say the famous last words, "I'll only try it once/weekends/I'll never smoke it, shoot it, etc" and for a damned good reason. Without getting into any number figures, I think ALL of us who have done methamphetamine can agree that at the very least, you never forget that first high. You never forget that feeling. Whether you can overcome the calls to crystal, or not, you never forget that feeling. Just something to think about... While I can use methamphetamine extremely infrequently and responsibly, many cannot, and I would implore all people contemplating trying it to ask yourself this.
"If I try it, and it's as amazing as everyone says it is, which will I be? The person who tries it once and quits? the person who starts to use it, but only every so often? or, will you fall head over heals and spiral down and down in what feels like a never ending hell. Because there are many possible outcomes, after you get your first taste.
And if the base of your logic is, "oh, I don't have an addictive personality, I quit XXXX drug just fine". DO NOT PROCEED. THOSE ARE PROBABLY THE MOST FAMOUS LAST WORDS
