How do you steal drugs?
Can any of you shed some
light on this issue possible. I have caught my husband in the
past using Meth and prescription drugs. He tells me he wants a
sober life in 2007 and has this big confession to make to me
about what he has been doing and how much etc. When we begin to
discuss he always clams up and won't continue, one thing he
continually says when I say I can't believe you waste our money
etc. on that crap, he says "I am stealing the sh-- anyway". How do
you steal drugs, do you think he means he gets it from others
and then takes some of there share? I am so confused and hurt. |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
That's pretty common
actually.
Most of the time when someone goes and gets a bag of dope for
someone else, they will " pinch" the bag. That means, they will
take some out for themselves before delivering it.
( used to piss me off )
He clams up ( in my opinion ) cause there really is no
explanation for his actions. Its uncomfortable to admit and talk
about how you are beat down with addiction.
If he wants to get clean..... support him. If not......
Good luck to you |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
Yeah, the people who get
dope for other people always pinch some for themselves. It's a
common practice, and even the people who are buying it know that
some will be pinched by the middle man.
I can't imagine he's doing much if that's the only way he's
getting it.
Another thing he might be doing is hanging around a cooker, or
someone who is actually making the dope in a bathtub somewhere.
Then he would have access to large quantities. It's a dangerous
thing to do, however, because those people are in it for the
profit and if he's skimming off the top, he's cutting into their
profit.
I hope he finds his way to a sober life. Have you thought about
having him come here to talk to some of us who have been there,
done that, and found a way out?
You might suggest a meeting, such as NA, or any of the other
programs out there. There are people willing to help those who
are willing to accept help. |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
It's been my experience
that when I first started to use meth, I found myself "pinching"
as others have said. But as the years went by and my use became
greater and my involvement became deeper, I would steal from my
suppliers in many many different ways. So I guess his level of
stealing depends on the length and severity of his addiction.
Remember, Meth dulls emotions especially if mixed with scripts.
My prayer for you is compassion and peace within through this
"season". My prayer for him is that God grant him a moment of
clarity and he gets the help he needs. |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
Yes, meth can be stolen.
Keep in mind I'm not proud of stealing it and that I knew very
well the person I stole it from (meaning I knew my safety wasn't
in danger from him). He'd fall asleep and I'd swipe some from
his baggie every time I could. If he came over 2 times in one
day, I swiped twice. I'd steal when he wasn't with his stash or
when he wasn't looking. Again, I am not proud of this at all.
My original intent was to steal enough to make him *think* he
used more than he did...maybe if he got scared at how quick the
bag got empty, he'd quit. Wrong. Then when he started selling-it
was easier to steal. I'm sure he was pissed when he'd weigh it
later if he knew what he had originally. He never connected the
dots though. |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
You all are so kind, I always
feel better when I read your replies and know that my husband is
not alone, there are many of you that have experienced what he
is experiencing, I just wish he would realize that. He acts as
if "his" addiction is so much worse then anyone else's and that
he cannot quit. I pray for him and all of you struggling. I am
still confused about the stealing, I feel he purchases Meth and
steals pain pills somehow. I can't make myself believe he is in
some kind of manufacturing ring or selling, but I couldn't
believe he was doing the drug either. He says I have no idea
what he is doing or how he gets the drugs he gets and when he is
ready he will tell me. My girlfriend tells me that is just
another way that the addict keeps the control in order for
me to stay confused. I have found his meth, caught him doing it,
so I don't know why he continues to tell me I don't know what he
is into and he wants to tell me but can't. I have a feeling it
is just much worse then I assume it is and that is what I will
hear one day. Once again, my deepest prayers are with you all. |

Re: How do you steal drugs?
that was my main source
of feeding my habit...i had a whole network of people that
couldn't get it from anywhere else other than me...i used to rip
off half their deals but i knew they had no where else to go ...
i was using at least a gram a day every day and sometimes i
wouldn't even buy any in a day...
as all the others have already said it is very common for people
to be ripping each other off... |
