Why do meth
addicts lose everything?
and why do meth addicts lose all
their belongings? do they just not pay their bills?
my ex lost: his house to the IRS! crashed his car! lost
his money tons of it (gambled).
how can someone who made lots of money get reduced to
nothing because he used meth? would being on meth make
you not pay taxes?
does meth use make you not pay your bills? ignore
responsibility so you lose everything?
and why was he SO insistent on not "growing up"? he said
he WOULD NOT GROW UP! be more responsible but not grow
up.
don't they feel like garbage after losing all that?

Re: Why do meth

So "they" can buy more meth, and not
work, and stay up for days or weeks.
To an addict *nothing* is more important than....more
meth.
And like the song says, "There's a hole in Daddy's arm
where all the money goes"... along with anything else
that resembles material equity.
Of course "they" feel like garbage, meth IS garbage, and
garbage we become...in our minds. Ooops..."their" minds.

Re: Why do meth

lynne, are you starting to detach
yet???? I think you are.
Have you gotten that feeling yet that you were sleeping
with yucky sicky garbage? When that reality sinks in
just a little bit more, the soul ties seem to break a
little more.
You are worth loving and thinking about. Try asking
yourself why...about something about yourself for just a
minute-it helps to distract.
Then, think of what you DO have with the meth monster
outa yer life-it helps
Oh, and it's a great thing when they lose every last
"thing" because that means that they are that much
closer to recovery and even when we "hate" em, it's best
for the world for them to find recovery.

Re: Why do meth

The problem for some of us is that
them losing everything makes us (their family) lose as
well. We were a hard-working, two income family of four.
Now I am left to try to pay for everything while he is
off who knows where. In time, I will lose everything
too. That is what makes me so angry. My children and I
are doing all that we can do hold on to what we have and
we ultimately will lose it all. That is very
frustrating. |

I've known a certain meth addict who
steals from himself or others so he can have something
important for his mind and body to do and be the hero
and find the things....sometimes even get a reward...ooohhhh
then he deserves some more dope cause that's what made
him so powerful and smart to find or recover what was
lost or stolen....and the beat goes on
ever watched a silly dog chase it's tail?

That is one of the reason's why it is
sometimes better to separate from the addict until they
get into recovery. I know for me, my kids won't ever do
without so either of us can get high again. I would take
them from my husband - he would take them from me. Why
should they have to pay the price because we "love" each
other?
As to the question of why addicts lose everything -
It's because they are addicts. Nothing is as important
as meth. As long as they are getting or trying to get
high, everything else comes in second place. I'm sorry,
but that's the truth.

Re: Why do meth

We lose everything because meth is
more important to us. I just sold a complete (expensive)
stereo deck just to get a gram. I've only used once and
I already worry that I might be stuck like chuck.
