Can you distract yourself? Is there something else you like to do? If you've already ingested the meth, how do you intend to cope when it wears off?

If I were you I'd make silly but definite plans. Hot cocoa and moping over a jigsaw puzzle, or water and hiking in the closest nature preserve. Do some concrete thing. Call someone you know and don't tell them what's wrong, but just ask them how they're doing. Go outside and stare at strangers. It can be good for perspective. You should decide what you are going to do next.

I'll sound like a broken record and urge you to seek help. Take control of your life, and live it. Hugs, Devlyn

I'm really bad at this type of thing but I want to let you know I'm here as well for you.

Please stay safe, you are such a beautiful person, and I'm not talking just in looks, you are an inspiration for some of us. *hugs* <-- Wish I could really hug ya right now.

Natalie,

I hope you're doing better. But I thought I should post this link anyway.

Suicide Hotlines--Numbers You Can Call

There are various crisis lines there that you can call. I'd like to add the following to the list.

GLBT National Help Center
    GLBT National Hotline: 1-888-843-4564

San Francisco Night Ministry
    SF Night Ministry Crisis Line: 1-415-441-0123

I can personally vouch for SF Night Ministry. They are non-judgemental, have trans persons on their staff, and can have great crisis line counsellors.

Natalie,

Please let us know you're OK.

Meth is not going to help you, it will only hurt you. Seek help. Please.
We must move forward... not backwards, not to the side, not forwards, but always whirling, whirling, whirling towards freedom.

My mindless babbling are my own opinions and nothing more.

It sounds cliche, but hang in there.  I haven't touched meth in 7 years. Surround yourself with sober people if you can. Weed was definitely something that helped me, but you have to be very careful not to go overboard or just let it replace dealing with your own urges - it's too easy sometimes.

Good luck and keep us posted. Lots of people here care, as you can see.

I did it all back in 85 but then went to a NA meeting and the speaker spoke and well i took up the rest of the meeting and well i kept coming back. I also hng out with people from NA and AA and went to club houses they have. I then went on to build homes for recovering addicts and alcoholics. i did that for 13 yrs.. I can only say that you have to want to live and not be addicted to a simple chemical of the earth. Its kinda so simple when you think about it. Here you are more than one simple chemical. Your a conglomeration of molecules which make organs which makes up you and you are letting one simple chemical control that??? Nooo your not just a simple chemical your a whole lot more and able to defete that simple chemical. Its that simple. They say keep it simple stupid KISS .. well thats how i kept it simple and i even quit smoking cigss etc etc.. so now you know how to look at it.. Your able to look at it because you are a hman and not just a simple chemical... Oh i told all the dealers i might be a narc and so they shouldn't trust me and sell to me .. that kept them away.. i burnt those bridges.. i built new ones to good recovery people who lived life and did so many wonderful things.. you can too .. hey if you need a place out in the country in central pa to come to where you won't find any drugs here your welcome to come stay here.. hugs Danielle

Friends are good and can help you out, but treatment is the best way to achieve your long term goals. Getting clean is going to free you to live a better life. Hugs, Devlyn

Glad to hear that :)

You should definitely be keeping up contact as much as possible with the friends who can help you stay clean.

I saved my last ciggarette which is now many many yrs old when i quit. However, its not illegal. You could be in for some bad trouble if you kept it.. I would toss it in the toilet and call it a donation to your future and please tell as many peopls as possible but they should be people in NA who you can trust and not make you feel less than them because they are close friends and they will see you as a user..

Might I know why on earth you have some next to you and it's still not in the toilet bowl? You're playing with fire.
