My name is Justin I am 29 years old and a recovering Methamphetamine addict I first tried Meth when I was 14 yrs. old with my best friend and his mom both of whom told me not to worry it won't do anything. Well they couldn't have been more wrong for the next ten years I(and my family)struggled with an overwhelming addiction that hurt not only me but everyone who truly cared for me,I would do anything to get it, selling my parents stuff, stealing money from them,stealing from stores,ripping people off you name it I probably did it or came real close. So now 5 yrs off of a debilitating addiction I've decided to share my saving grace with all of you, CANNABIS saved my life, turned me into a productive member of society and saved the relationship I now have with my family. I now use Cannabis in my daily life not to get stoned(except at night before bed) but to self medicate for my ADHD as well as treating my addiction to Meth. Cannabis truly is a gift from god without it I would be dead or in prison. I really think there should be a place were truly addicted people could go to be treated for there hard drug addiction with Cannabis what do you guys think?
