okay so the state i lived in and did drugs in, had less meth lab incidents but more cocaine, and marijuana seized. its funny that the mdma is so low cause i know there’s ecstasy around there somewhere! this is ridiculous the two things i abused the most of course texas has the most of it! jesus. so disturbing. if i ever move back to texas, so be it. i will never, NEVER, allow my kids to grow up there. i will not put them through the same bullshit i had to deal with. i wasnt mature enough to see it. i am now. i cant believe my sister could even look at me. my parents even stood out with me! i was an immature, selfish, stuck up, plano kid. yup. i thought the world revolved around me. that i could just drive home drunk and there would be no consequences. that i was untouchable. well guess what im not! and i couldnt take the shit that was presented to me. so i turned to bulimia. yuck. never again.
