METH


The Gay and Lesbian Film Festival of Tampa has been my salvation this week... I saw an amazing documentary on tuesday on how Cristal Meth is affecting the gay community METH

The interesting part of the experience was when at the end of the projection one of the recovering addicts, Mark, comes up on the stage and starts his q&a session by saying that during the entire movie he was completely high. During the film he kept praising the fact he had been clean for 11 months. This is what addiction is. Justifications. Manipulation and denial. He's again in the process of recovering in a half way house in Ft Laud. Attending every single AA or NA meeting available. Very powerful evening.
