How I did it: It's a very very hard and difficult journey to quit. All along my bumpy ride, I had been talking to this guy who wasn't telling me to stop anything. He was just being my friend. We finally met one day & hung out a lot more frequently. In September of 2008 he asked me to be his girlfriend (officially), but the catch was that I had to stop using. I continued behind his back for several months, honestly trying to stop, but seriously the psychological effects of this drug are terrible. It's so hard to stop. I finally did and even though I still think about it regularly, I will never do it again and keep myself away from everyone I used to know who still does it. I am still with this guy & we are to be married Sept '12. :)

Lessons & tips: You can't quit cold turkey unless your mind is stronger than the drug. Which chances are, if you're in a situation where you are trying to quit, then your mind is not strong. Mine wasn't either. Just keep trying not to do it as much and tell yourself you are better than that.
