Hi all. I have read many of your posts and I cannot tell you how much I have learned. I have a dear dear friend, who I consider a sister has been sucked into the world of meth. It was gradual at first and then, boom! it went bad very quickly.
We grew up together, both of us not having a stable family leaned on each other for support and love for decades. About 2 years ago, she started using meth, I knew what it was, but I didn't KNOW what it was, if that makes sense. I'd heard of it, and thought she was probably experimenting and would be ok. I had no idea.
The phone calls became more scarce and thought she was busy, etc. Then when we would talk, she would be high or smoking it. Needless to say, the phone calls became more and more strange. She is a flight attendant and would come and visit every so often- which I loved because I had moved so far away. One time she came to visit and I was so shocked. SHe had lost so much weight and she just looked awful. I kept it together for those few hours, but when I left, tears were running down my face. I didn't even know who she was anymore, yet it hadn't even been that long.
We stayed in touch still, but again, it became less and less. WHat used to be once a week or more had now dwindled to 1 every other month, if I was lucky. I got engaged in Oct of 2005 and called her, she did call back with a very odd message about coming to visit and that she was sorry she didn't let me know in advance.?? Anyway, it didn't make a lot of sense.
I called her back the next day and got her voicemail. I left a message saying that I didn't understand her message and I'd love to talk to her. She never called back. I have called and called and called. And nothing. She has only a cell phone for work, and it will just go directly to voicemail no matter what time I call. The phone is through work, so I am woried that she doesn't answer, but thankful that the number at least still works.
We no longer have mutual friends, as over the past 2 years, she started hanging around a new group of people. I have no way of finding her. I am just so worried. She doesn't have a family, and I know she is surrounded by other addicts. I just don't know what to do.
Is this common for meth addicts to just fall off the face of the earth?? Or is there something else I should be concerned about?? I am just so worried, it has now been 8 months with NO contact. I just don't know what to do.
Any thoughts?? thanks so much!
