In this first‑person account, the speaker describes their recovery journey from methamphetamine (referred to as “Tina”). They have been sober from Tina since August and, as of February, have maintained that sobriety. Initially, any attempt to drink alcohol quickly triggered a relapse: after just two drinks, a mental shift prompted them to call a dealer and use a gram of Tina, restarting the cycle. Over time, the speaker learned they can now consume three pints of alcohol without it prompting a meth use episode; instead, the alcohol simply makes them sleepy. The narrative highlights the interplay between alcohol and meth cravings, the specific trigger mechanism, and the current stable state where alcohol no longer serves as a relapse cue.
