Dallas Bragg says crystal meth use is less about the drug and more about running from emotional pain. Users are seeking relief and belonging, not just a high. He argues the real work is identifying what you're fleeing from, not just quitting the chemical.
Guys, to understand your crystal meth addiction, you have to know you're not reaching for crystal meth. You're running away from something. It is not the sex. It's the relief from life. It's the need to belong. It's the coping mechanism for emotions you can't handle. So worry less about abstinence from the chemical and more about what you are running from.
