All right, you know the lie. It's the one you've told yourself every single time. This time will be different. Name the pattern. Look, you tell yourself you'll just do a little, that you'll set boundaries this time, you won't let it get out of hand. And for maybe an hour, you believe it. But what actually happens? The boundary dissolves. Once that meth gets in your system, a little becomes a lot. The voice that said just this once is silent. because the drug is taking over your brain.

That's why chemsex is currently a healthcare epidemic. Tell me in the comments, what's the lie that you keep telling yourself? Say it out loud. That's the first time it's going to lose power.
