I have 2 long time (former) friends on meth, one was a talented plumber and the other a super talented carpenter. Both are pathetic examples of a human being now, don't can't work at all, and barely leave their homes, even before the pandemic. Both are super un-trustworthy now, and both have ripped me off. No contact with either now.
Then I have another who's a full blown heroin addict / alcoholic, and he's a little younger, in his late 40's. Works every day as a roofer in summer and painter in winter, but has absolutely nothing, no car, rags for clothes, etc. I saw him a few weeks ago and couldn't believe how thin he is...He still has his integrity, at least with me...Maybe as I'm his one friend who could/would help him in a pinch. I've been trying to talk him into going to a methadone clinic, but he doesn't want to give up his vodka.
