i started snorting meth when i was 19. my regular dosage was the size of a bic pen. then a year later i went on to smoking because snorting became painful i could not take the burning in my nostrils. my weight stayed steady at 180 lbs ( by the way i was 5'9" then) no health problems but actually health benefits see i have rheumatiod arthritis since i was 13 , and i could not take the pain and immobility at times. so with meth consumption i was like wonder woman nothing hurt as long as i had meth in my system . so this became and every day thing consuming any where from a 20 (0.5 grams) - about a teen (1.75 grams) daily depending on my physical activity needs. overall i never lost any weight, have all of my teeth , my hair is long and not brittle, my skin is fair and has now pitting or scars , i still have a good head on my shoulders (smart - carried out a 3.84 gpa @csu fresno state) i have a 3brd 2 bath house i own my car my health is great besides my arthitis and i got a beautiful healthy 5 year old girl my life is not perfect but whose is . i don't plan to stop anytime soon because i need to stay mobile to provide for my daughter. my worry is that of my daughter who will eventually find out but thats okay the question is if she is to try it will she be able to control it as well as i or would i have to become like those mother who tell you can't do this because it is not right who am i to speak that way if i consume it every day for the past 15 years now i am 34 now and i got pregnant with her at the age of 28

I must thank you sincerely Mam!! For once, someone intelligent someone intelligent comes out and sheds some light on the truth!!! All these false ads and propaganda just strengthen the public misconception labeling all users dirty shiesty twacked out bums. When in reality no harm will directly come from a stimulated mind, increased focus, increased energy, and more confidence to get things done. What hurts people is the extreme amounts they do and how long they stay up. Not to mention such extremities done as the normal routine are only characterisitics of people who care about nothing more then drugs. THe people to that degree hang around more shady people and dont ever spend time developing themselves, learning skills, going to school, working. That is why 10 or 20 years down the line they find themselves stuck in the loop they created because After they quit they have nothing to fall back on, a screwed up body, and a belief meth is the cause when in reality their responsible. Like the old folk tale of the Grasshopper that plays all winter mocking the working ants who are building a shelter ends up beggin for help or starving to death because he didnt plan ahead. Addicts play all through their younger years and by the time they are 40 they have gained nothing but a rap sheet, bad friends, bad health illnesses and an ingnorance to knowledge mind frame.
As for your question, I guess you should decide if you wanna talk to her before hand try to instill the same beliefs, or wait at least her first use, so your efforts don't enable her curiosity.
I do not know how you parent, but I would suggest not giving her any reason to hide anything from you, so that way she ll come to you willfingly.
Also just force into her brain that success is the result of ambition, determination, and the ability to adapt. Never take the focus off the future. Have a plan, build her foundation early so she wont regret it in the future. never let anything any drug, habit practice, substance, person's opinion, or anything else stop her from bettering herself or acting against her own morals/ethics.
Im sure you have already got a plan and are a terrific parent I wish you the best, and I thank you for being one of the people who possess a mind, that use a substance, and dont fit the collective belief of the Nation that all people who use a substance in some fashion are automatically turned into junkies or failures. My mindset hasnt changed yet either, and I do not expect it to. This subject i feel passionately about
