These Before And After Photos Of Drug Users Will Shock You To Your Core

When I was young, I first started hearing about hard drugs like meth and heroin. “Not even once,” was the slogan we saw everywhere. I stayed away, but I guess I was lucky. That slogan wasn’t enough for some people, young and old alike. It’s a sad reality.

Reading about how meth changed you, or how heroin held you in its addictive clutches and never let go didn’t stop many. That’s the brutal nature of drugs. These photos show what we all should have seen. From their first arrest to their most recent, it’s clear that body and mind were destroyed by these drugs.
