Crystal Darkness documentary airs in Arizona
Tonight (April 15th) from 6:30 to 7:00 they are showing the documentary ‘Crystal Darkness’ on a wide range of television channels in Arizona (see http://www.silentwitness.org/crystaldarkness/media_sponsors.pdf (pdf) for details of channels). While the documentary is told through the stories of young people that have been through the scary and lonely place that is meth addiction, it is for everyone as our entire society is affected by it. Meth has torn families apart and cost tax payers significant amounts of money. The heart-wrenching tales of these young people are meant to serve as a warning for everyone: Don’t try meth even once.
Gatehouse Academy have contributed two trained counselors for the phone lines associated with the program (out of 100 trained professionals waiting for callers). In addition we are running a publicity campaign coinciding with this airing to give users, and relatives of users somewhere to go to gain more information and help.

Thank goodness that people are getting the word out about how addictive Meth is. I have heard it before that kids don’t know that you can get hooked – seriously hooked after just once. Most people know this about heroin but we need to get the same info out about Meth which is an overwhelming addiction in our country.
