Prue's story

In this short film a former methamphetamine user describes how she became addicted to the drug and the terrible effects that this had on her life. The film appeared on the DrugHelp website (https://drughelp.org.nz), which was produced by the New Zealand Drug Foundation. There have been a number of organisations, both public and private, which have done outstanding work in New Zealand to assist drug users to break their habit and reconstruct their lives.
