Have you ever been evaluated for adhd? I know a few meth addicts who were self medicating and once they were treated for the adhd they were able to give up the meth. I also work with drug addicts and alcoholics and there are a few former meth addicts that experience the extreme lack of focus for a long time after they have stopped using. My theory is your body is still healing itself from the extreme physical effects from the meth.
