From planning to end her own life as a result of drugs to celebrating her GED diploma, Jamee Valet has completely turned her life around. Now, she is bravely sharing the “before and after” photos that chronicle her life as a recovering meth addict.Valet, of Sweet Home, Oregon, posted before pictures on a public Facebook page called The Addict’s Diary.
