No: You need treatment with a psychiatrist, counseling, and probably a support group as well. Substance abuse is only going to worsen things over time. The fact you asked the question means you can get better.

If YOU think so: If you believe you're too damaged to help, then you will repel efforts to help you. You've taken the time to ask about this here, though, so maybe there's a grain of possibility in your mind. For sure, meth can kill you -- either fast or slow. Nightmares can be tormenting, and meth can aggravate them. Psychiatrists & addiction medicine docs can help with these problems. Please get help now!
