About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

You may have heard that meth causes a person to lose a lot of weight very quickly, which is because it can produce extreme anorexia. Even over a short period of use, meth use can cause drastic changes in how the user looks.
The use of crystal methamphetamine can produce a series of undesirable behavioral patterns such as psychosis and aggressive behavior. Other physiological problems associated with crystal meth are increase blood pressure and heart rate, hyperthermia, convulsion and death.
Some of the solvents used in the crystal meth manufacturing process are known to pose long term hazard to the environment due to their persistence in soil and water for years.
Meth users who take the drug in high-doses or long binges are susceptible to stimulant psychosis. If this happens the psychotic user may feel intensely paranoid, hear voices, and experience bizarre delusions. They may feel that other people are talking about them or following them.
Crystal can be in the body anywhere from 2-20 hours. However, after users start to come off the drug or "crash" they become emotionally instable and highly irritable. This can be extremely dangerous for those that suffer from depression who naturally have a difficult time regulating their moods. The drug also causes heart palpitations, blurred vision, extended wakefulness, and damage to the brain, lungs and liver. The ultimate side effect is death from overdose.
