About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

It has been reported that quite a few crystal meth users develop an obsessive compulsive disorder for being clean and tidy. Some also acquire an intense sexual drive that results in sexual acts that can last hours, and sometimes days after ingesting crystal meth.
Current statistics show that in California, meth is the primary drug problem reported to publicly monitored treatment providers in the state. Meth addiction has now surpassed alcohol and heroin as the primary drug addicts are enrolling in treatment for.
Crystal Meth can be smoked, snorted, taken orally, or injected. Depending on how it is taken, the drug can alter mood differently.
Amphetamines similar to meth first came to America in the 1930s. Abuse of amphetamine sulfate (Benzedrine) and dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine) pills became prevalent during the 50s and 60s. These simulant medications were commonly prescribed by physicians, primarily for weight loss at which point they begin to be diverted to the illicit market.
When a person takes an overdose of meth they will have a high temperature, kidney failure and cardiovascular collapse. All of these symptoms will take place very quickly.
