About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

A meth users mental state of mind often changes quickly. Addicts who abuse this drug habitually may show signs similar to schizophrenics and people with obsessive compulsive disorders.
Red P is a common meth cooking method using red phosphorus. Red phosphorus is found in safety matches, flares and smoke bombs.
Long-term effects of Crystal Meth use can include brain damage (similar to the effects of Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease), coma, stroke or death. Chronic users may also develop distinct physical symptoms, as demonstrated by before and after pictures in the Faces of MethTM program. Signs of chronic use include weight loss, tooth decay and cracked teeth (“Meth Mouth”), psychosis and hallucinations, sores on the body from picking at skin, and formication (an abnormal skin sensation akin to "bugs crawling on skin"). 
Meth withdrawal may include: irritability, depression, fearfulness, loss of energy, and extreme craving for the drug.
When a meth user comes down from a binge on the drug they will experience depression, paranoia and aggression. These mood disturbances, strange thoughts and odd behavior may last for days, weeks or even longer depending on how out of touch with reality the drug user has become during their meth binge.
