About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Users who take meth habitually build a tolerance to the drugs effects. This causes them to take more or even change the method of how they take the drug (i.e. snorting meth to smoking meth to increase their rush).
An overdose of meth gives no immediate signs to users. A meth user may take a lethal dose and not realize that they have just done so until it is too late.
Common chemicals and ingredients that can be used to produce meth include: Acetone, Anhydrous ammonia, Battery acid (sulfuric acid), Brake cleaner (toluene), Cold tablets containing pseudoephedrine, Drain cleaner (sodium hydroxide), Freon, Iodine crystals, Paint thinner, Reactive metals (sodium or lithium), Red phosphorus and Starting fluid (ether).
A recent study (January 2010) in the American Journal of Psychiatry took a look at patients who were suffering long-term Meth psychosis and found no relief with antipsychotic medication but responded rapidly to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT or Shock Treatment).
Signs of meth addiction include the user becoming careless about their appearance and overall physical wellbeing. Often meth addiction will quickly transform a normal looking person into what appears to be a vagrant or homeless person.
