About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

When crystal meth is taken by mouth, the effects may last 6 to 8 hours. When it is smoked or injected, the effects can last 10 to 12 hours.
Meth can cause disturbing hallucinations. Users may think that they are seeing or hearing things that are not really there.
In 2006, a survey carried out by the National Survey of drug use and health noted that 5.77% of the US population over twelve years has used meth sometime in their life. The following year, Monitoring The Future carried out a similar survey among high schools which showed that 1.8% of eighth graders, 2.8% of tenth graders, and 3.0% of twelfth graders reported lifetime use of methamphetamine. In 2006, these percentages were 2.7%, 3.2%, and 4.4%, respectively. Women tend to use crystal meth more than they would use cocaine.
Recreational meth use is common at "rave" parties or other social activities to keep the users energy up.
Meth addiction statistics show that it is nearly impossible for a person to be an occasional user of the drug. Once they have tried it they will often continue to abuse meth until they develop a strong psychological and physical addiction to it.
