About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Some meth addicts feel the sensation of bugs crawling under their skin. Doctors have labeled this formication but meth users typically call it crank bugs.
When a person continues to take meth it destroys their ability to experience pleasure naturally without being on drugs.
Females often take crystal meth because it can cause extremely rapid weight loss. However, the effects are short term. The body builds up a tolerance to the drug so weight loss tapers off and stops around six weeks after taking the drug. Also, weight that is lost is regained once a person stops taking methamphetamine. For these reasons, combined with how addictive the drug is, methamphetamine tends not to be prescribed by doctors for weight loss. 
Meth users who take the drug intravenously may suffer AIDS, hepatitis, infections and sores at the injection site, and infection of the heart lining and valves (endocarditis).
Recreational meth use is common at "rave" parties or other social activities to keep the users energy up.
