According to the 2007 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, about 529,000 Americans use methamphetamines, a significant chunk of the 20 million people ages 12 and over who take illicit drugs. About 5% of high school seniors have used crystal meth -- also called "crank," "tweak," "ice" or "glass," among other names -- at least once.
Drug users began injecting amphetamines similar to meth during the 60s in order to achieve a more intense "high."
After using ice crystal meth over a period of time, dopamine becomes depleted and meth addiction patients develop Parkinson like symptoms. Moreover the use of cocaine produce euphoria up to about 20 minutes, compared to ice crystal meth which produce euphoria for more than 12 hours.
Some people take meth because of the long-lasting high that it gives. Methamphetamine causes numerous neurotransmitters to be released in the brain, producing a sense of euphoria that may last as long as 12 hours, depending on how the drug was taken.
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.
