You may have heard that meth causes a person to lose a lot of weight very quickly, which is because it can produce extreme anorexia. Even over a short period of use, meth use can cause drastic changes in how the user looks.
When a person is using meth, parts of their brain become damaged including the areas responsible for memory, judgment, impulse control, and mood states.
Meth users who binge on the drug smoke or inject it and for euphoric rushes which are highly addictive.
When meth is made inside a residence it can render the home uninhabitable. During the process of making meth chemical vapors permeate the walls and carpets of houses and buildings. When meth labs are discovered in private residences it is up to the state and local police to handle the clean-up. Cleaning up meth labs requires specialized training and costs an average of $2,000-$4,000 per site in funds. These expenses are a strain on the state and local polices already tight budgets.
Meth abuse and addiction takes a toll on the user socially, physiologically, economically, and environmentally.
