Crystal Meth Facts

Dangerous side effects of meth use include an elevated body temperature, skin ulcerations and infections, paranoia, depression, and permanent damage to brain cells.
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. 
Creating meth produces toxic waste! It is estimated that for every 1 pound of meth 5 pounds of toxic waste is created.
As the high from meth wears off users will seek and use more of the drug to recapture the state of pleasure, or to just feel "normal" again. This begins the never-ending cycle of meth use resulting in physical dependence on the drug.
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.
