About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Meth use causes changes in the users brain. Researchers have found that the areas of the users brain most affected by meth are the areas that control memory, emotion and reward.
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. 
Crystal Meth is a central nervous system stimulant and is very, very addictive. Nearly half of first time crystal meth users and more than 3/4 of second time crystal meth users report addiction-like cravings. 
Meth addiction can cost the addict and society. In 2005 the cost of foster care for children from a meth-related placement averaged $3,859,836 (183x$21,092).
A meth user who is tweaking may not have slept in three to fifteen days and is often irritable and paranoid. Use extreme caution if the tweaker is also using alcohol or other drugs as the danger may be intensified.
