About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Addiction treatment professionals have found that meth abusers do not necessarily need specialized treatment to conquer their addiction. However, they do need more time in intensive outpatient or residential drug treatment programs than they would normally receive.
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.
High-intensity amphetamine users became known as "speed freaks" and would typically inject amphetamine for days, until they became overcome by fatigue or psychosis.
Crystal meth, produced on the streets, is a more toxic form of pure meth and it has a blue color, glass like appearance. In medicine, it comes as a prescription drug in the tablet form, Desoxyn. It is far more addictive than the powered meth, thus crystal meth addiction is the most prominent form of the meth addiction.
Methamphetamine is a very addictive stimulant. Users often abuse this drug repeatedly over a short period of time and find that they become psychologically addicted to the rush they experience.
