About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

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. 
Today there are thousands of recipes and information about making meth on the Internet. A small investment of a few hundred dollars in over-the-counter medications and chemicals can produce thousands of dollars worth of this deadly drug.
Just like other stimulants, meth is typically used in a "binge and crash" pattern.
Research on animals over the last 20 years shows that high doses of meth can cause damage to neuron cell-endings. Dopamine and serotonin containing neurons do not die after meth abuse, but their nerve endings ("terminals") are cut back and re-growth appears to be stunted.
The toxic solvents and by-products left behind when creating meth are extremely hazards to our communities when the meth cooks dump them. This is because they can penetrate the ground soil and water for years after they have been discarded.
