Similar to cocaine, meth is a powerful "upper" that produces alertness and elation, along with a variety of adverse reactions.
When a meth user initially takes the drug they feel very energetic and stimulated because their brain is working at its maximum efficiency. Meth actually makes the users feel better than ever and provides increased energy, increased sexuality, and a decreased need for food and sleep. However, their brain begins to combat the effects of the drug. It becomes tired and depleted of all the things that it needs to feel normal.
When a person takes meth it increases the levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine. This stimulates brain cells, enhancing mood and body movement.
Meth is known to be a very aggressive drug. Users become violent and lose their ability to control their impulsive, irrational behavior.
Meth labs have been found in a variety of places including: garages, kitchens, vehicles, hotel and motel rooms, storage lockers, campgrounds, abandoned dumps, restrooms, and mobile homes.
