There are several reasons why a person will try meth. Athletes and students may try meth because of the initial heightened physical and mental performance the drug produces.
Many girls and women are deceived by meth in thinking it is a quick way to lose weight. Their meth use causes them to go past the point of looking normal into an appearance of looking too thin or has a sunken face. It is not uncommon for meth addicts to look like skin and bones.
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.
Signs of a meth overdose include hyperthermia and convulsions. If these symptoms are left untreated they can result in death for the user.
When a person is using meth, parts of their brain become damaged including the areas responsible for memory, judgment, impulse control, and mood states.
