Meth users who have become addicted to the drug will experience violent behavior, anxiety, confusion, insomnia, and psychotic features, including paranoia, aggression, visual and auditory hallucinations, mood disturbances, and delusions.
A meth users mental state of mind often changes quickly. Addicts who abuse this drug habitually may show signs similar to schizophrenics and people with obsessive compulsive disorders.
Scientists have estimated that as much as 50% of the dopamine-producing cells in the users brain are damaged after they use meth for a prolonged period of time. The same study found that serotonin-containing nerve cells may be damaged even more extensively than their dopamine-producing cells.
Children who grow up in or near meth labs are in danger of suffering child neglect, acid burns and respiratory problems from exposure to toxic chemicals.
There are been reports of meth users eating or chewing the drug. Users will put the meth on paper or food or even chew it in their mouth.
