About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Crystal meth highs tend to last 4-8 hours with users cycling the drug for days. Crystal users often stay awake for days on end, eating very little and staying in a heightened state of arousal that is very stressful for the body and brain. 
The T.V. series Breaking Bad is about a chemistry teacher who cooks meth. He justifies his actions because he is dying of lung cancer and financially bankrupt.
Because meth is so easy to create it has become a major problem in rural America with meth cooks setting up shop in their own home using chemicals they have purchased at local stores.
A recent study (January 2010) in the American Journal of Psychiatry took a look at patients who were suffering long-term Meth psychosis and found no relief with antipsychotic medication but responded rapidly to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT or Shock Treatment).
Here in the United States, some parts of the country are seeing an increase in the number of Hispanic and Native American meth users. However, whites are still the most common meth users.
