About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Meth is known to be highly addictive. Some users become physically dependent upon the drug quickly (within the first few times of trying it).
Research has shown that extended abuse of meth can cause damage to the users brain similar to that caused by Alzheimer's disease, stroke and epilepsy. This brain damage lingers for months and even after the user stops taking the drug.
The Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs collects client data from all publicly monitored treatment providers in California. The data for the California State Fiscal Year 2001-2002 through State Fiscal Year 2004-2005 shows the percentage of clients admitted with a primary meth problem increased from 26.2%to 34% of all clients.
Long-term meth abuse can cause respiratory problems, irregular heartbeat, cardiovascular collapse and even death.
Meths effects are much longer lasting than the effects of cocaine, however their costs are similar. Because they cost about the same but meths effects last longer it is sometimes called the "poor mans cocaine."
