Meth Addiction

Today, Methamphetamine is one of the most used and abused illegal drugs throughout the United States. Because of its ease to manufacture and the low cost, Meth abuse is quickly increasing in every city, county and state. Users of this controlling drug are often completely unaware of the toxic chemicals that go into making the drug Meth. Frequently, Meth is manufactured by inexperienced users in homemade labs that are known to blow up and produce toxic fumes.

A Meth user can experience many side effects from this terrible drug. Extreme paranoia, violent behavior, rapid weight loss, tooth loss, grinding the teeth, hallucinations, hearing voices, pale complexion, symptoms of Parkinson's disease, rapid speech that makes no sense, depression, sleeping or sleeplessness for long periods of time, suicide ideations and different forms of schizophrenia. Meth users are also known to see shadows that move and feel that people are after them. Sometimes Meth users accuse their family members and friends of being with the Police, FBI, CIA or other government agencies and express extreme anger and violence to their loved ones. These side effects can often remain permanent if not treated, this is called "Meth Psychosis".

Many family members of Meth users and the user themselves often do not know the seriousness and dangers of Meth.
