Methamphetamine Addiction Overview

Overcome Methamphetamine Addiction to Renew You Zest for Life

Methamphetamine, or what is commonly known as meth, is a highly addictive stimulant. Many users get hooked right after trying it for the first time. It can be eaten, snorted, smoked or injected. While it seems pleasurable in the beginning, meth gradually destroys the body.

More About Methamphetamine Addiction

Methamphetamine is used for medical purposes such as treating ADHD and narcolepsy. Meth is also illegally produced in makeshift laboratories. Street meth is made using products like ammonia and battery acid. Cooking meth is dangerous, and many people get burnt and even die while producing meth.

Consuming meth gives a surge of happiness to the user. As dopamine is released into the brain by meth, the dopamine receptors gradually get destroyed. Long-term meth addicts are unable to feel pleasure without using meth. Even though the pleasure centres can be healed, the cognitive abilities of a meth user might face permanent damage.
