Crystal meth gives a very attractive high.
Why do you suppose? If you ask meth users they will tell you that after
taking the drug they experience a sudden “rush” of pleasure or a prolonged
sense of euphoria. They also report that they get an increased energy, more
focus; they get self confidence and sexual prowess with feelings of
desirability. What they don’t tell you is that after that first try they
have to use more and more of the drug to get that same feeling again and keep
that feeling. All of this use of crystal meth puts a strain on the mind
and the body. Their body is robbed of physical health and they can’t
think clearly. All of those sexual feelings they had while on the drug;
well, those go away as well as the ability to experience any kind of pleasure.
The reason for this is that the drug actually changes the brain
chemistry. It destroys the wiring in the brain’s pleasure centers.
Some studies have shown that these tissues can regrow over time but the process
can take years. These changes in the brain can actually lead to violent
behavior.
One of the most striking effects of meth is the change in the appearance of the meth user. The blood vessels are made to constrict in a meth user and it cuts off steady flow of blood to all parts of the body so now the body cannot repair itself well. Users get acne, sores take longer to heal, and the skin loses it shine and elasticity. Many people who use meth lose weight as it does suppress your appetite. Users get a gaunt and frail look. They do things like tooth-grinding and have poor diets and bad hygiene. All of this leads to mouths full of broken stained and rotting teeth.
All of these things sound horrible but crystal meth users sometimes are not aware of this goings on because they have fake self confidence.
There are many other things that will happen to the body
of a meth user, today our message is get educated and don’t start using
meth. It may be an affordable way for you to get high but in the end the
cost is really too great.
