I don't know about your location, but around here in my
quaint little town of white rock not far from the city of
vancouver kids as young as grade 5 are getting seriously
into meth. Almost everyone I know now is doing this damaging
drug! It's getting pretty fucking bad now. I'm starting to
see old friends becoming very messed up. I was in the scene
for about a week and it opened up my eyes to see how many
people are actually doing it. I backed away from it pretty
fast. Not my thing..

i would say i'm well informed about drugs, but i've never
really known about crystal meth, so i had to look it up:

crystal meth
(crystal methamphetamine, tina, crystal meths, krank, tweak,
ice)

Crystal meth is an intensive stimulant with disinhibitory
qualities

Once very big amongst some of the US gay community but now
spreading fast into mainstream culture, meth was originally
used by bikers and truckers to stay awake on long journeys.
Crystal is made of highly volatile, toxic substances (based
on such chemical "precursors" as methylamine and amyl amine)
that are melded in differing combinations, forming what some
have described as a "mix of laundry detergent and lighter
fluid."

The mixes are never exactly the same, but basic types are a
rough yellow substance called Hydro and a smooth white blend
called Glass. Half a gram costs around £25 and a £15 hit
would probably keep you going for a few days.

The drug can either be snorted or injected, or in its
crystal form 'ice' smoked in a pipe, and brings on a feeling
of exhilaration and a sharpening of focus. Smoking ice
results in an instantaneous dose of almost pure drug to the
brain, giving a huge rush followed by a feeling of euphoria
for anything from 2-16 hours.

For some this could result in obsessive cleaning or tidying,
but for many the biggest bonus is the sense of sexual
liberation which can result in mad, abandoned sex for hours
- sometimes days - on end.

It's ability to keep users awake and feeling good for long
periods have resulted in the drug making heavy inroads into
the US gay dance scene, although its use is still rare in
the UK.

Side effects: The biggest risk is from the increased chance
of HIV infection through unprotected and uninhibited sex
while under the influence of meth. The liberating nature of
the drug means that often safe sex is discarded while sexual
activity increases greatly. It has been reported in the
States that in almost half of the new AIDS cases, crystal
meth has been a factor.

Smoking ice results in body temperature rises and rapid
cardiac and respiratory rates developing as the blood
pressure increases. The drug can lead to hallucinations,
paranoia, and bizarre, aggressive and psychotic behaviour.

Health risks: The effects and dependence potential of meth
are similar to that of amphetamine misuse, although as the
stuff is a lot stronger, the dangers involved are greater
with an increased chance of overdose.

Overuse can bring on paranoia, short term memory loss, wild
rages and mood swings as well as damage to your immune
system. As far as we know, it is not physically addictive,
although many have quickly developed a very strong
psychological and damaging dependence for the drug.

Overdosing can lead to severe convulsions followed by
circulatory and respiratory collapse, coma and death. Some
people have died after taking small doses.

Note: In the UK it seems to be difficult to find consistent
reports of peoples experiences on the drug, with most
claiming that it is the same as 'Base speed'.

Most of my friends use meth, many are IV drug users......
I've used it on or off for 5 years, but havn't touched it
for 12 months.

I find it fairly subtle in it's effect, and therefore very
easy to get used to having. Easy to get habituated. Many
of my friends suffer from mental illness, as have I in the
past. I can see a clear link between usage and illness.....
the biggest users are the most sick.

It's very hard to see the effects while you are
using........ i don't like the drug.

I have often thought I have adhd. When I do cocaine I get
very calm. I sit and listen to people. I could almost fall
asleep. I have a different reaction to E aswell. I tend to
wander off and sit alone and meditate.

Meth info

Meth is extremely common in New Mexico and most of America
as far as I can tell. Its quite easy to make but very
dangerous. A meth lab is extremely volatile. Really a shit
drug, very addictive and cheaper than coke/cocaine - its
quite popular amongst white trash and lower income families.

What's adderall?.. I thought you guys would be educated
enough not to do such drugs? Surely, in the end all drugs
just end up to becoming far too damaging... that's why
they're illegal right?

that was a couple years ago, i don't really like the way it
makes me feel now, tho.

Meth is fucking scary. It fucks you up for life, and makes
you a fucking asshole that can't think straight.

I've read lots of people in small town america are into it,
many use it to stay awake so they can work 2 jobs/loads of
overtime. Is that true? If so, you could imagine the
government being not massively fussed about stamping the
problem out.
