Methamphetamine
Methamphetamine Addiction Treatment
Crystal methamphetamine (Meth) is a powerful, man-made stimulant that significantly impacts brain function and the central nervous system. It is known for its intense and long-lasting effects on both physical and mental health. Common street names include crystal, ice, speed, crank, Tina, rock candy, and glass. Meth can be used in various forms—swallowed, smoked, snorted, or injected—and often begins with a strong euphoric rush, making the user feel energetic, invincible, and highly productive. However, methamphetamine is also extremely addictive and poses dangerous health risks with continued use.
