Drug Info - Crystal Meths

Intense stimulant which people can get addicted to very quickly.

Effects can last between 2-16 hours.

Makes people feel happy and very sexy (I said it makes them feel that way – that does not mean they are sexy!!)

Can cause hallucinations and paranoia for several days after. Some people can become psychotic (very angry and dangerous).

People have died after taking only small amounts. Overdose starts with really bad fits/seizures and then their heart and lungs can stop working. People can end up in a coma or dead.
