What is the appeal of meth? It doesn’t seem to have much of an upside.
Talking to a cop who has had the training, it gives a really high high. You can have sex all night. Your energy seems boundless. it’s absolutely wonderful UNTIL you come down. Then you feel lifeless. The cure? More meth!! Yiippeee!!! We get to do it all over again. Eventually the toll on the body is too much. Your teeth and bones get soft. Concentration ability is gone. I have known personally a person who went through this. He’s in prison now. he had a good paying job. Nice house. wonderful family. He now has nothing but jail buddies now. It is absolutely horrid stuff. It will ruin a persons life.Guaranteed.
The appeal is $$$$$. Caused entirely by prohibition!
This kind of thing didn't happen a hundred years ago when we had the RIGHT TO CHOOSE our own medicine and treatment without an elected criminal monopoly shoving a gun in our face!
Had this individual been allowed to peaceably purchase his drug of choice at a drugstore in a properly labeled container he might not have taken the wrong one.
Helps you lose weight. Helps you stay awake. Presumably it helps people work harder and faster, but Ive often wondered if work quality suffers. And Ive heard that its also a party drug, which must mean it enhances sexual experiences, maybe not for your partner, but for you. As I understand it, meth continues to be a problem in the gay club scene.
The actress Delta Burke said in interviews said she got started on it to lose weight. But I think she’s been clean and sober for a long time now.
