Methamphetamine induced "high" artificially boosts self-confidence, many abusers are overcome by a so-called "superman syndrome." In that state of being, meth abusers ignore their physical limits and try to do stuff that they would normally be not able of performing. Methamphetamine is highly addictive the reason is that addicts often continue abusing the drug to avoid an inevitable crash that comes during the drugs' positive effects begin to wear off. Even first time users experience many of methamphetamine's negative effects.

Methamphetamine's negative effects include, but are not limited to the effects below, the following:

• Hyperactivity
• Irritability
• Visual hallucinations
• Auditory hallucinations (hearing "voices")
• Suicidal tendencies
• Aggression
• Suspiciousness, severe paranoia
• Shortness of breath
• Increased blood pressure
• Cardiac arrhythmia
• Stroke
• Sweating
• Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
• Long periods of sleep ("crashing" for 24-48 hours or more)
• Prolonged sluggishness, severe depression
• Weight loss, malnutrition, anorexia
• Itching (illusion that bugs are crawling on the skin)
• Welts on the skin
• Involuntary body movements
• Paranoid delusions
• Severe amphetamine induced depression and/or psychosis

The latest research from the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) does not indicate that there is an increase of use of Crystal Meth among the general population. The Ontario Student Drug Use Survey (OSDUS) shows that Crystal Meth use among youth populations is only 2%. Although there is no reason to believe there is any increase of use among high school students, we are still monitoring the use of this substance along with many others.
Some research does indicate that there might be a rise of methamphetamine use among specific populations, which may include the crowds in the club scene, or homeless youth. One study shows a 37% prevalence of methamphetamine abuse among Toronto street youth (Youth link Inner City, 2004).  Reports also confirm poly-drug use that includes methamphetamine (i.e. the combination of two or more drugs for recreational use) on the streets of Toronto, according to the “Drug use in Toronto” survey results. 

There may be no indication that there is a high prevalence of Crystal Meth use among the mainstream populations, nonetheless, Crystal Meth and poly-drug use among street youth is increasing and does deserve attention.

Ice rehab

”Ice” is a street term for crystal methamphetamine hydrochloride, which is a powerful, synthetic substance. Stimulant narcotics speed up the communications going to and from the brain.
Ice is more potent than other forms of amphetamines. It is more pure than the powder form of methamphetamine ("speed").
Ice frequently appears as large, transparent and “sheet-like” crystals that might have a hint of pink, blue or green colour.
Other street terms for ice are “meth”, “d-meth”, “crystal”, “crystal meth”, “shabu” “batu”, “tina” and “glass”.

One of the reasons for taking meth is the misguided idea these kids have concerning weight loss. Teenagers do have drastic weight loss when using meth for any substantial length of time. Since meth suppresses the appetite, the weight loss seems effortless. Nonetheless, this is an extremely hazardous way to try to control their weight. As soon as these individuals stop using meth, the weight comes back on very fast. The youth begins an increased consumption of the substance in an attempt to control their weight, as they try to live up to an impossible standard the media and advertisers have pushed on upon them.
    Prevalence and patterns of drug abuse by urban street youth differ from city to city but appear to be much elevated than student use. A pattern of raised use with age is clearly associated to adolescent psychological development, during which peer relationships assume greater importance. Transition between school levels clearly represents a point of vulnerability for certain individuals (Preventing Substance Use Problems Among Young People).
