Meth addiction causes both physical and mental problems for users in their future. Many meth addicts are unaware of the side effects of the drugs they are addicted too, but also they are unaware that they are slowly killing themselves with every hit of meth they take. Some side effects of meth addiction can include physically: sunk in face from lack of nutrition, hair falling out, teeth rotting out, sores all over the body will appear and they will spread once the addict starts scratching themselves because they feel “bugs” under the skin, and the users nails and toes will loss their strength and sometimes fall off. Some psychological effects of meth addiction can cause a person to lose any mental normality that he or she might have. Psychological effects include, but are not limited to anxiety, psychosomatic disorders, Psychomotor agitation, repetitive and obsessive behaviors, paranoia, and memory loss.
As you can see, the effects of meth addiction are not worth the feeling you get when you are high. A meth addict is 50% more likely to live a life of poverty, loneliness, and full of health issues than a person who is sober from meth.
