    Arizona does not have an outpatient detox-rehab center specifically for meth.
    If the stigma of meth is so dangerous, why do they treat ameth addict the same as an alcoholic.
    I have gone to a lot of meth sites on the web. Where can I find actually facts about the long term effects of meth

    Long-term heavy use of amphetamines may lead to malnutrition, skin disorders, ulcers and diseases resulting from vitamin deficiencies. Regular use may contribute to lack of sleep and weight loss. Intravenous users are at risk for serious, life-threatening diseases such as AIDS, lung and heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases.

    Other Long-Term Methamphetamine Effects

    Hallucinations
    Disorganized lifestyle
    violent and aggressive behavior
    Permanent psychological problems
    Behavior resembling paranoid schizophrenia
    Poor coping abilities
    Disturbance of personality development
    Lowered resistance to illnesses
