Methamphetamine addiction
There are several reasons why an individual would start using meth. One common thread throughout all the reasons is that using meth produces pleasurable effects which the person loves. The meth user knows that each time they use, they will feel good ("high"), so they look for this feeling. At first, using meth is all about the pleasure obtained. As time goes on though, the person starts to feel they need to use meth to feel normal. The individual falls into meth addiction. This addiction is unintentional and generally unforeseen by the individual.
Individuals who struggle with a tendency to use meth are not seeking to hurt themselves, everyone and destroy everything in their path. These disastrous consequences are the result of the vicious cycle of a meth addiction. For several, meth use seems to be a way of averting emotional and/or physical pain by providing the user with a temporary escape from life's sometimes uncomfortable realities. Example, someone tries meth for the first time. The drug APPEARS to solve their problems. They feel better. Because they now SEEM able to cope with life, meth becomes valuable to them. The individual looks at meth as a solution for unwanted feelings. The painkilling effects of meth then become a solution to all their discomfort. This release is the principal reason an individual uses meth a second or third time. It is just a question of time before they becomes completely addicted to meth and lose the ability to control their meth use. Meth addiction, then, is a consequence of excessive or chronic use of the drug in an attempt to resolve the underlying symptoms of discomfort or unhappiness.
Over time, an individual's ability to decide not to use meth can become compromised--soon enough, the individual rationalizes the need to use consistently and will do anything to get high. They are now caught in the vicious cycle of using meth to deal with the pain and creating more pain by using. They now display the physiological symptoms of a meth fixation. The individual with a methamphetamine addiction become difficult to communicate with, is withdrawn, and start to exhibit other strange behaviours associated with a meth habit.
Additionally to the mental stress resulting from an unethical behavior, the addict's body has also adapted to the presence of the drug. They will feel an overwhelming obsession with getting and using meth. This is when the addict starts to experience meth cravings. Ironically, the meth addict's ability to get "high" gradually decreases as his body adapts to the presence of the drug and its foreign chemicals. They must use more and more meth, not just to get an effect, but frequently just to function at all.
At this point, the addict is caught in the vicious dwindling spiral of methamphetamine addiction. Meth use has changed the individual both physically and mentally. They have crossed an invisible and intangible line.
The compulsion to use meth will take over the person's life. An individual's gravitation to meth frequently involves not only compulsive drug use, but also a wide range of dysfunctional behaviours that can interfere with normal functioning in the family, the workplace, and the broader community. Meth addiction can put users at an increased risk for a wide variety of other illnesses. These illnesses can be the result of poor living and health habits that frequently accompany life as a meth addict, or because of toxic effects of the drug.
