Methamphetamines
by Steve HillMethamphetamines act on the central nervous systems and cause the release of neurotransmitter dopamine and norepinephrine. Dopamine contributes to the euphoric feeling, intense emotion, motor movement of body and alertness, along with that rise in self esteem. Dopamine has also been attributed to increase libido and decrease in appetite. Norepinephrine although may contribute to empathy and euphoria, it is associated with the bizarre mood changes and psychotic aggressive behavior.
When compared to cocaine, methamphetamines not only work on blocking the feedback mechanism of the nervous system, it also work on the transporter, pushing out the dopamine faster. This is why after using methamphetamines over a period of time, dopamine becomes depleted and meth addiction patients develop Parkinson like symptoms. The use of cocaine produce euphoria up to about 20 minutes, compared to meth which produce euphoria for more than 12 hours. Due to this phenomenon, there has been shown a staggering increase in the amount of meth addiction cases when compared to cocaine and other drug addiction cases.
Although there have been much restrictions in access to this highly addictive drug, the supply of methamphetamine has accompanied the demand for the drug. It is currently been produced in the illegal market as crystal meth, a more potent and toxic form of the original form of methamphetamine. CrystalClear Meth Addiction Treatment
