"With chronic use, tolerance for meth can develop. In an effort to intensify the desired effects, users may take higher doses of the drug, take it more frequently, or change their method of drug intake."

"I grew up in a place where Meth was almost nonexistent. So when I was visiting a friend in another state, I thought I was snorting cocaine, but after about 24 hours of being high I was told that it was Meth. I had no clue what Meth was. I managed to only do it for that day or two, but that one time was enough. I put myself in incredible danger. It was given to me by some random guy at a bar. As soon as it took effect I wanted more, more, more. So I went to this random guy's house to do more. I could have been raped, murdered, arrested, anything. But I didn't care. I just wanted another hit. I even called my best friend to come over for 'free' hits. Thank goodness she pulled me out of there. The only thing that kept me from doing it again was that I went back to my hometown where it wasn't available. If it wasn't for that, I would still be at that random scumbag's house doing Meth.

It's not like anything you've ever tried. You may think to yourself that you are stronger than it... that you can stop when you want toŠ you can't. You are not stronger. You will become addicted. You won't be able to stop because you will never want to. It will take over your life. You will become Meth."
