Once methamphetamine is in the blood stream, the drug creates a sharp increase of dopamine in the brain, a neurotransmitter that causes feelings of reward and pleasure in the user. The positive feeling is so intense, users are inclined to binge on the drug before experiencing a crash and then repeating the cycle all over again.
Constant use causes severe impairment to the user’s dopamine receiver causing a permanent severe depression and brain damage. The consistent gradual increase of meth intake can easily lead to furthering the body’s dependency on the drug or a fatal overdose.
