methamphetamine abuse
Methamphetamine abuse involves using a powerful stimulant drug that affects the central nervous system, increasing alertness, energy, and feelings of euphoria. However, repeated use can lead to serious health problems, including addiction, cardiovascular issues, mental health disorders, and dental damage ("meth mouth"). It is often abused for its ability to produce intense, pleasurable effects, but these effects are short-lived, leading users to seek more, increasing the risk of dependency and negative consequences. Treatment typically requires medical and psychological support to address addiction and related health issues.
