This is only a few of the physical and psychological signs of a meth addiction. If a person is struggling with addiction to the substance, it will also affect their ability to perform everyday tasks and fulfill role obligations. The person may struggle to keep up in work or school and their relationships with loved ones may become strained or fail.

Because of the way it affects a person’s life, meth addiction treatment is paramount. Without treatment, substance users risk damaging all aspects of their lives, the people they love, and put themselves at risk for long term health issues and even death.

Recognizing a Meth Overdose

An untreated meth addiction can quickly devolve into a meth overdose. The longer a person uses meth, the more they’ll have to use in order to acquire the effects they desire. The more they use, the higher their risk is for a meth overdose.

If someone is exhibiting a combination of the following symptoms after meth use, they require immediate medical attention:

  • Enlarged pupils
  • Irregular and/or rapid heartbeat
  • Chest pains
  • High body temperature and blood pressure
  • Stomach pain
  • Agitation
  • Paranoia

If the person does not receive treatment from a medical professional, they are at risk for more severe health problems such as:

  • Heart attack
  • Stroke
  • Brain damage
  • Organ failure
