why do people take meth does it make u skinnier?

Answer 1

Nope, it makes your teeth fall out and makes you pull out your hair. You pick at imaginary bugs hence the oozing sores on their face. They take it because they are stupid. They may end up skinny but who cares because they look like walking death.

Answer 2

All amphetamines (like meth, dexedrine, X, MDA) and phenethylamine (like mescaline) consist of molecules that fit into a particular set of receptor sites in your brain cells. They all have different effects, durations, and side effects, but in general they all act as stimulants. This makes the nerve cells affected more sensitive to stimulation. The user feels wide awake, full of energy, and maybe even euphoric (high). Their appetites are depressed and they often feel the need to move around, dance, walk, and talk for many hours. So that tends to make the long-term user lose a lot of weight.

Some people take meth to lose weight, some to stay awake and get lots of work done, some just because they like the feelings. It can enhance sexual feelings, but it can also make men impotent.

So much for the "benefits". Now think about the downside: Sleep deprivation can make you insane! Meth users can feel very sick and depressed when they come down, so they take more, etc. After 48-96 hours of this they can be very very sick. An overdose can give you a heart attack. Some people find that even a single dose of meth leaves them feeling like they have the flu for days after they come down. It can also make you very paranoid, so you think someone is going to harm you. But you should be paranoid, because it is illegal, and the kind of people you meet to buy meth are not the kind of people who should know where you live! (They tend to steal stuff to get money for more meth.)

If you need to lose weight, think about using a high protein low carb diet, combined with walking about 5 miles per day. MUCH better than meth!

Answer 3

Meth is a highly addictive substance, that that once you start taking it, it is almost impossible to quit. If you are tempted, because you may think you have a weight problem, think again. You WILL loose your teeth. You WILL have the worst "Friends" in the world. You Will become a much worse person. And you WILL loose so much weight, that your body will start consuming not only your body fat, but also your bone marrow, and leave you highly susceptible to all kinds of diseases, with much longer recovery times. Death in your 20's or thirties will be a relieve.

Answer 4

If you're talking about"meth-anphetimine", you should note that the main ingredient is "Anphetimine." Which is a strong stimulant. It also strongly curbs ones apetite. It is also a bi-product used in many diet aid pills as well.

So, the drug actually helps your weight by increasing your metabolism, and it keeps you from getting hungry. But there are many many more effective and safer drugs out there than that killer.

Answer 5

Sure , that's 1 side affect (caused by not feeling hungry), but the health risks are a dangerous gamble. Meth is just a plain bad idea.

Answer 6

yes, i heard that crystal meth does make people thin by having the loss of appetite after consuming meth. the result of the drug long-usage causes the human face to look as if it's deteriorating. also, some sort of crystals grow around your mouth area. it's pretty horrible...

Answer 7

it will make one skinny because it kills your appetite. the sight of food will disgust you. it will also make you crazy because you will not sleep for days and days. you will get addicted because meth makes you think "you got the answer to everything"

Answer 8
