What are the visible difference between a person that smokes meth. and a person that slams meth?

Question

besides the obvious needle marks? Does any body know? And if a person was hiding it where would they shoot up?

Answer 1

As with all addictive drugs, the potential for addiction is greater when it is delivered by methods that cause the concentration in the blood to rise quickly, principally because the effects desired by the user are felt more quickly and with a higher intensity than through a moderated delivery mechanism.

In fact, studies have shown that the subjective pleasure of drug use (the reinforcing component of addiction) is proportional to the rate that the blood level of the drug increases. In general, smoking is the "fastest" mechanism (i.e., it causes the blood concentration to rise the most quickly in the shortest period of time as it allows the substance to travel to brain through a more direct route than intravenous injection), followed by injecting, then snorting, then swallowing.

It is not entirely certain where anal insertion would fall on this list, but some scant anecdotal evidence puts the effects somewhere between those of smoking and snorting.

I think they both lead to "FRIED BRAIN" and eventually early death. The easiest place to inject is the arms, veins are large and easy to reach. There are some places on the legs and calf's etc. A junkie always finds a place to put the poison. What a nightmare!!!
