Can a delayed on-set mental disturbance or brain damage occur which mimics a bipolar-like state? Causing the person to act nearly insane and violent episodes with lots of crazy talk?

People who use meth on a regular basis will act just like a bipolar person. They will be up and talkative for a while but after a few days of no sleep they get paranoid, angry, skiddish, not at all like themselves. the longer they do the meth the worse it gets. I have seen it ruin several peoples lives. They lost their families, friends, jobs, homes, everything. It takes over your mind and body and will ruin you. As for the long term effects, I think it is possible that it could bring on mental illness, I'm not too sure about seizures. I klnow people can have seizures while they're high on meth and heart attacks are common, too.

It causes seizures yes, it is a stimulant so it messes with all your bodily systems. Also it can cause your teeth to fall out, you to get skin infections, and make your finger nails discolor and fall off. It causes mood swings and paranoia. That crap is just plain bad.

If you can, try to access A&E called Meth:Crisis, from February 22. It was very enlightening - hopefully a wake-up call for even just ONE person. It is BAD S--T, even from just one hit for some people,

Of course it can, if you want to "see" the effects of using meth on your physical appearance you can by googling, faces of meth, it will also give info on long term effects.
