HI, I'm writing a story and I need to know which drug makes people look (physically) the UGLIEST when they are addicted to it. Is it crystal meth (sp)?
I'm writing a story, which is why I need to know.
Also, if you know where any pictures of addicts are (online) please include a link.
Thank you!

Sorry, I mentioned the story twice. I guess I forgot I mentioned it after I walked away half way through.

From personal experience I happen to know that crystal meth does terrible things to you. My cousin was an addict and she stopped caring about everything but the drug. She got sickly skinny, didnt care about showering, brushing her hair, anything. Yeah, I'd say as far as drugs go you've picked the best one. Only why are you writing about what drugs make you ugly? I mean really, if you're gonna tackle something as dangerous as crystal meth than really get into details and talk about what it does to your moods, etc. Any drug can make you "ugly"

Crystal meth is the one, but heroin comes close. Crack cocaine can make a person look pretty bad over time but not compared to meth. Meth use comes with the signature sores all over the face, rotten teeth and sunken cheeks and can make a person who's 20 look 50 in a matter of months.
In my experience, meth users who inject it with a syringe look uglier and older much faster than someone who smokes, snorts or swallow it.

Yeah methamphetamine...a.k.a. CRANK.....is a terribly addictive drug...but there are many other like heroine....I'd say meth because most meth users have awful teeth....

Ice is the new ugly drug that has taken over Australia. Its a pure Amphetamine more potent than speed. It will destroy your life and looks in a matter of months. If it doesnt kill you first that is.
