That's Fit

The drug addict is a model of behavior that I like to study on a consistent basis. Why do drug addicts subject their bodies to synthetic "recreational" drugs? To escape real life? To get a constant physical "high" that feels good? There are a thousand other reasons most likely. But, once a drug is tried, the possibility for addiction sinks hooks into you.

The drug that man of us hear about these days is "meth." Commonly called "crystal meth," the technical term is methamphetamine, and the effects of this drug are outright damaging (psychologically and physically). Meth s produced cheaply (sometimes with off-the-shelf ingredients), which makes it very popular.

In an added note of absurdity, drug pushers are adding "sweet flavorings" and other junk food ingredients into the mix to get first-time meth users into the habit using "taste" hooks. If you know somebody using meth in any way (flavored or not), setting that person up to get help is the only humane thing to do.
