Wise Up

Imagine what it would be like to no longer enjoy your favorite food, hanging out with friends, listening to music, playing PS2, watching movies, playing sports. 

Some people may tell you that using Meth is the greatest rush you'll ever experience.  Others brag about the weight they lose with the 'Jenny Crank' diet.  Before you take their word for it, learn the facts.

Meth causes long term or even permanent changes in your brain chemistry.  These changes include an impact on dopamine - the chemical reaction that allows you to feel pleasure and enjoyment.  So far, research has found that these changes can last at least three years after a person stops using Meth. 

As for weight loss...well, you will lose the pounds.  And over time, your looks, your health, and very likely your future.  Check out the Effects of Meth and think about it.  Is it really worth it?
