The short-term effects of smoking crystal meth are varied and dangerous, making this one of the more hazardous, if not the most hazardous, street drugs to use.

Crystal methamphetamine is created from d-methamphetamine and is a highly addictive and dangerous drug that is injected, swallowed, smoked and sometimes snorted. Crystal meth resembles shiny crystal or glass rocks that are usually pale blue-white in color. Crystal meth is a stimulant and can make people feel elated, which makes it an attractive drug choice among many. The long-term and short-term effects of smoking crystal meth have been well documented, and one thing this drug is not is attractive. In fact, crystal meth is downright deadly.

Often something you hear about street drugs (all addictive drugs in fact) is that the long-term effects are bad for you health-wise, but if you stop soon enough you can reverse some of the health risks. Consider smoking tobacco. Quit-smoking techniques are often centered around the long-term negative health consequences, and it has actually been proven that people who quit smoking (even after years of tobacco use) reduce those health risks. This is not the case with crystal meth. Crystal meth can be deadly from the beginning, and the health risks in the long term are less likely to be reduced by quitting.

This is not to say people should not quit crystal meth if they’re already using; it's just that with this drug there's a much shorter time-frame in which good health

The short-term effects of smoking crystal meth can be instantaneous. Smoking actually produces a different short-term effect than injections or snorting. When someone first smokes crystal meth, what happens is that right away the individual will feel more in focus and exhilarated because smoking meth ensures that a big dose of this toxin heads straight to the brain.

Since smoking creates an instantaneous effect, it's a huge rush for the people who use it and the feeling of exhilaration or euphoria that occurs is addictive. Other quicker, short-term effects may include a need to clean or organize, along with reduced social and or sexual inhibitions.

While feeling happy and less inhibited can possibly be looked at as positive, there are also instant physical issues occurring when crystal meth is smoked. Crystal meth goes to work immediately on the central nervous system by producing massive levels of both norepinephrine and dopamine. These are neurotransmitters in the brain that do need to function properly in order to lead a normal life. Crystal meth interferes with how they work, and plenty of research shows that abnormalities in neurotransmitters can affect both mood and behavior negatively.

The effect crystal meth has on neurotransmitters can cause:

All of the above are short and long-term effects of crystal meth. Most of the time, the long-term effects of crystal meth are simply highly-exaggerated short-term effects. Another thing crystal meth can do right away is effect nutrition

Lastly, few studies have been done on how a huge cloud of toxic crystal meth smoke may effect lung health. It's well documented that cigarettes – full of toxins themselves - are very bad for lung health. It's likely that smoking crystal meth is even worse because it's a far more toxic and potent drug.

The first effects noted above that hit someone after smoking crystal meth, such as the rush and euphoria, can last from two to six hours. The problem is that often users go on what's called a "speed run". This means they'll continually use, so there's a question about how long short-term effects last. Also, once a drug tolerance has built in an individual, it becomes more difficult to draw a time table. However, two to six hours is what the best research noted by Narconon relates. Narconon is a great resource for users of crystal meth. Narconon is a non-profit program that has associations with around 100 or more drug rehab programs and clinics.

Indyone- My advice is currently worth about 7%. That said, what is the average market cycle in length? When does the bottom typically occur?

Reason I ask is because you make these assumptions that the “market collective knows” – as if it were some wise, all-knowing entity that is never wrong.  I disagree.  I think the markets are wildly inefficient, which is why I believe in active management and not passive indexing. 

Euro is getting smoked.  I hate to tell you I was right, but back when Dubai happened, I remember making the call that it wasn’t going to be an isolated incident while you posted pictures of arab men riding on camels.  This thing is for real.  After Greece gets resolved, all eyes turn on Portugal, then Spain, then Irelan and Italy and LAtvia, then UK… Long USD vs EUR is the trade right now.
