AB Over the years methamphetamine abuse has plagued the American judicial system, our health care system, and communities both big and small. With such proliferated abuse comes an invasion of poverty, crime, addiction, prostitution, venereal diseases, and death. Furthermore, research indicates that 34.9% of admitted meth users “had committed violence while under the influence of methamphetamine” [1]. Statistics such as these raise concern for our youth, and for the future of our communities. However, in order to properly understand the reasoning for such behaviour, we must first begin to outline the neurological impact methamphetamine has on its users over an extended period of time. Therefore, this paper examines the neurological alterations/impact which is the result of prolonged methamphetamine abuse.
