Meth Detox and Treatment
Crystal methamphetamine is a form of d-methamphetamine, a powerful and highly addictive synthetic stimulant. Meth detox and treatment is often the only way meth users are able to put the drug down for good. It’s hold on people is so powerful that people in the full throes of meth addiction often neglect personal hygiene and basic human needs. The non-profit Meth Project website has some harrowing before and after pictures that really drive that point home.

Long-Term Meth Use Often Has Severe Consequences
Crystal meth is incredibly addictive. Chronic abusers frequently end up suffering serious consequences from its use. A meth detox can halt addiction in it’s tracks and give a person a chance to begin to heal and recover. However, the relapse and recidivism rate for meth users is staggeringly high when they don’t receive longer term treatment and enter a program of recovery. The fact is that steering clear of the people, places and things that steer them towards the drug can become an irresistible siren song. But with meth detox and treatment and substantial lifestyle changes, total recovery from meth addiction is achievable. Stopping meth use, particular long-term use is critical. Long-term meth use often has serious physical and mental impact and consequences.
Physical consequences of meth use may include:
- Severe weight loss
- Malnutrition
- Tooth loss
- Brain damage
- Stroke
- Seizures
- Heart attack
- Sores and lesions
Psychological consequences of meth use may include:
- Psychosis
- Paranoia
- Hallucinations
- Trouble focusing
- Poor motor skills
- Mood disturbances
- Memory loss
- Depression
Commit to Recovery from Meth Addiction
It only makes sense to give yourself the best chance possible by following any and all clinical recommendations to the best of your ability. If it is recommended that you attend treatment for 30 days followed by another 30 days or more of intensive outpatient, find a way to do it if at all possible. TruHealing Centers also recommends long term stays at a reputable sober living house when possible.
Recovering people who stay as long as 6-12 months while continuing treatment and a program of recovery have markedly lower relapse rates than those who simply attend meth detox and return home. The bottom line is that recovery is about permanent lifestyle changes. The more you can do to instill new habits and ways of thinking for yourself (or the person receiving treatment) then better the chances for successful long-term recovery. We ask that anyone entering meth detox simply keep an open mind and consider completing a course of treatment with us to ensure they get the help they need.
