Meth is usually made in a makeshift lab, by “chemists” who are no more than ordinary drug pushers. You don’t know what is really in the drug, so why even take the risk? Anyone with a meth addiction would be wise to seek help from a rehab facility as soon as possible. Do it soon, because it will claim your life quickly. Once your skin becomes gray and you thin out, your teeth will rot from your head.
