Methamphetamines…the Scourge of the New Year.

You may have heard it referred to as speed, crystal ice, chalk, and meth.  A drug by any other name is very destructive.  Thousands of Americans will die in 2017 because of methamphetamines.  It is no joke.  This is not a recreational drug.  It is destroying lives from coast to coast and if you have discovered over the holidays that a loved one is hooked, you need to take action!

No matter how it is used it will eventually end up in the bloodstream and is circulated throughout the brain.  The part that it affects most is the areas of your brain that contain a chemical called dopamine.  Dopamine is often called the “pleasure transmitter” because it helps you feel good.  Methamphetamines tamper with dopamine.  So when your body “crashes” the craving for more of the drug begins.

The New Year should have many resolutions.  The most important one you can make for yourself and/or a loved one is discovering Blu By the Sea.  This remarkable rehabilitation center is located on the beautiful shores of the Gulf of Mexico.  Take a virtual visit for yourself and type in www.blubythesea.com.  This could change your life well beyond 2017.
