In my experience, meth is VERY addictive.
Unless you have a heap of respect for your body and just pay attention to how it eats your body up, it's VERY easy to go down Addiction Road on this one. I used it a fair bit over a period of four years... at first only very sporadically, toward the end every weekend multiple times, and occasionally during the week just to keep feeling okay.
I think it's right up there with nicotine, alcohol, cocaine - perhaps even opiates (although I have never had opiate addiction, I can just imagine how terrible it must be, since the opiate high is truly nicely fuzzy).
The psychological addiction potential is incredibly huge with meth, and when I felt myself slipping into addiction, I wasn't sure if it was physical or not. I just felt so tired without it, as if I couldn't really move.... the mind and body are very much connected.
Still it shouldn't be banned. When will our education systems begin to teach people to look after themselves ffs? As long as we aren't taught to look after ourselves, OF COURSE many of us get addicted to this and that. We need to learn to be responsible citizens, first and foremost responsible for ourselves - this is all to do with lifestyle options.... what do you eat, what's your exercise routine, what drugs do you use, etc. . . . we aren't taught any of this... few of us learn at school how to get in touch with our body or spirit... we aren't shown the connection between the two... etc.
I could go on and on and on about this. But I'll stop here.
