Crystal meth addiction has gone from being primarily a west coast phenomenon to reaching epidemic proportions throughout the country in a very short time. It is one of the most, if not the most, psychologically addictive drugs on the scene today. Many report addiction beginning with the very first use. Consequently, it is one of the hardest drug addictions to treat and many die in its grip. With ingredients like battery acid, drain cleaner, lantern fuel, and anti-freeze being use in the manufacturing process the health risks multiply quickly. As of July 2005, 58% of all U.S. local police and law enforcement staff were reporting methamphetamine abuse as their biggest drug problem.
