What does methamphetamine do to your body?
When someone takes methamphetamine, the drug creates a false sense of well-being and energy, making the user push their body faster and further than it's actually capable of. The user can endure a severe crash or mental breakdown when trying to get off of the drug. User's can also experience extreme weight loss due to the drug making them loose their appetite.
Methamphetamine can also cause hyperactivity, insomnia, nausea, increased aggressiveness, hallucinations, anxiety, paranoia and convulsions, which in some cases can lead to death.
Some affects are irreversible. Such as increased heart rate and blood pressure, damaged blood vessels in the brain that can cause strokes of irregular heart beat that could cause cardiovascular, collapse or death and liver, kidney and lung damage.
Some users experience brain damage, including memory loss and an inability to keep abstract thoughts.

Antonie Dixon
Antonie Dixon, powered by methamphetamine, attacked his girlfriend and her friend, Simon Butler Renee Gunbie, with a samurai sword in Pipiora before driving to Auckland shooting James Te Aute.
During Dixon's trial, he claimed that he was insane, but was still found guilty for murder, grievous bodily harm, firearms charges and shooting at police.
Dixon was found guilty again at his second trial.
Dixon was found dead in 2009 in his cell the day he was meant to appear at court. Reports say that he hung himself.
