  • Snorting or oral ingesting meth produces euphoria but not an intense rush such as that which is experienced through smoking or injecting the drug.
  • Research of long-term recreational Ecstasy users has found that this type of use results in increased rates of depression and anxiety, even after quitting Ecstasy.
  • Sometimes the bottles used to produce meth using the "shake and bake" method explode, badly burning the meth cook and anyone else in the line of fire.
