AGGRESSION

Meth stimulates the emotional center of the brain (the amygdala). The longer Meth is used, the more sensitive and hyperactive the emotional center of the brain becomes. The result is powerful negative emotions that can turn into aggression for little or no reason. Depending on the person and the circumstances, this reaction can range from irritability and moodiness to verbal attacks and even physical violence. When people stop using, get sleep, and begin to repair their bodies, their brains also repair and this behavior subsides.
