What methamphetamine does to your brain
Dopamine Dysregulation
Methamphetamine increases dopamine release. It is a neurotransmitter associated with the brain's reward system and pleasure pathways. This surge leads to intense euphoria and causes neurochemical dysregulation. Over time, meth use depletes dopamine reserves and damages dopamine receptors, leading to anhedonia. The user loses the ability to experience pleasure from normally enjoyable activities.
Cognitive Impairment
Chronic methamphetamine use results in neurocognitive deficits. It impairs working memory, executive function, and attention span. These cognitive impairments reduce gray matter volume and white matter integrity in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. These areas of the brain are crucial for decision-making, problem-solving, and memory.
Structural Brain Changes
Methamphetamine induces neuroplastic changes, particularly in the limbic system and cortical structures involved in emotion regulation and memory processing. These alterations can manifest as emotional lability, heightened aggression, and severe psychiatric disorders such as methamphetamine-induced psychosis. These conditions are characterized by paranoia and hallucinations. Neuroimaging studies often reveal a reduced volume of the amygdala and hippocampus.
Long-Term Neurotoxic Effects
Methamphetamine causes oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and excitotoxicity. They contribute to neuronal apoptosis and long-term neurodegeneration. This neurotoxicity affects the brain's ability to function normally, making it harder to recover. It is possible to mitigate these risks with evidence-based treatment, like nonrehabilitation and psychotherapeutic interventions.
