They're scratching themselves, there’s big scabs all over them. It’s like it’s eating them from the inside out.
That’s how one drug user described crystal meth – saying it was the worst drug he had ever seen.
Speaking on RTÉ, he said, ”People are only on it a week or two and you can see it in their appearance.
“They’re paranoid 24/7, they think people are after them, looking for things that aren’t there. It’s crazy.
“It’s starting to take a hold and when it does Dublin is going to be ruined because of it.”
Crystal methamphetamine is a powerful synthetic stimulant which is highly addictive. It can be smoked in a glass pipe, injected, snorted or swallowed.
A senior source at the Revenue’s Customs Service told TheJournal.ie that, “There has been a significant increase in the number of investigations into crystal meth traffickers in the past year.”
