This booklet describes "crank," a street name for methamphetamine.
Abstract
The reasons methamphetamine users give for taking the drug are disputed with the truth of how the drug affects the user's body and mind. The booklet describes the forms in which the finished drug is sold as well as the ways it is ingested. The physical and mental dangers of using crank are stressed as well as the societal damage caused by crank use. Resources to help drug users are briefly listed.
