How Long Withdrawal Symptoms Of Crystal Meth Last?

hi i used crystal meth two nights ago for the second time over a seven year span. I was was wonder how long the withdrawal symptoms last for? I have experienced paranoia for no reason whatsoever, it is fairly acute and fleeting though. I also am experiencing a heightened sense of self-consciousness and guilt. Finally, I smell an ephedrine/cat urine smell coming from my sweat. I don't plan on using this drug again.

Hi,

The symptoms that you have described are not of withdrawal but of meth intoxication. Meth causes psychotic symptoms. The abnormal smell occurs when the metabolites of meth are excreted from the body. These symptoms will gradually improve as the meth level in the body falls. I am glad to know that you do not plan to use meth again as it is highly addictive and very harmful.

Best wishes.
