Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hey, my brother has been off meth for 50 days and now he started eating so much. I know if he gained lots of weight he might come back to meth. Gaining weight is so common for all who quit meth. Is there anyway to stop that considering all problems he has while off the meth?
That's doing well. Methamphetamine is a difficult addiction. It doesn't have a specific withdrawal unlike alcohol narcotics, or sedatives; people just miss the effect of the drug. Doing other things and realizing the benefits of not taking a very dangerous, harmful drug. But there is not a substitute for it nor pills that lower cravings.
