After methamphetamine was introduced in our country in 2009, the prevalence of its use has increased rapidly in recent years. The fact that methamphetamine use has become the main reason for applications to addiction centers has pushed us ali to have information about this substance. In the first part of the book, information about what methamphetamine is and how addiction treatment is carried out is given, and in the second part, the transcripts of the interviews with 13 people who are addicted to methamphetamine or relatives of addicts are included. The main purpose of including the interviews in the book is to reflect the experiences of addicts during treatment and to reveal how methamphetamine use affects daily life, social life, family and work life. We hope that this book will be beneficial for individuals struggling with methamphetamine addiction, their relatives, and psychiatrists working in this field.
