Synopsis This is an articulate and compelling exploration of a highly addictive substance. It looks at how crystal meth addiction has become a problem of genuinely epidemic proportions. Crystal meth, or methamphetamine, is fast becoming one of the most abused drugs in the Western world. It is an alarmingly seductive substance - it produces an instant high that fills the users will ebullience and confidence. But there is a much darker side to this so-called designer drug - its side-effects include depression, anxiety, irrational, uncontrollable, and even psychotic behaviour. "Iced" argues that the crystal meth epidemic is turning into more than just a medical or law enforcement challenge, and that the drug is becoming a social pathogen. It explores every aspect of this 21st century epidemic - from the experiences of doctors and police officers to the stories of addicts and former addicts - in the hope that with a greater understanding of the dangers, we will be better equipped to stem the tide of this seductive killer.
