Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to HCM

Crystal meth is a stimulant drug and it causes CNS stimulation. It is responsible for many neurological symptoms. The numbness on arms, palpitations, cold extremities, difficulty in breathing, sensation of bug crawling in hair etc symptoms are the features of anxiety only and it has been aggravated by meth. Meth also cause fluctuations in BP. Try to stop the use of meth and consult a good Psychiatrist for expert management of anxiety. Medicines like SSRIs are commonly used in anxiety.

Thanks
