IS Fainting Due To Meth Intake A Symptom Of Something Bigger?

Hi I have been doing meth on and off for about six years and I just went on a binge over the last couple months and I ve been having a super hard time getting off of it this time because every time I m off for over a day I cannot stand up without fainting. I eat and drink and sleep. But the only way I know to avoid fainting when I stand up is to use more. Is this fainting a symptom of something bigger?

Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

I like to inform you that you crossed the danger line and there is need for habit reversal from meth. Presence of persistent fainting clearly indicates there is permanent changes in your brain specially autonomic nervous system. In other words it can be said that persistent fainting is indicative of pending risk to your mental as well as physical health.

I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
