I need someone to prepare a pamphlet that can be distributed at mental health clinics, public health centers, and physicians’ offices explaining the relationship between methamphetamine and mental health. Be sure to include the following in your pamphlet:
 

1. A definition of methamphetamines, their most common form and usages
2. How methamphetamines are abused 
Intoxication caused by methamphetamine use 
3. Long and short term effects of methamphetamine abuse
4. Symptoms and methods of withdrawal from methamphetamine use 
5. Psychiatric illnesses association with methamphetamine use 
6. Different ways disorders co-occur with methamphetamine (e.g., self-medications vs. meth-caused mental disorder)
7. Treatment options and prognoses for methamphetamine addiction.
