Montana Meth Project has a powerful anti-Meth campaign that gives you a glimpse of how Meth (and drugs in general, really) can transform you into something awful, doing things that no normal person would do.

The most powerful shot for me is a young woman having sex for money with a blank dead look on her face and the message,“15 bucks for sex isn’t normal. But on meth it is”.

Other ads show a hallucinating young man picking for bugs under his skin, a guy beating an old man for money, and a friend left for dead by another meth user.

The campaign was created by Venables Bell & Partners ad agency, San Francisco, USA.

yep, you are right bianca. It wont get to addicted users. It's more of a "see what happens if you use meth". The white logo says "Meth. Not even once", so that people wont be tempted to try.
