Other physical effects include reduced appetite, dilated pupils, talkativeness, agitation and sleep disturbance. Higher doses cause anxiety, panic, headaches, aggression, paranoia, heart problems.
They distort the user's perceptions of reality and lead to increased activity, talking or laughing, sweating, etc. Drug effects can include a sense of emotional and psychological euphoria and well-being. Users may see or hear things that do not actually exist. In extreme cases, this can result in dangerous behaviour that can put the user and others at great risk.
