BEACHSIDE TEEN TREATMENT CENTERMDMA ADDICTION

MDMA or ecstasy, also known as ‘club drug’, is widespread at teen parties and is also popular among drug abusers. MDMA / ecstasy is a laboratory formulated chemical that affects emotional sensitivity and energy enhancement in the body. It is available in capsule form as brand ‘Molly’. Addiction to this drug can be highly dangerous for both emotional and physical health.

What is MDMA?

MDMA (chemical name 3,4 methylenedioxy-methamphetamine) is an illicit drug, and known by its more common name ‘ecstacy’. As a stimulant and a hallucinogen, MDMA instigates release of serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in the brain that acts as mood elevators and offers psychedelic effects. This drug is a temporary antidepressant that fills up the body with short term energy and emotional hyper sensitivity.

MDMA is a fairly newer drug on the market. Hence, the most effective addiction cures and treatment methods are still being researched. Thankfully, its withdrawal symptoms are not as extreme as those of heroin. However, MDMA still has its own challenges that need to be addressed and controlled.
