an addict loses the ability to make a rational choice about whether or not to use drugs or alcohol, he or she is addicted.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Addiction is a condition whereby a person experiences an irresistible urge to seek out and use drugs or alcohol despite negative physical and mental consequences.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Addiction is usually accompanied by physical and psychological dependence on the drug and the person suffers withdrawal symptoms when the drug is rapidly decreased or stopped.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Narconon's Approach<\/h4>\r\n <p>Narconon does not believe that addiction is a disease, that it is incurable or that a person must \"live with it\" for the rest of his life. In the experience of Narconon staff and graduates, it is possible to fully recover from addiction and enjoy a productive, drug-free life.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>To understand addiction, you must first understand drugs\u2014what they are, the signs and symptoms of their use as well as the short-term and long-term effects of using drugs.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <p><strong>Addicts will often deny their addiction.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>What is Ecstasy?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY IS A SYNTHETIC, PSYCHOACTIVE DRUG possessing stimulant and hallucinogenic properties.<\/strong> It was originally developed by Merck pharmaceutical company in 1912.

And while MDMA itself can produce harmful effects, what is called Ecstasy today can contain a wide mixture of substances\u2014from LSD, cocaine, heroin, amphetamine and methamphetamine, to rat poison caffeine, dog deworming medicine, etc.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>Despite the cute logos dealers put on the pills, what makes Ecstasy particularly dangerous is that a user never really knows what he is taking. The dangers are increased when users increase the dose, seeking a previous high but not knowing they may be taking an entirely different combination of drugs.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Where Does Ecstasy Come From?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>HIDDEN ILLEGAL LABORATORIES OPERATING THROUGHOUT WESTERN EUROPE, primarily in the Netherlands and Belgium, manufacture significant quantities of the drug<\/strong> in tablet, capsule or powder form. Although the vast majority of MDMA is produced in Europe, a limited number of MDMA labs operate in the United States.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>In recent years, members of organized crime groups from Russia forged relationships with Western European traffickers and gained control over a significant share of the European market. These syndicates are currently the primary source for US distribution groups.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Overseas, MDMA trafficking organizations smuggle the drug in shipments of ten thousand or more tablets via express-mail services, couriers aboard commercial airline flights or, more recently, through air freight shipments from several major European cities to cities in the United States.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Marketing and Branding<\/h4>\r\n <p>MDMA traffickers consistently use brand names and logos as marketing tools and to distinguish their product from that of competitors. The logos are produced to coincide with holidays or special events. Among the more popular logos are butterflies, lightning bolts and four-leaf clovers.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>How It Is Used<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY IS FREQUENTLY USED IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER DRUGS.<\/strong> However, it is rarely consumed with alcohol, as alcohol is believed to diminish its effects. It is most often distributed at night clubs, rock concerts and at late-night parties called raves. As the rave and club scene expands to metropolitan and suburban areas, MDMA use and distribution are increasing as well.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>MDMA is most often available in tablet form and is usually taken orally. It is also available as a powder and is sometimes snorted and occasionally smoked, but rarely injected. Its effects last approximately four to six hours. Users of the drug say it produces profoundly positive feelings, empathy for others, elimination of anxiety and extreme relaxation.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>MDMA is also said to suppress the need to eat, drink or sleep, enabling users to endure two- to three-day parties. Consequently, MDMA use sometimes results in severe dehydration or exhaustion.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Consequences of Using Ecstasy<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY SMOTHERS THE NATURAL ALARM SIGNALS GIVEN OUT BY THE BODY.<\/strong> As a result, after taking the drug, an individual risks going beyond his physical limitations and endurance. For example, a person on Ecstasy may not realize that he has become overheated and can faint or even die of heatstroke.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A study by the University of Texas Center for Social Work Research found that the most frequently reported long-term effects of Ecstasy included depression and a reduced ability to concentrate. The researchers also found repeated use of Ecstasy to be associated with sleep, mood and anxiety disturbances; tremors or twitches; and memory problems.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"effects-grid\">\r\n <div class=\"effects-card\">\r\n <h4>Short-term Effects<\/h4>\r\n <ul class=\"effects-list\">\r\n <li>Impaired judgment<\/li>\r\n <li>False sense of affection<\/li>\r\n <li>Confusion<\/li>\r\n <li>Depression<\/li>\r\n <li>Sleep problems<\/li>\r\n <li>Severe anxiety<\/li>\r\n <li>Paranoia<\/li>\r\n <li>Drug cravings<\/li>\r\n <li>Muscle tension<\/li>\r\n <li>Faintness and chills or swelling<\/li>\r\n <li>Involuntary teeth clenching<\/li>\r\n <li>Blurred vision<\/li>\r\n <li>Nausea<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"effects-card\">\r\n <h4>Long-term Effects<\/h4>\r\n <ul class=\"effects-list\">\r\n <li>Long-lasting brain damage affecting thought and memory<\/li>\r\n <li>Damage to portions of the brain that regulate critical functions, such as learning, sleep and emotion<\/li>\r\n <li>It is as if the brain switchboard was torn apart, then rewired backwards<\/li>\r\n <li>Degenerated nerve branches and nerve endings<\/li>\r\n <li>Depression, anxiety, memory loss<\/li>\r\n <li>Kidney failure<\/li>\r\n <li>Hemorrhaging<\/li>\r\n <li>Psychosis<\/li>\r\n <li>Cardiovascular collapse<\/li>\r\n <li>Convulsions<\/li>\r\n <li>Death<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Street Names<\/h2>\r\n <div class=\"street-names\">\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Cadillac<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Adam<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Beans<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">California Sunrise<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Clarity<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">E<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Essence<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Elephants<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Eve<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Hug<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Hug Drug<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Scooby Snacks<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Love Pill<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Lover's Speed<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Roll<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Snowball<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">X<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">XE<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">XTC<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Effects of Ecstasy Use<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>WHILE THE SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF ECSTASY MIGHT SEEM LIKE A LOT OF FUN to some na\u00efve users, the drug is doing its destructive work from the first moment it is ingested.<\/strong> A surprising amount of damage can be quickly accumulated, including, of course, addiction. Some people become addicted to Ecstasy quite rapidly. Cravings to use more Ecstasy can drive a person back to use it again and again, even when they realize how much it is hurting them. One survey showed that nearly half the young people who reported Ecstasy use also showed signs of addiction.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>What is harder to see is lasting psychological harm from taking Ecstasy. Recent research has shown that even a short exposure can cause problems that last for several weeks, such as memory loss, problems learning, confusion, anxiety and depression. Heavy users may also experience paranoia and sleep problems.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Unable to feel pleasure<\/h4>\r\n <p>While the reason for taking the drug is the sensations that users consider pleasurable, it is ironic that one effect of Ecstasy use is to disable a person from feeling pleasure from normal events. This may help to drive addiction as the person feels depressed and miserable when he is not high.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>If Ecstasy is used repeatedly in a short time span, the damaging effects can be even more severe than if it is used only occasionally.

The psychological dependence occurs because a person gets used to, and desires more and more, the effects of the release of hormones it causes. This psychological dependence then gives rise to an additional physical dependence in which the brain itself becomes accustomed to the chemical reaction that Ecstasy produces, at which point the person is unable to function without frequent doses of Ecstasy.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>But even if a user doesn't become addicted, the following very real dangers exist:<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-boxes\">\r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 1<\/h4>\r\n <p>By 1995, less than ten percent of the Ecstasy pills on the market were pure MDMA. Today's Ecstasy user is usually taking a mix of a wide variety of drugs and often toxic substances.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 2<\/h4>\r\n <p>A person has to continually increase the amount of the drug he takes in order to feel the same effects. Users say the effect of Ecstasy is greatly reduced after the first dose. And as a person takes more of the drug, the negative effects also increase. Because the desired effect from using the drug diminishes, a person often then tries other drugs that are even more dangerous.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 3<\/h4>\r\n <p>Users feel there is sometimes a need to use other drugs, such as heroin or cocaine to help cope with the mental and physical pain that results after one comes down from Ecstasy; 92 percent of those who take Ecstasy also use other, even harder drugs.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 4<\/h4>\r\n <p>The false idea that a person only feels good with Ecstasy leads to a desire to take it more often than just at raves and techno parties. As with other stimulant drugs, people continue to take Ecstasy despite experiencing unpleasant effects.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"testimonial\">\r\n <h4>Testimonials - Liz and Ann<\/h4>\r\n <blockquote>\r\n \"At a rave party, I saw a guy who had stuffed himself with Ecstasy repeat for hours, 'I am an orange Don't peel me. I am an orange don't peel me.' Another guy thought he was a fly and wouldn't stop hitting his head against a window.\"\r\n <\/blockquote>\r\n <cite>\u2014Liz<\/cite>\r\n \r\n <blockquote>\r\n \"Ecstasy made me crazy. One day I bit glass, just like I would have bitten an apple. I had to have my mouth full of pieces of glass to realize what was happening to me. Another time, I tore rags with my teeth for an hour.\"\r\n <\/blockquote>\r\n <cite>\u2014Ann<\/cite>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Molly: Another Form of Ecstasy<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>MOLLY (SHORT FOR MOLECULE) IS A NICKNAME FOR A FORM OF ECSTASY.<\/strong> It is promoted as a pure crystalline form of MDMA (Ecstasy), although it may contain other drugs as well. In the summer of 2013, a few well-known singers referred to the drug either in song lyrics or from the stage. When two people were suspected of dying after using Molly at a music festival in New York, this drug suddenly hit the spotlight. The last day of the music festival was cancelled out of concern for the drugs being used there.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A person using MDMA in any form is at risk for an overheating death. MDMA is a powerful stimulant that increases heart rate and body temperature. In a nightclub environment, users often have a chill room available, with plenty of cold water for sale.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>They can cool down before they go back to dancing to prevent this overheating. But in an open-air environment in the summertime, a person may not be able to keep his body temperature down.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A dose of Molly lasts for four to six hours, which may lead some partygoers or festival attendees to redose repeatedly.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <h3>Identifying Molly Use<\/h3>\r\n <p><strong>NIGHTCLUBS, MUSIC FESTIVALS AND OTHER MUSIC VENUES seem custom-built for drug use.<\/strong> In this environment, even a person who doesn't normally use drugs might indulge because everyone around him seems to be having a good time. But these strong stimulants and psychedelic drugs have disastrous effects on some people.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Molly is a strong stimulant that increases body temperature and causes one's heart to beat faster. The reaction to this stimulation can be seizures, high fever, organ breakdown and death.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>One young woman had to be brought back to life twice. Her pulse was 165 beats a minute at one point and her temperature was 108 degrees. Severe physical and mental harm may be the result of what was just an attempt to party the night away.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"testimonial\">\r\n <h4>Testimonial - Lynn<\/h4>\r\n <blockquote>\r\n \"I hear a lot of people talking about Ecstasy, calling it a fun, harmless drug. All I can think is 'If they only knew.'\r\n \r\n In five months, I went from living somewhat responsibly while pursuing my dream, to a person who didn't care about a thing\u2014and the higher I got, the deeper I sank into a dark, lonely place. When I did sleep, I had nightmares and the shakes. I had pasty skin, a throbbing head and the beginnings of feeling paranoid, but ignored it all, thinking it was normal. Until the night I thought I was dying.\r\n \r\n Ecstasy took my strength, my motivation, my dreams, my friends, my apartment, my money and most of all, my sanity. I worry about my future and my health every day. I have many mountains ahead of me, but I plan to keep climbing because I'm one of the lucky ones.\"\r\n <\/blockquote>\r\n <cite>\u2014Lynn<\/cite>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Addictiveness and Risky Behavior<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>MDMA IS ADDICTIVE for some people the first few times they use it.<\/strong> Other people, after they use it just on weekends to party, may soon be driven to use it during the week because of the crushing depression that shows up a few days later. This kind of behavior quickly spirals into full-fledged addiction.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A person using MDMA, or Molly, may use poor judgment when it comes to sexual encounters. Because of the artificial sense of empathy the drug creates, some men at clubs or music festivals will give the drug to women so the women will feel like they love them and want to have sex with them. This feeling will be absent the next day, but if the woman becomes addicted, she will be driven to repeat this behavior.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>As with any addiction, an obsession to get and abuse Molly will drag a person's entire life down. He is likely to abandon interests and goals and seek more drugs instead.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>What Are Drugs?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>DRUGS ARE ESSENTIALLY POISONS.<\/strong> The amount taken determines the effect.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A small amount acts as a stimulant (speeds you up). A greater amount acts as a sedative (slows you down). An even larger amount poisons and can kill.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>This is true of any drug. Only the amount needed to achieve the effect differs.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>But many drugs have another liability: they directly affect the mind. They can distort the user's perception of what is happening around him. As a result, the person's actions may be odd, irrational, inappropriate and even destructive.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Drugs also block off all sensations, the desirable ones along with the unwanted. So while providing short-term relief from pain, they also wipe out ability and alertness and muddy a person's thinking.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Medicines are drugs that are intended to make your body work better by speeding up, slowing down or changing something about the way the body works. Sometimes they are necessary. But medicines are still drugs: they act as stimulants or sedatives and too much can kill you. If medicines are abused, they can be as dangerous as illegal drugs.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>About Narconon<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>NARCONON (MEANING \"NO NARCOTICS\") drug- and alcohol-rehabilitation program is open to all who desire to end their addictions and lead productive, drug-free lives.<\/strong> The Narconon program not only addresses the debilitating effects of drug abuse on the mind and body, but also helps resolve why a person turned to drugs in the first place.

an addict loses the ability to make a rational choice about whether or not to use drugs or alcohol, he or she is addicted.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Addiction is a condition whereby a person experiences an irresistible urge to seek out and use drugs or alcohol despite negative physical and mental consequences.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Addiction is usually accompanied by physical and psychological dependence on the drug and the person suffers withdrawal symptoms when the drug is rapidly decreased or stopped.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Narconon's Approach<\/h4>\r\n <p>Narconon does not believe that addiction is a disease, that it is incurable or that a person must \"live with it\" for the rest of his life. In the experience of Narconon staff and graduates, it is possible to fully recover from addiction and enjoy a productive, drug-free life.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>To understand addiction, you must first understand drugs\u2014what they are, the signs and symptoms of their use as well as the short-term and long-term effects of using drugs.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <p><strong>Addicts will often deny their addiction.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>What is Ecstasy?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY IS A SYNTHETIC, PSYCHOACTIVE DRUG possessing stimulant and hallucinogenic properties.<\/strong> It was originally developed by Merck pharmaceutical company in 1912.

And while MDMA itself can produce harmful effects, what is called Ecstasy today can contain a wide mixture of substances\u2014from LSD, cocaine, heroin, amphetamine and methamphetamine, to rat poison caffeine, dog deworming medicine, etc.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>Despite the cute logos dealers put on the pills, what makes Ecstasy particularly dangerous is that a user never really knows what he is taking. The dangers are increased when users increase the dose, seeking a previous high but not knowing they may be taking an entirely different combination of drugs.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Where Does Ecstasy Come From?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>HIDDEN ILLEGAL LABORATORIES OPERATING THROUGHOUT WESTERN EUROPE, primarily in the Netherlands and Belgium, manufacture significant quantities of the drug<\/strong> in tablet, capsule or powder form. Although the vast majority of MDMA is produced in Europe, a limited number of MDMA labs operate in the United States.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>In recent years, members of organized crime groups from Russia forged relationships with Western European traffickers and gained control over a significant share of the European market. These syndicates are currently the primary source for US distribution groups.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Overseas, MDMA trafficking organizations smuggle the drug in shipments of ten thousand or more tablets via express-mail services, couriers aboard commercial airline flights or, more recently, through air freight shipments from several major European cities to cities in the United States.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Marketing and Branding<\/h4>\r\n <p>MDMA traffickers consistently use brand names and logos as marketing tools and to distinguish their product from that of competitors. The logos are produced to coincide with holidays or special events. Among the more popular logos are butterflies, lightning bolts and four-leaf clovers.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>How It Is Used<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY IS FREQUENTLY USED IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER DRUGS.<\/strong> However, it is rarely consumed with alcohol, as alcohol is believed to diminish its effects. It is most often distributed at night clubs, rock concerts and at late-night parties called raves. As the rave and club scene expands to metropolitan and suburban areas, MDMA use and distribution are increasing as well.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>MDMA is most often available in tablet form and is usually taken orally. It is also available as a powder and is sometimes snorted and occasionally smoked, but rarely injected. Its effects last approximately four to six hours. Users of the drug say it produces profoundly positive feelings, empathy for others, elimination of anxiety and extreme relaxation.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>MDMA is also said to suppress the need to eat, drink or sleep, enabling users to endure two- to three-day parties. Consequently, MDMA use sometimes results in severe dehydration or exhaustion.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Consequences of Using Ecstasy<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY SMOTHERS THE NATURAL ALARM SIGNALS GIVEN OUT BY THE BODY.<\/strong> As a result, after taking the drug, an individual risks going beyond his physical limitations and endurance. For example, a person on Ecstasy may not realize that he has become overheated and can faint or even die of heatstroke.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A study by the University of Texas Center for Social Work Research found that the most frequently reported long-term effects of Ecstasy included depression and a reduced ability to concentrate. The researchers also found repeated use of Ecstasy to be associated with sleep, mood and anxiety disturbances; tremors or twitches; and memory problems.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"effects-grid\">\r\n <div class=\"effects-card\">\r\n <h4>Short-term Effects<\/h4>\r\n <ul class=\"effects-list\">\r\n <li>Impaired judgment<\/li>\r\n <li>False sense of affection<\/li>\r\n <li>Confusion<\/li>\r\n <li>Depression<\/li>\r\n <li>Sleep problems<\/li>\r\n <li>Severe anxiety<\/li>\r\n <li>Paranoia<\/li>\r\n <li>Drug cravings<\/li>\r\n <li>Muscle tension<\/li>\r\n <li>Faintness and chills or swelling<\/li>\r\n <li>Involuntary teeth clenching<\/li>\r\n <li>Blurred vision<\/li>\r\n <li>Nausea<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"effects-card\">\r\n <h4>Long-term Effects<\/h4>\r\n <ul class=\"effects-list\">\r\n <li>Long-lasting brain damage affecting thought and memory<\/li>\r\n <li>Damage to portions of the brain that regulate critical functions, such as learning, sleep and emotion<\/li>\r\n <li>It is as if the brain switchboard was torn apart, then rewired backwards<\/li>\r\n <li>Degenerated nerve branches and nerve endings<\/li>\r\n <li>Depression, anxiety, memory loss<\/li>\r\n <li>Kidney failure<\/li>\r\n <li>Hemorrhaging<\/li>\r\n <li>Psychosis<\/li>\r\n <li>Cardiovascular collapse<\/li>\r\n <li>Convulsions<\/li>\r\n <li>Death<\/li>\r\n <\/ul>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Street Names<\/h2>\r\n <div class=\"street-names\">\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Cadillac<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Adam<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Beans<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">California Sunrise<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Clarity<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">E<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Essence<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Elephants<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Eve<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Hug<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Hug Drug<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Scooby Snacks<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Love Pill<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Lover's Speed<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Roll<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">Snowball<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">X<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">XE<\/div>\r\n <div class=\"street-name\">XTC<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Effects of Ecstasy Use<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>WHILE THE SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF ECSTASY MIGHT SEEM LIKE A LOT OF FUN to some na\u00efve users, the drug is doing its destructive work from the first moment it is ingested.<\/strong> A surprising amount of damage can be quickly accumulated, including, of course, addiction. Some people become addicted to Ecstasy quite rapidly. Cravings to use more Ecstasy can drive a person back to use it again and again, even when they realize how much it is hurting them. One survey showed that nearly half the young people who reported Ecstasy use also showed signs of addiction.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>What is harder to see is lasting psychological harm from taking Ecstasy. Recent research has shown that even a short exposure can cause problems that last for several weeks, such as memory loss, problems learning, confusion, anxiety and depression. Heavy users may also experience paranoia and sleep problems.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"highlight-box\">\r\n <h4>Unable to feel pleasure<\/h4>\r\n <p>While the reason for taking the drug is the sensations that users consider pleasurable, it is ironic that one effect of Ecstasy use is to disable a person from feeling pleasure from normal events. This may help to drive addiction as the person feels depressed and miserable when he is not high.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <p>If Ecstasy is used repeatedly in a short time span, the damaging effects can be even more severe than if it is used only occasionally. It is common for those attending dance parties to take multiple pills at once or to take pill after pill to keep the sensation going.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>Imaginary Love Pill<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>ECSTASY IS OFTEN CALLED THE LOVE PILL because it heightens perceptions of color and sound and supposedly amplifies sensations when a person touches or caresses another, particularly during sex.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>But Ecstasy often contains hallucinogens, drugs that act on the mind and cause people to see or feel things that are not really there. Hallucinogens can throw a person into a scary or sad experience from the past, where he gets stuck without even realizing it.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>The image of Ecstasy as a love pill is one of many lies that are spread about the drug.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Ecstasy is emotionally damaging and users often suffer depression, confusion, severe anxiety, paranoia, psychotic behavior and other psychological problems.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"testimonial\">\r\n <h4>Testimonial - Megan<\/h4>\r\n <blockquote>\r\n \"Luckily, I am alive, but I'm left with the days, months and years after the trauma.

The psychological dependence occurs because a person gets used to, and desires more and more, the effects of the release of hormones it causes. This psychological dependence then gives rise to an additional physical dependence in which the brain itself becomes accustomed to the chemical reaction that Ecstasy produces, at which point the person is unable to function without frequent doses of Ecstasy.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>But even if a user doesn't become addicted, the following very real dangers exist:<\/p>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-boxes\">\r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 1<\/h4>\r\n <p>By 1995, less than ten percent of the Ecstasy pills on the market were pure MDMA. Today's Ecstasy user is usually taking a mix of a wide variety of drugs and often toxic substances.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 2<\/h4>\r\n <p>A person has to continually increase the amount of the drug he takes in order to feel the same effects. Users say the effect of Ecstasy is greatly reduced after the first dose. And as a person takes more of the drug, the negative effects also increase. Because the desired effect from using the drug diminishes, a person often then tries other drugs that are even more dangerous.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 3<\/h4>\r\n <p>Users feel there is sometimes a need to use other drugs, such as heroin or cocaine to help cope with the mental and physical pain that results after one comes down from Ecstasy; 92 percent of those who take Ecstasy also use other, even harder drugs.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"danger-box\">\r\n <h4>DANGER NO. 4<\/h4>\r\n <p>The false idea that a person only feels good with Ecstasy leads to a desire to take it more often than just at raves and techno parties. As with other stimulant drugs, people continue to take Ecstasy despite experiencing unpleasant effects.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <div class=\"testimonial\">\r\n <h4>Testimonials - Liz and Ann<\/h4>\r\n <blockquote>\r\n \"At a rave party, I saw a guy who had stuffed himself with Ecstasy repeat for hours, 'I am an orange Don't peel me.

In the summer of 2013, a few well-known singers referred to the drug either in song lyrics or from the stage. When two people were suspected of dying after using Molly at a music festival in New York, this drug suddenly hit the spotlight. The last day of the music festival was cancelled out of concern for the drugs being used there.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A person using MDMA in any form is at risk for an overheating death. MDMA is a powerful stimulant that increases heart rate and body temperature. In a nightclub environment, users often have a chill room available, with plenty of cold water for sale.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>They can cool down before they go back to dancing to prevent this overheating. But in an open-air environment in the summertime, a person may not be able to keep his body temperature down.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A dose of Molly lasts for four to six hours, which may lead some partygoers or festival attendees to redose repeatedly.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <h3>Identifying Molly Use<\/h3>\r\n <p><strong>NIGHTCLUBS, MUSIC FESTIVALS AND OTHER MUSIC VENUES seem custom-built for drug use.<\/strong> In this environment, even a person who doesn't normally use drugs might indulge because everyone around him seems to be having a good time. But these strong stimulants and psychedelic drugs have disastrous effects on some people.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Molly is a strong stimulant that increases body temperature and causes one's heart to beat faster. The reaction to this stimulation can be seizures, high fever, organ breakdown and death.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>One young woman had to be brought back to life twice. Her pulse was 165 beats a minute at one point and her temperature was 108 degrees.

This kind of behavior quickly spirals into full-fledged addiction.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A person using MDMA, or Molly, may use poor judgment when it comes to sexual encounters. Because of the artificial sense of empathy the drug creates, some men at clubs or music festivals will give the drug to women so the women will feel like they love them and want to have sex with them. This feeling will be absent the next day, but if the woman becomes addicted, she will be driven to repeat this behavior.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>As with any addiction, an obsession to get and abuse Molly will drag a person's entire life down. He is likely to abandon interests and goals and seek more drugs instead.<\/p>\r\n <\/section>\r\n\r\n \r\n <section class=\"section\">\r\n <h2>What Are Drugs?<\/h2>\r\n <p><strong>DRUGS ARE ESSENTIALLY POISONS.<\/strong> The amount taken determines the effect.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>A small amount acts as a stimulant (speeds you up). A greater amount acts as a sedative (slows you down). An even larger amount poisons and can kill.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>This is true of any drug. Only the amount needed to achieve the effect differs.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>But many drugs have another liability: they directly affect the mind. They can distort the user's perception of what is happening around him. As a result, the person's actions may be odd, irrational, inappropriate and even destructive.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Drugs also block off all sensations, the desirable ones along with the unwanted. So while providing short-term relief from pain, they also wipe out ability and alertness and muddy a person's thinking.<\/p>\r\n \r\n <p>Medicines are drugs that are intended to make your body work better by speeding up, slowing down or changing something about the way the body works. Sometimes they are necessary. But medicines are still drugs: they act as stimulants or sedatives and too much can kill you.
