As far as I know, MDMA gradulaly saps your seratonin as an after effect of producing an over abundance of it... Apparently your body gets used to the overabundance of seratoninn and stops producing it.... This is just from recolection...

I used escstacy lightly between a period of 1989-1992 and then very heavily between 1994-1996 or so... Afterwards, many people I knew of complained of emotional problems that they had not previously had.

However... Its all a guess really, I took ecstacy because I wanted to escape the dread of reality, and it seemed to work for that... So I definitely had problems long before my ecstacy use. Has it caused damage to me in some way? Surely, but to what extent I dont know... Every drug perscribed or not has its side effects some of which are long standing... Lets all consider the chemicals we injest every day just to feel 'normal'.

In my experience most people who exhibit a need to take street drugs on a constant basis in order to have 'fun' have some deep rooted underlying problems that they may not be willing to recognise... just my 2 cents...

ps. most modern day ecstacy sold is not pure ecstacy, pure ecstacy use really went out around 1994 or so, and they started cutting it with ketamine or heroin or whatever else that might produce some intense feeling... they commonly use vitamin b12 as just a plain 'filler'....
