Is MDMA addictive?

[sviripicka]

I have never tryed any form of drug, so I wanted to ask if someone know can ecstasy make u addictive to it?



Thanks

[bonghed]

No it can't however u CAN possibly become addictive to the experience, most people that do pills do them again not because they're addicted but simply because they enjoy it.


People can be addicted to anything, infact their is probably a man that is addicted to licking monkeies asses.

MDMA is not an addictive drug, mainly because the after so many times
of taking it, the hangover starts getting worse and the experience less
appealing.

Thanks for the replyes..



Also I wanted to know why if this drug is not addictive drug and for
example MJ is addictive drug, ectasy is placed in one of the more heavy
drugs and MJ is placed in one of the "light" drugs..



I know that ectasy contains amphetamines which can make u addicted to
them, also I know that u can became addicted to speed which also
contains amphetamines.. What do u think about this?



Are there some chances to die from first use of MDMA, because I know
that if u don't drink enough water for example on some party u can die
from dehydration, can u die from some other effect of this drug?



Sorry for my english..

i think about 1 in every 100,000 people could be allergic to mdma which could kill you but its very unlikely


mdma is not addictive but ecstacycan bedue to the amphetamine that pretty much most pills in the uk have in them


i used to an xtc addict and let me tell you its hell when you come off them as long as you dont do them too often you shouldent get addicted but at some points i was taking about 2 to 5 a day for up to 5 out of 7 days in a week which im very sure was extramly bad for me


btw amphetamine is the real name for speed without going into chem names

[enquirewithin]

Most 'ecstasy' does not contain amphetamine. It s chemical name is
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, which means it is chemically related
to amphetamines but as a drug the effects are very different. Unlike,
speed, it doesn't really even work taken on consecutive days. People
often thin k that E conatins speed because the more you take it, the
'amphetamine-like' the effects become.



Methmaphetamine is much more neurotixic that MDMA, but people survive.

Although XTC is not physically addicting, it is as said something that feels very good and thatSWIYprobably would like try again.Many people which frequently use XTC, experience that they start thinking a lot about taking XTCand everything that has to do with it; party's, music, rolling, etc. There are many people who use XTC very frequently. After prolonged use, it can be very hard to quit (mentally) or enjoying parties without XTC. Especially when the person has friends in the scene which still use frequently. XTCcan bea very social experience.

sorry i didnt know there was not usually speed in xtc i was just going by the results oflab tested pills which suggest most contain some kind of md** style drug and speed


and of corse it made sense to me as speed seams to be cheaper to produce it would make sense to put a little less md** type drugg into a pill and add some speed as it would increase the profit margin as after all i would geuss alot of party drugproducers are after profitsEdited by: psycospungebob

Well, i have to say that Swim was (mentally) addicted about 13
years ago, back in 1992.(The era of the wonderfull and never
beaten EVA's).
She started(like most people) to take them on the acidhouse
parties but after a while also @home with bf or friends.
She used to take E's on a(almost) daily bases,as a reward for
doing simple tasks like the hovering or the washing up.
That way she thought she could control the situation a bit.This
went on for a few months.
Unfortunately things got worse and Swim ended up in hospital
with a severe liverintoxination that almost let to a
livertransplant.You may thing that Swim's is talking bullshit but
unfortunately Swim is telling the truth here.
She then didn't touch them for more than 10 years before she
eventualy did try them again. Now she is in control and takes
them now and then,(4-5 times a year).Last time was exactly a
year ago.

All who say that it isn't addictive are wrong. Everything has a chance of addiction, from potatoes, to computers to drugs. Most of these addictions are mental, the love for that XTC-feeling for example. An addiction to drugs is not an addiction to the drug itself most of the time, but an addiction to the rush, the thing that makes you feel diffirent than you where before. People who are uncertain in life, have problems and such, can be a nice target for such addictions.

I also have to say that I immediatly fell in love with E the first time I tried it. And though I'm not an addict, I try to experience my best every time and as much and possible and as my body allows.
