Ecstasy is a drug that usually comes in pill form and is known as X,E or Adam. this pill's main chemical component is MDMA (Methylene-dioxy-N-methylamphetamine' or'Methylenedioxymethamphetamine'). This pill does fill the body and mind with an extreme feeling of euphoria when taken. However it has devastating effects on the human brain. In fact MDMA effects the chemical level of Serotonin in our brains which leads to mood swings and aggressive behavior. It also causes people to be confused and detached from reality. In long term users it is common to experience severe confusion, memory loss and depression (this can happen weeks month and even years after taking the drug, but will not happen when under the influence of the substance) . This harmful chemical also adversely effects blood pressure and pulse rate (which in some cases may lead to death).

It is also important to note that the ecstasy one gets on the streets may not be composed of only MDMA which in many cases may increase ones risk of overdose, unpleasant side effects and future mental disease.

Note everyone reacts differently to Ecstasy (in terms of side effects possibility of overdosing, and future mental illnesses )
