MDMA, or methylenedioxy-methylamphetamine, is a chemical that affects the release of serotonin in the brain and is a schedule I drug in the United states. Most commonly known as a part of the ecstasy pill or molly powder capsule, this crystalline drug is used at raves, parties, and clubs worldwide for a heightened sense of euphoria and a myriad of psychedelic effects. This substance is known as the love drug for it's ability to bring people closer together and lower normal social anxieties with its empatheogenic effects. In the last few years, more and more studies have been done on the valid psychiatric use for counseling and couples therapy. Here are some of the things found during the most recent of these studies.

One day you are living a beautiful and content lifestyle, and then next day you are lying on the floor dead without telling your friends and family you loved them. This could happen to you, if you do not avoid the dodgy lifestyle of a drug user and abuser. Every day drugs, such as: heroine are misused in-order to get a certain feeling called a high. The high is suppose to make you feel good or forget about the world’s everyday problems, but in most cases, the use of these powerful drugs end up hurting, or even killing the users.

Sarah Jacoby is the health feature writer for the Refinery29 website that seeks “To be the #1 new-media brand for smart, creative and stylish women everywhere”. For her article entitled "How These 4 Illegal Drugs Are Treating Mental Illness", Sarah seeks to inform her readers about nonconventional use of “illegal drugs” in the treatment of metal disorders. The article was written on the 21st of March 2015, and presents its readers with a number of scientific facts, done through research, while revealing her own personal feelings towards this new wave approach in medicine. The piece is well written, and allows for its readers to comment and give their own feeling/attitudes towards this new burgeoning topic in science.

Animals may be a strange why to look at what drugs do to people but the innocence people equate with animals shows that there may be a more primitive instinct that causes people to seek out drugs that alter their state of mind. The information in this book I think can definitely help policy

The use of pornogrpahy, reality TV, advertising, and social media impact the world in a way that no one could imagine, as humans rely so heavily on it now in order to feel a sense of happiness or pleasure, the thought of it being taken away now could be devastating. This could be said for drugs as well, both legal and illegal. In Brave New World, there is a drug called Soma that control people’s mind to always cause the user to be happy with no ends. Although there is not a drug that can always force a person to convey the emotion of happiness, there are drugs that can create similar effects as well as many other emotions. Brave New World shows people that are always happy, mostly due to the use of Soma, and the people always get what they want.

In the book, the drug soma is used to treat each and every uncomfortable feeling; a quote from the leader of the World State clarifies so when he states, “And if ever, by some unlucky chance, anything unpleasant should somehow happen, why, there’s always soma to give you a holiday from the facts.” (Huxley, 1932/1998, p. 237, para 5). The director himself blatantly states that soma gives individuals a break from the facts, the reality, and the truth. These substances give the characters in the book, and drug users of the modern day alike, a false sense of happiness. Shockingly, or maybe not so shockingly, “In 2013, an estimated 24.6 million Americans aged 12 or older—9.4 percent of the population—had used an illicit drug in the past month” (NIDA, 2015).

Psychedelic chemicals are currently banned for any medical use and strictly limited in research to determine if they can be used effectively to help patient. With one out of ten people in America suffering from depression and one out of four people struggling with some type of mental illness not using every tool available to use seem foolish to limit the tools used by psychotherapist. During the next few pages I will discuss earlier uses for MDMA in psychotherapy and whether these results support or contradict these uses. This will be broken up into four sections; a brief overview of effects, couples therapy, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and schizophrenia.

MDMA has not always been viewed in a negative light. Its health benefits can be traced back to the mid-twentieth century. With the homecoming of World War II soldiers, MDMA use was found to be more prevalent in society. The correlation between the homecoming of the soldiers and the spike in MDMA usage led scientists to research the situation further. The scientists found that MDMA held psycho-related benefits which was most prominent in those who suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Those suffering with PTSD had a hard time coping with their emotions. They felt more detached from others and had sporadic behaviors that could lead to verbal or physical abuse. In the wake of World War II, the discovery that a drug could lessen

Australia banned and censored a book, E for Ecstasy. I support the censorship of this book because it could contain information that may encourage the use of Ecstasy. The book might inform readers that people feel better or good when they take this illegal drug. Moreover, censoring this book is good for the public because the book could influence poor life choices like taking Ecstasy. If young teenagers and adults get their hands on this book, the outcome could end up disastrous with young people experimenting with Ecstasy or passing along information to others telling them to try Ecstasy. The book may also romanticize the idea of taking Ecstasy. For example, the author describes to the readers feeling stronger and happier when you take Ecstasy.

The conducted interviews heightened my knowledge and were all unequivocal which efficiently assisted in my comprehensive understanding of methamphetamine and its leads to major depressive disorder. This research process enabled me to integrate information from exceedingly credible sources and incredibly validated my research through providing real life experiences in regards to the various effects of methamphetamine. It was through this research method that empowered me to pose further questions and encapsulated the articles, which lead me to the fact that it is through the insufficient dopamine sources that significantly induces adverse effects as opposed to the initially desirable effects. These interviews were paramount to my outcome as it fundamentally underpinned the success of my research through expanding the reliability of my collated data. Nevertheless, some interviews lack depth and incorporated information which are commonly in online sources. The interview which addressed the psychological effects of methamphetamine was comprised of biased information which merely elucidated how methamphetamine leads to schizophrenia. The responses did not cover the scope of my topic as it demonstrated no correspondence to the aspect of my research and was therefore not applicable as it disregarded major depressive disorder and its link to methamphetamine.

Because the authors of the first article bombard the reader with word usage designed as a scare tactic, it ultimately has little effect. This rhetoric could end up backfiring on those who use the article in a drug awareness effort due to blatant lies and half-truths. Not to mention, the authors of the first article are researchers, therefore, the only responsibility is gathering the information without taking a direct stance on the issue. This limits the credibility of the authors, who work for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The author of the second article uses data from the same source as the previous, without the feeling of information shoved down the readers throat. The article has a more realistic approach because every reader can identify with the content. Although there may be some exaggerated points, the article speaks to what people know, therefore, more creditable. To the author’s credit, a recipient of nine teaching awards for drugs and human behavior, leading researcher in psychology and addictions, the Associate Professor of Clinical Science and Director of

Drugs have been around for a very long time. They are used for a variety of reasons. Some of these reasons include relaxation, socialization, curiosity, stress relief, or a form of escapism. However, most people don’t know the threats and danger that it can cause to the body. In this paper, we are going to examine the changes that happen inside the brain due to the effects of different drugs. We will look closely at how drugs such as hallucinogens, ecstasy, cocaine, heroin, and cannabis affect an individual psychologically. I will explain the origin of the drugs, how a person feels while on the drug, how the drugs

The future of the world is a place of thriving commerce and stability. Safety and happiness are at an all-time high, and no one suffers from depression or any other mental disorders. There are no more wars, as peace and harmony spread to almost every corner of the world. There is no sickness, and people are predestined to be happy and content in their social class. But if anything wrong accidentally occurs, there is a simple solution to the problem, which is soma. The use of soma totally shapes and controls the utopian society described in Huxley's novel Brave New World as well as symbolize Huxley's society as a whole. This pleasure drug is the answer to all of

The effects of soma are very “drug-like”. Soma is often used by the government to control or condition the members of Brave New World.The use of soma or drugs in Brave New World is different than today and the past’s usage of drugs. During the 1930s, substance abuse and addiction began to rise. In World War II, amphetamines were widely distributed to soldiers to fight fatigue and improve their mood and endurance. Marijuana and a large wave of opiate addiction began to rise greatly. Today, marijuana is the most common illicit drug used.An estimated $193 billion are spent on illicit drugs today. Like today, people during the 1930s used these drugs as “feel good” drugs. Substance abuse and addiction is still a rising problem in today's
