My Ecstasy Analysis

Most criminological research focuses on communities, where some assume and think that small towns are quite safe and crime-free environments. Meanwhile, using methamphetamine has become surrounded in rural parts of the country. In her book Methamphetamine: A Love Story, Rashi K. Shukla focused and enlightened on the understudied of poverty and drug abuse. Through her journey, she proves emotionally how meth has become the spotlight to the lives of some residents. In the process of uncovering how and why she participated in their drug using careers, Shukla tells how the lifestyle surrounding meth use becomes as addicting as the drug itself and highlights the unsustainability of meth addiction and the struggles

     Ecstasy, or 3, 4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine, was first synthesized and patented in 1914, by the German drug company Merck. The original purpose of the drug was to be an appetite suppressant, however in 1970 it was given to clinical depressed patients to open them up and talk about their feelings. Then in 1986, Ecstasy was determined to cause brain damage (http://faculity.washington.edu/chudler/mdma.html).

D-The patient reports he is not stable at his current dose to the point he want to taper off. He expressed the need to want to get off on methadone. This writer listened to the patient vent about issues in his personal life and problematic issues with his transportation to ensure he dose daily. This writer then proceeded to discuss with the patient as to why he had entered treatment, his aspiration for his recovery process, and addressing alternatives to his barriers. The patient then reports he hasn't used any illicit drugs for three days, at which this writer commended the patient. When asked about what strategies to used to refrain from illicit drugs, he reports keeping himself busy and continue to care for his parents. The patient was

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.

Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, ecstasy, MDMA—these are all names for a psychedelic drug that has a variety of uses. Although a strong stigma against this drug has developed over time due to its recreational use and abuse by society, scientists have experimented with using its properties for good. There is a lot of speculation on this drug and its practical application in the medical and psychological fields. This drug has created a definite riff in the scientific community as professionals struggle to seek the good in using the drug that outweighs the bad and how to use the drug in the safest, most effective way for the user and society.

Ecstasy, a word stemming from Late Latin extasis, meaning "entrancement, astonishment, insanity; any displacement or removal from the proper place." The definition is rather spot on given the side effects that the hallucinogenic drug produces. Ecstasy or MDMA (Methylenedioxymethamphetamine) originates from Germany when chemist Anton Köllisch was performing trial and error experiments with Amphetamine. At the time of its creation, Köllisch worked for pharmaceutical company Merck, who later in 1913 patents the drug. Although ecstasy is seen as a highly addictive drug with no purpose in our society today the drug was actually meant to sold as a appetite supplement. Many of Köllisch did not believe their coworker when he stated the reasoning

As we know in different countries they have different means to control and carry out their constitution (set of laws) for their people. But to some countries like Britain and England the ”Crown” is powerful! What does the crown means? When people see it how do they response to it? What makes it such a powerful symbol? In these countries that practice monarchy is the “crown” overbearing in which the power is unnecessary or abused.

In Allen Nathan's article in the Baseball Research Journal, the author states that “physicist Roger Tobin developed a systematic analysis showing how performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) taken by an already highly skilled player could produce a dramatic increase in home-run production” (Nathan 36). Nathan reviews the study by Roger Tobin and evaluates the accuracy of his results. They both examine how an amazing athlete can perform at the top of their level. The study that Roger Tobin completed is on the home-run numbers before and after the “Steroid Era” which is noted to take place from 1994 to 2003. During this era, the dramatic increase resulted in what some people say is the most fun time ever to

Amphetamines were first introduced in 1932 and were originally sold as drugs for nasal congestion that came in the form of an inhalant or tablet (Abadinsky, 2014). These types of drugs were the go-to for just about any health issue (Abadinsky, 2014). In the 1930s and 1940s, amphetamines were used medically as treatment for “schizophrenia, morphine addiction, low blood pressure, and caffeine and tobacco dependence” (Abadinsky, 2014, p. 216). Toward the end of the 1940s, the drugs were eventually used as stimulants, also known as analeptics (Abadinsky, 2014). Back then, amphetamines were available without a prescription, therefore anyone could purchase the drugs without a doctor’s permission, and that is how the popularity of the drugs began across the globe (Abadinsky, 2014).

I think Tracy will still get jealous as long as she gets the cool stuff like her friends are getting. Tracy got jealous because her friends bike was way better then what Tracy could've gotten. Tracy decided to make her own money by taking her neighbors pets out for a walk, and watering plants. A few days later, She counted the money she made and wasn't close enough to earn the bike she wanted like her best friend that came with a silver bell, sparkling pink spokes that made a loud whir sound.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi discusses the secret to happiness in his Ted Talk. We listen to his ideas about flow and how we achieve this feeling of ecstasy when we are in Flow. He talks about this composer who enters this different reality when he is conducting. Mihaly wondered what made his feel this rush of ecstasy. Not everyone feels this rush when they compose, so what was it in particular that made him feel as if he didn’t exist? To feel this level of ecstasy you must be involved and engaged in a process of creating and challenging yourself. When you are completely devoted to an engaging process you don’t have enough attention to left to monitor how is body feels. This in turn leads to a feeling of ecstasy. This happens to people who are

When one thinks back to a happy moments of their life, he or she is overcome with a feeling as if they are going to burst. What he felt was ecstasy. Over time, the word ecstasy has been modified, which can be seen through its etymology. Throughout this paper, ecstasy will be defined, explained, and compared to the words that we commonly use today. It will clarify the word by exploring its many meanings throughout history. I have chosen this word because I want to write about a word that displays happiness. I originally chose the word bliss, but I wanted a word that showed more intense emotion. Ecstasy, an overwhelming feeling of great happiness or joyful excitement.

The most interesting future research direction that comes to mind for me is the line between warm and hot. To clarify, it is a well-known psychological phenomenon that as temperatures rise, so does aggressive behavior. If physical warmth, as demonstrated in this study, increases interpersonal warmth, where does that effect stop and begin moving toward that increased aggression? I’d be interested to see if the manner in which the physical temperature is delivered also plays a factor. In this study, it was a more concentrated, subtle approach to priming temperature. Would turning the heat or air conditioning on high influence interpersonal warmth similarly? Instead of concentrating the physical temperature on one part of the body (the hand),

A drug is a substance that is taken to change/alter the way a person functions both physically and psychologically. It effects the way their mind/brain works, the way their body works and how they act. Some drugs are legal e.g. medicines, caffeine and alcohol or illegal e.g. marijuana, ecstasy and cocaine.
