What can be Expected From Ecstasy Abuse According to a Teen Treatment Center

Of the many drug related cases that teen addiction rehabs get, one of the most common ones include Ecstasy addiction.  Also referred to as ‘X’ and ‘XTC’, Hug, ‘Love Drug, Lover’s Speed and Beans; this recreational drug which is used mostly in club parties and raves is increasingly abused by people in their teens and early 20s.  The scientific name for Ecstasy is MDMA or methylenedioxymethamphetamine and is known to have properties that can mimic the effects of that of hallucinogens and stimulants.

Various rave parties that have been busted in US and many other places in the world have shown that the youth revels in taking these drugs.  It is actually a banned substance because it has been used largely for date rapes. There have been many cases of boys trying to spike drinks of girls with ecstasy in order to make her sexually promiscuous with them.

Question by Miss Molly Elizabeth Anne Magee: I get headaches, see stars, feel numb in my hands, and have blurry vision. What the heck is wrong with me??
Just wondering if anybody knows what the cause of these symptoms could be!
I notice gatorade really seems to help (which is really random… Maybe just a coincidence??)
If anybody else has similar issues, cures, or a “diagnosis” for me, I’d really appreciate it!! Thanks. :)

Those all sound like symptoms of Diabetes. I would definitely check out some research about it. But if not, then it could just be dehydration. Both explain why gatorade would help.

Question by Mom of 3: Any suggestions on what this may be?
I have had some problems for a while now…last September, I was hospitalized for body tremors. They did a CT scan, MRI, MRI with contrast and many many other tests including a Spinal Tap. Most of my test came back normal or inconclusive due to my severe tremors during testing. Also my B12 level was extremely low, and I have been on prescription B12 injections since September of 2008. I have been to 3 Neurologists. The third one (the current one) has said that my Spinal Tap was slightly abnormal which meant there is pressure on the brain somewhere. She also diagnosed me with Myoclonus Seizures. I’m on Keppra for that. The past 4 months, I’ve started having horrible unbearable headaches and she gave me Naproxen, a muscle relaxer plus a migraine med to take at the onset of the headache, Nothing seems to work. I have headaches daily, some are worse than others. I have noticed the hearing in my right ear is starting to go in and out. On top of the headaches, I have confusion with daily tasks, short term memory loss which is getting worse all the time, dizziness, balance problems, and my seizures are getting worse. I’m now starting to stare off for 20-30 seconds after a seizure which occurs 6-7 times a day. The seizure meds obviously aren’t helping. So, I bring these symptoms to my neurologist. Her response is “I think you are depressed” Let’s try depression meds. Well if muscle relaxers, migraine meds and pain meds don’t help the headaches, why would a depression med make any difference? I’m in the process of trying to find another Neurologist, I haven’t had anymore testings done, because my present Neurologist doesn’t “feel it’s necessary” I’m a 28 year old female.
Thanks for your time in reading this. I’m open to all advice and just wondering what you all think this could be. No, I’m not looking for a “online diagnosis” either. Thanks.
