'''Methylenedioxymethamphetamine''' (commonly abbreviated MDMA), which is widely referred to as '''Ecstasy''', is a psychedelic drug that is illegal in the [[United States]]. It is considered to be a stimulant, and can be very addicting. It is usually taken in pill form, although it can also be snorted. [http://www.brown.edu/Student_Services/Health_Services/Health_Education/atod/od_ecstasy.htm] MDMA is heavily associated with "rave" culture.
==Effects of MDMA==
MDMA dramatically increases one's [[heart]] rate and can affect memory, the body's ability to regulate temperature, and lead to [[depression]], anxiety, and sleep problems, nausea, dehydration/headstroke, among other things. [http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofacts/ecstasy.html] It produces a euphoric "high" that lasts several hours by releasing norepinephrine, but depression and a general feeling of malaise are a frequent result once the high wears off.
