the street, is a semi-synthetic psychoactive drug with amphetamine-like.

serious concerns. Ecstasy may not seem very dangerous, but it has been.
linked to serious brain damage or in some cases, has even been blamed.
for death. .

users say that the drug lowers your inhibitions, breaks down barriers.
between friends, enhances sensations, feelings of love, and affection.

good, but actually there are many bad effects too. Ecstasy can cause.
hallucinations, chills, involuntary teeth clenching, muscle cramping,.
blurred vision, and an increase in body temperature, heart rate, and.

it ranges in price from $10-30 a dose. There are very alarming.
