Ecstasy
Sometimes when I'm watching the news or flipping through newspapers I stop and realize how many sick and deranged people there are in this world. If you open a newspaper or turn on the news any day of the week there is always some situation going on that just makes you sick or makes you wonder how could a person do this sort of thing to another person. There are many crazy people in this world who do things for no other reason other than because they feel like it or the fact that there is something mentally wrong with them. At least this is what we think, but is there other reasons? Other answers? Could there be something we don't know something inside these people that disturbs them so much to the point where they act out in horrible ways? Well by using Ecstasy which is known to open the mind and break down mental barriers(Kusinitz 43). Then maybe we can find out what's really wrong with the mentally ill and the people who commit horrid crimes. Therefore it should be legalized for those purposes but for those purposes only. It should still remain illegal to the general public because it does have numerous short term and long term side effects. If Ecstasy were legalized we could use it to find out what is really
). It also has some long term effects like damage to the parts of the brain critical to thought and memory (Ecstasy 13547. 3/20/01 ). It is said by Kronwetter Ecstasy can cause dehydration, anxiety, and exhaustion (65). Also if we used this for just medical and psychological reasons there would be constant monitoring of the body's temperature. Also there would be tests to make sure that the hearts and kidney's of the patients weren't weak, because as told by Shulgin ecstasy can make the users more vulnerable to preexisting conditions such as a weak heart and kidney's (14). The state of mind of the patients will be monitored also because of the reason that the type of trip they will have is highly depended upon their state of mind, so that is another thing that will be constantly monitored so that nothing will go wrong. Everything that is able to be monitored will be monitored even the person during and weeks after the trip they will be monitored. Also Ecstasy can make depressed people more depressed. It is told by William Wilson a pharmacology professor that the uprising of Ecstasy may one day cause a whole generation of depressed people (qtd. in a CBS report). Now for some of the many side affects that are caused by the use and continued use of Ecstasy. Some short-term side effects include psychological difficulties, including confusion, depression, sleep problems, drug craving, severe anxiety, and paranoia (Ecstasy 13547. 3/20/01 ). Also some physical symptoms that can effect the a person during and sometimes weeks after taking Ecstasy like muscle tension, involuntary teeth clenching, nausea, blurred vision, rapid eye movement, faintness, and chills or sweating(Ecstasy 13547. 3/20/01 Ecstasy enhances communication which could be a good thing for quieter children they would be able to find out the things that make them silent and not want to be loud and expressing of themselves. For the fact that it relaxes inhibitions this will help us find out what is the purpose in mind when killers kill and when child molesters molest. This will allow us to find out what
