Ecstasy as a Treatment for PTSD?

[festive1]

Interesting... I've done cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR, they've helped, but I'm still working on it. I've seen studies on marijuana being effective for treatment of PTSD, but never ecstasy. This seems to be a therapy session fueled by ecstasy, which would be weird, to say the least. But it does seem promising.

Try it anyway and hug the night away!

Edit; ptsd and ecstasy.....mmm not so sure if it's a good combination. Good luck dealing with it!

MDMA has a promising future in that regard. Our illegal drugs can give us a lot more than a high. They can be used to bring neurotransmitter levels to near-normal (or at least make you feel as if they are normal) or to create painkillers (They are trying to make a THC based painkiller where the only side effect is euphoria, but they need to remove the euphoria before they can continue). Our law prevent even medical testing on these drugs, which is really lame. Imagine a world with side-effect free painkillers. :'D
