Has MDMA "cured" your psychological problems?

MDMA turned me into someone who cares about my fellow people... from right-wing extremist to Peace & Love.

Since then I use it as a tool, something to be respected and not overdone. We all have our MDMA honeymoons, as did I. Used in this manner it will cure, and not create psychological problems.
 
MDMA has totally improved my over all personality and level of confidence. My first couple rolls were with close friends on amazing old school pills. I opened up so much and talked about so many emotional disasters that we had all been through. It was so healing, I think i would still have alot of that stuff bottled up, and would probably be a different person if I hadnt done ecstasy. I think empathogen is a huge understatement :)
 
After many a time on Mdma my thoughts about killing people, mass mayhem, mutilation, and corpse desecration have been eased.. I also show a greater sense of empathy and sorrow for those who suffer. It was the first drug to radically change my thoughts and behavior for the better, in my opinion.
 
I was so depressed that it got to the point of having to see a Phsycologist before i did something drastic to end my negative thinking ,paranoia and debilitating agoraphobia so i was put on a high dose of anti depessants, they seemed to work for the fisrt month or so but i was still feeling very low untill i went out on a saturday night and took one pressed tablet named after a luxary car. I hadn't taken them in a long time and had forgotten the benefits of going out and feeling euphoric and content with just being alive and dealing with whatever life has dealt me. Long story short i stopped taking the anti deppressants that night , broke up with someone who was dragging me down and i feel great. That one tab really made a world of difference. I also know that depths of deppression from taking too many of them and have seen childhood friends pesonalitys change and watched some turn to addicts from chasing the dragon coming down off them. So its a thin line really yeah...
 
it brings me the realization that anxiety, self esteem issues and depression are pointless bullshit. gives me a taste of what being in a land of magical beautiful constant orgasmic perfection is like, and then takes it away again. never had any decent revelations or a life changing epiphanies... not compared to the afterglows of MXE/Ketamine or mind opening attributes of DMT. reckon dissocatives are the way forward in psychological problem cures or helping these problems. good stuff none the less, unless abused

I have social anxiety and have had it since early high school (24 now), I was hoping MDMA would give me some kind of brain-shift and my anxiety would magically disappear, it does, while I'm rolling, but then I'm back to my usual nervous self-medicating with benzos self.

Do you think it's because I've only done it a couple of times alone in my room, when maybe if I had done it at a lower dose and been in a social setting it might have been shall we say, more therapeutic for my condition? I mean, it certainly *sounds* plausible, but I'm not a psychiatrist.
 
I wouldn't recommend it, taking too much mdma could make you worse , i've found exercise to work wonders for social anxiety, try going the gym at non peak times .
 
i abused mdma daily for a long while, to the point that mentally i hit bottom, i was a clean slate ready to be re-morphed. i blew away (with bombs) any stereotypes or cliches and all my insecurities.
i wouldnt say mdma cured my psychological problems, it did change my life though. it was dark for awhile, but i absorbed all the light i could and i'm a more humble, conscience, and educated being.
 
You can tell the people who say MDMA only helped them and cured their depression are total e-tards. Yes it allows you to trust people more in general but curing depression. Does the TOTAl opposite, and causes other psychological problems such as anxiety, derealization, and so on when even abused slightly. How is having long term serotonin issues curing your depression, by its scientific nature it will cause a person to be more depressed and anxious. While on it you are on top of everything , talking to everyone feeling like you have never felt. But guess where all of that happy pleasure is going which is supposed to be used for days to come in the future. It is being flushed out of you that night, leaving you feeling like a shell of what you used to be.
 
i agree for the most part with what your saying f1n1shed, those who believe they are cured are foolish.
dealing with the after effects of mdma(abuse) is really where boy meets man. if you cant hang your ganna be a crazy-anxiety-depressed motherfucker who cant look people in the eye when you talk.
but if you understand what you've done and that you've changed (not implying i know anything of what my actual abuse did biochem wise) , positive things can come from mdma abuse.
 
For me it temporarily brings down those social barriers that make me feel awkward at a rave, and helps me bond with my friends better but,
Other than that,
Not really.
 
MDMA is a great anti-depressant when used rarely. It helps to remind me of what being in a heart-centred space looks like, and how to be confident. I'm way more extroverted when I'm on it.

I can totally see its therapeutic potential.
 
I took bk-MDMA for about a week, low doses like 50-100mg 3-5 times per day, after that week, which was only 2-3 weeks ago now, I have felt like shit every single day and I don't know what to do about it, I can feel myself getting better, but it's slow.. I also got a chest infection somehow so that isn't helping either, I'm definitely worse off than I was before I tried this, and now I think i'm going to avoid all drugs lest they fuck me up more. any suggestions?
 
I've abused it passed times rolled 3 times in under a month... and I don't have signs of social anxiety/anxiety or depression. I would even go to say I'm feeling much better, but yeh I do take care of what I eat and exercise daily.

But I'm taking a big break until NYE. I beleive longer term abuse is when it really puts a toll on your mental health.
 
MDMA is wonderfull, for sure. My happy-o-meeter rised from what it was. I didnt want to drink that much of alcohol after MDMA cuz of how shit it felt.
 
Why abuse anything? There really is no need. I think people look to much into things, it's a chemical that alters the mood of oneself for a few hours and that is it. I dose up on a planned evening about once every 2 to 3 months at a club and enjoy what it does to me for that period. I'm not socially inept or insecure while sober, I just enjoy the mdma high. I understand the comedown but I'm not depressed after use, I enjoy the comedown, I see it as another ending mdma induced episode and I'm fine with that. If you aren't strong minded and of intellect when sober then drugs aren't for you. Mdma isn't going to cure anything, it's seriously naive to think that. It's in you to begin with, some things release it, be it mdma or whatever. I love drugs and I respect them. Before you start taking drugs to 'cure' yourself, read more and exercise and listen to good music because drugs aren't going to cure a confused mind. If that come across as a load of self righteous bullshit then please tell me as I am drunk right now haha.
 
Well, it has given me a tremendous boost in confidence. Hell, I thought low of myself but when I was rolling those insecurities went out of the window and everyone that night loved me lol. It didn't cure psychological problems but that experience did give me the boost I needed at the time to shape up and feel good about myself.
 
MDMA helped my anxiety. Then I tried mushrooms and it basically reserved what had been somewhat solved, and then made it worse. *sigh* But it did help my anxiety for about half a year :) woot!
