Methylenedioxymethamphetamine
• MDMA• Synthetic Drug-man made- Sassafras Tree
• Stimulant/Hallucinogen-Designer Drug• Effects brain chemicals Serotonin
Norepinephrine and Dopamine
MDMA acts by increasing the activity of three neurotransmitters, serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. The emotional and pro-social effects of MDMA are likely caused directly or indirectly by the release of large amounts of serotonin, which influences mood (as well as other functions such as appetite and sleep). Serotonin also triggers the release of the hormones oxytocin and vasopressin, which play important roles in love, trust, sexual arousal, and other social experiences. This may account for the characteristic feelings of emotional closeness and empathy produced by the drug; studies in both rats and humans have shown that MDMA raises the levels of these hormones.http://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/drugfacts/mdma-ecstasy-or-molly
