It can be a nice experience, but I wouldn't call it therapeutic. I mean, it won't change your personality or anything like that.

That's a nice opinion. Be a shame if anything ever happened to it. I hope you have others that you can share.

> I mean, it won't change your personality or anything like that. I was on MDMA in 2000 when I finally saw through my own bigotry. I had been raised with a particular set of values about a group due to the prejudice of a parent. I have always attributed that personal breakthrough to the drug. This still might have occurred naturally, albeit at a slower rate, but it shattered my worldview in a very positive way in one night. I could go on about personality changes that were directly linked to another chemical, but the point is that just because it hasn’t happened to you doesn’t mean that it hasn’t happened to someone else.

False. When used in the right set & setting MDMA can have profound impacts on people's lives. The book Trust Surrender Receive has 40+ accounts of people use did underground therapy with amazing results. http://bit.ly/mdmabook http://bit.ly/mdmabook

Did you use it in a clinical setting under a doctor’s care?

I know a ton of people that have been helped dramatically with MDMA. Most commonly lifted out of depression, permanently.

Well psychiatric researchers who actually treat people while under the influence of MDMA disagree, so your opinion isn't really relevant.

Disagree - I suffered crippling social anxiety and paranoia as a teenager. I was a lonely and isolated child. First time I tried MDMA in a social setting was like stepping into another body where strangers weren't all laughing at me/talking about me behind my back. I was able to effortlessly start conversations with random people and was surprised at the positive response. That one night was a huge, huge catalyst in overcoming my social anxiety and I can't overstate how long-lasting, life changing and valuable the experience was for me. MDMA is an extremely powerful substance and I'm excited to see it being taken seriously for therapy.
