Not all drugs are the same. MDMA was used in couples therapy in the 1970 not because of its lasting brain changes, but because when you're being flooded by egregious amounts of serotonin and oxytocin it's easier to be more open, loving and understanding toward your loved ones. In social settings, it's hard not to fall in love with any random stranger. In therapy, you might fall in love with your partner once again, if just for a few hours.
Everyone that has taken MDMA once could attest to that.
The long term effects of methylenedioxymethamphetamine are, like its composition suggests, mostly bad unless used with moderation ("no more than once a season", suggested Ann Shulgin)
MDMA is very different from ketamine or psilocybin that have lasting mood lifting effects. Low-grade, short-term depression is usually the result of a good MDMA session if not properly managed.
