The Drug Enforcement Administration reports that the use of Ecstasy, usually composed of amphetamines and hallucinogens, has increased 500 percent in the past 5 years. Ecstasy users report feelings of increased self-esteem, heightened concern for others, and more affection for those around them; however, the drug is more dangerous than most users believe. The Drug Enforcement Administration reports that Ecstasy can cause extreme heat stroke, brain damage, and heart attacks. It is even more dangerous when combined with marijuana, LSD, or cocaine. Many Ecstasy users lose the ability for the brain to properly produce serotonin, leading to lifetime dependence on antidepressants to achieve previous brain functions. Ecstasy is often used at late-night dance parties called raves, or at concerts and nightclubs. To curb Ecstasy use, parents and campus officials should read pro-drug magazines, visit Web sites, and know where users tend to spend their time. Peer groups composed of former users can help youth realize that Ecstasy has serious risks.
