Last week, we went into a debate about the long term effect off MDMA ( Ecstasy ). Two major position were taken :
-
MDMA Has not been used illegally by many people long enough for scientist to be sure about it’s long term effect.
-
MDMA adverse effect are only related to usage ( that is bad usage has bad effect ).
Also, we were starting to talk about psychological addiction of behavioral drug ( alcohol, mdma, heroin, but not tabacco ). Since this may last for while, here it is !!!
To get started, I think that on the long run, psychological effect of drug is really a bigger problem then physical effect. I read in some study that psychological addiction is develop when one take a drug as a defense mechanism against his/her environment and that this kind of addiction is much more severe then physical addiction to a substance.
What do you think… The Debate is open
