Ecstasy – Class A
by englishpen
Ecstasy (E’s)
Ecstasy (E’s) is a popular drug among raves, parties and other such occasions. E’s are class A drug! This makes it illegal, to carry, buy, sell or manufacture the drug. Possession of the drug can get you up to 7 years in prison, dealing E’s can get you life and an unlimited fine.
Long-term effects:
In general, the long term effects aren’t too serious… Saying that, they can cause (after subsequent use) – memory loss, depression, personality change and bowel issues. This drug can leave you with, heart, liver and kidney problems.
Short-term effects:
Anxiety, panic attacks and confused or delirious periods are the focused short-term effects of E’s and can all prove fatal, with over 200 UK deaths since 1996! The drug is often taken during dances or parties as it gives you a buzz and supplies energy.
E’s (in their pure form) are crumbles of white crystalline powder, known as MDMA. On the streets, E’s come in the form of pills and powder, generally smoked, swallowed or snorted. A common mistake with E’s is the assumption that because the drug has not kicked in, it won’t. It will, but taking double the dose, gives you double the side effects to deal with! E’s however, are very rarely pure. Mixed with drugs such as caffeine and speed as they’re cheaper to make.
Below are a set of questions I put forward to the msn automation ‘Talk to Frank’; http://www.talktofrank.com/article.aspx?id=1624
What other names are there for ecstasy?
Street names for drugs can vary around the country. E, pills, brownies, Mitsubishi’s, Rolex’s, Dolphins, XTC.
What are the chances of getting hooked?
It’s possible to build up tolerance to E, which means people take more to get the same buzz. You may also develop a psychological dependence (the desire to keep on using even in spite of potential harm).
There’s some uncertainty about the long term side effects of Es. But evidence suggests it can cause damage to the brain causing long term problems – like depression, personality change and memory loss.
What is ecstasy?
Description of Ecstasy
This is often called the original designer drug because of its synonymous relationship with rave culture in the early 90s. Clubbers took ecstasy to stay awake and dance for hours. The effects take about half an hour to kick in and tend to last between 3 to 6 hours, followed by a gradual comedown.
