Anja Huizink Ecstasy Quotations

Other studies claim that ecstasy leads to depression. Sometimes that is the case. But perhaps it is more the case that individuals who already have an increased risk for depression are more likely to use ecstasy.

Using ecstasy may increase a risk that is already there.

Perhaps for individuals who did not display symptoms of depression and anxiety in childhood, using a lot of ecstasy may also cause depression. We are not saying that is not the case, but we need more studies.

Ecstasy's effects are supposed to include enhanced feelings of bonding with other people, euphoria, or relaxation. Individuals with signs of anxiety or depression may be particularly susceptible to these positive effects and may therefore use ecstasy to relieve their symptoms.
