Ecstasy and Club Drug Detox

For a few fleeting hours, Ecstasy and other "club drugs" make their users feel on top of the world - but that short burst of pleasure comes with serious health and addiction consequences. Even one use of Ecstasy can cause lasting brain damage, and many casual users soon find themselves hooked and unable to stop. For help with Ecstasy detox, call Treatment Solutions Network today at 877-417-6237.

Club drug detox is best handled under professional care

ecstasy and club drug detox Ecstasy and other club drugs can be tough to quit. Over time, Ecstasy users develop a tolerance to the methylenedioxymethamphetamine, or MDMA, contained in the pills - so users start taking more pills to keep the desired euphoric feeling coming. This higher dosage means that once the heavy user tries to stop, the withdrawal symptoms they'll experience are even more severe than normal. By undergoing Ecstasy detox in a drug rehab setting, our clients benefit from around-the-clock medical care and also receive prescription medications that will ease, or in some cases even eliminate, withdrawal symptoms during detox.

What are the withdrawal symptoms associated with Ecstasy detox?

Ecstasy withdrawal is primarily psychological in nature - severe physical symptoms are uncommon. But that doesn't mean Ecstasy withdrawal is easy. The psychological symptoms of club drug detox can be intense, and include:

Depression
Anxiety
Insomnia
Difficulty concentrating

In addition, Ecstasy detox may be affected by the fact that street-level Ecstasy is often diluted with other stimulants the user is not aware of - stimulants that have their own detox side effects.

Is quitting Ecstasy something I can do on my own?

Going "cold turkey" without any professional help is not recommended - for a variety of reasons. For one, you or your loved one will simply being more comfortable at one of our high-quality Ecstasy detox centers - places where your depression and/or anxiety symptoms will be medically treated. Club drug detox centers are also well-experienced in helping clients overcome their feelings of insomnia so they can enjoy a good night's rest.

A second reason that entering Ecstasy detox is so important: kicking a club drug habit requires more than just no longer using. For every addict, there are emotional and psychological issues that lead us to our drug of choice, be it Ecstasy or alcoholism (or both). There's something in our lives we've been trying to escape, or bury, and so dancing the night away with a drug that makes us feel beautiful and worry-free became the solution.

If you take the substance abuse out of the equation, there's still the empty feelings inside that got us here. At drug rehab, which will immediately follow your Ecstasy detox, you'll learn to overcome those feelings inside that have been holding you back for so long. Through non-judgmental, compassionate group and individual counseling, you'll leave rehab a more secure, healthier, happier person.

The club drug problem on college campuses

Many of those who frequently turn to Ecstasy - college students - are hurt the most by the drug's negative side effects. These effects, which can include anxiety, restlessness, nausea, and panic attacks, can derail once-promising academic careers - leading to fewer future job opportunities and a lower quality of life in the years ahead.

Is a few hours of dancing really worth all that?

And despite the myth that Ecstasy and other club drugs are safe, even one use can be dangerous. Kevin Conway, a deputy director at the National Institute on Drug Abuse, had this to say to the Arizona Daily Wildcat student newspaper:

"One study in nonhuman primates showed that exposure to Ecstasy for only four days caused damage to serotonin nerve terminals that was still evident six to seven years later," Conway said. "Using Ecstasy at all is risky."
