MDMA effects on the human
body and brain

• Increases in heart rate and blood
pressure
• Nausea
• Loss of appetite
• Jaw tightness
• Compulsive chewing and teeth
clenching
• Anxiety, panic, and depression
• Health risks increase if ecstasy is
combined with another drug
Effects on the brain
MDMA forces the brain to kick out high
levels of a neurotransmitter called
serotonin

Effect of MDMA on serotonin
neurons in the brain.

When you take MDMA will begin to sweat due
to high body temperature that is caused by
the increase of blood pressure and heart rate.
Your vesicles will release enormous amounts
of serotonin into the synaps. This significantly
increases serotonin receptor binding. This
increased receptor activity leads to significant
changes in the brain electrical firing and is
primarily responsible for the experience you
get such as empathy, happiness, increased
sociableness, enhanced sensation of touch,
etc.
Jaw Clenching

People that take
MDMA will notice
that their jaw is
becoming sore due
to jaw clenching.
Jaw chattering or
clenching when you
take MDMA is due to
stimulation of the
trigeminal nerve
MDMA causes reduction in the reuptake
concentration of serotonin transporters in the
brain. Many studies have shown that it may
be neurotoxic in humans. Depression and
deficits in memory have been shown to occur
frequently in long-term users. Some people
that take too much of me can suffer from
long-term affects such as loss of
consciousness, cardio toxicity or damage to
the heart, cognitive and memory impairment
potentially to the point of retrograde or
anterograde amnesia, and even death
