What are the side effects of using Ecstasy?
The side effects of pure MDMA are a little bit different than the side effects if you get Ecstasy that’s cut with speed, and then you’ve got sort of more speedy side effects. But with pure MDMA some people notice a tightness in their jaw, but not everybody gets that. Your pupils will get dilated. Your skin might get a little bit flushed. You tend to have more energy, or you’re more awake, more alert. You can have a teeth grinding, that’s called bruxism. And at the peak effects of MDMA, you get these eye movements, these uncontrolled eye movements, these automatic eye movements. You’re not moving your eyes, they’re sort of moving on their own, which are sometimes called nystagmus, but they’re not really nystagmus, that incorrect. They’re sort of eye rolling. I think that’s why some people will call taking Ecstasy “rolling”, because your eyes can sort of roll around in your head when you’re very high on MDMA.
