Ecstacy is one of the most addictive drugs out today. Most users of this
addictive drug is either at a club or on the street. “Nearly all of the first time
users 30% of those have fatal effects on the user (Cranford 12)” They end up
usually in a deep coma or they die. Most users want ecstacy either because
they heard of the high that they get from the use, or they are trying to impress
their peers. They usually get into deep side effects.
Some code names for ecstacy at a club are Game High, Tasty Treat, G
Squared, and BW3. These may vary but the ones I were told of were from
a past user. He was addicted to the drug from a club that he ran into a friend
there and got addicted to the drug after the first time of use. He was either

out with friends or to any clubs. He has gone through rehab and hasnt

pressure sky rockets, and usually dosent come down for a period of time.
Vision come a little distorted but the user just dosent mind that, they just
need a little fix for the night to have a little fun. The vision turns to about
20-75, they can still see fine, they may occasionally
see a double vision. They
feel this effect as if they are really light headed or just feeling really dizzy at
moments. That need of that same effect of the first time of use, usually gets
that first time user hooked on the drug. They try to get a fix every time
they
feel like they need a fix. That usually happens about 12-24 hrs. after each
use. Thats for a periodical user. Most users dont abuse the drug to often.
” The user just needs that little bit of a high and dosent abuse but likes the
effects of the major high (Richardson 15).” The user likes the feel of being
