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.
Some code names for ecstacy on the street are usually Special Tab,
Hidden High, Relax Tab and Rough Ride. The street version is way more potent than the club version. The one in the clubs are usually either fake or not very strong. They usually dont give out a major dose, they usually rip off
the user by saying “this is the best stuff you can buy possible.” Which is a major lie to the user, but he just needs that little high to calm his need of ecstacy at a low rate. Most code names vary depending where you are in the country or world. There are totally opposite names for ecstacy in new york and L.A.
Some side effects after use of ecstacy are heart rate increases, blood 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 in a high and dosent want to come down from that. They usually buy more than one pill of ecstacy so when they come down off of there first high so they take another one after the major high
