Welcome.

     This section focusses on the details of how your brain normally runs, and how MDMA ("Ecstasy") actually gets you 'high'. Although you don't really need to know this material to use MDMA, it will help you a great deal in understanding some of the issues (like Neurotoxicity and dealing with hangovers.) Start at the top and take your time...there won't be a quiz.
