Adverse effects from overdosing on Ecstasy include addiction, memory problems, paranoia, difficulty in sleeping, blurred vision, profuse sweating and a rapid heartbeat. Deaths have been reported worldwide.

Clinicians and medical researchers have long known that addiction is often linked to a previous trauma, often from childhood.

As it stands today, Ecstasy remains an illegal drug in the U.S. with no approved medical uses. In 2017 however, it was used to treat severe, treatment-resistant post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in clinical trials condoned by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
