MDMA
Rave drug, chemically
MDMA is a synthetic psychoactive drug that produces feelings of euphoria, emotional closeness, and heightened sensory experience.
Chemically related to both stimulants and hallucinogens, it's the active ingredient in ecstasy or molly.
MDMA became popular in club and rave culture and has recently shown therapeutic promise for treating PTSD: The FDA granted breakthrough therapy status to MDMA-assisted psychotherapy.
