Molly Addiction, MDMA Abuse, Ecstasy Addiction and Understanding the Effects of Using
Where did MDMA come from? How is Molly or MDMA abused?
A Brief History: Molly (MDMA) is not a new drug. It has been around since 1912. A laboratory in Germany, Merck pharmaceutical company, was attempting to create a compound that would slow and control bleeding: one of the chemicals that was created as part of the process was what we became to know as MDMA. They received a patent in 1914 and it was a decade later before they started testing for the drug.
It was then that they found out that MDMA did not act like they anticipated: instead of the subject hallucinating and having their will crushed, it gave the subject a sense of euphoria and filled them with empathy. Due to the unforeseen side effects, the drug was shelved and laid dormant for the next 10 or so years, when Alexander Shulgin, a professor at the University of California, stumbled upon the compound through a few of his students in 1976 who were synthesizing the drug. He introduced the compound to one of his colleagues, David Nichols and in 1978 the two of them published a paper about the drug, sighting its psychotropic effects and comparing it to marijuana and magic mushrooms without the hallucinate properties. In the 1980s, it became a popular club drug and MDMA, its first street name was “Adam” but that soon was replaced with the more popular name “Ecstasy”. In 1982, Ecstasy or Molly was classified as a schedule one controlled substance and in 1985, it was determined that there was no medical value to continue research and Molly was born.
