Signs and symptoms of ecstasy addiction
Looking for the sure signs of ecstasy addiction? Be careful not to confuse addiction with physical
dependence. Instead, look for these three main signs of ecstasy addiction.
The three signs of drug addiction are mainly psychological in nature.
1. Loss of control 2. Craving or compulsion
3. Continued use despite negative consequences
The first sign of ecstasy addiction is loss of control. If you continually take more ecstasy
than you planned, or for longer periods of time than you intend, you may be addicted
to ecstasy. Similarly, if you've tried to stop taking ecstasy but can't, this is a sign
of ecstasy addiction.
The second sign of ecstasy addiction is craving or compulsion. If the psychological urge to
use ecstasy persists even after ecstasy has left the body, this is a sign of ecstasy addiction.
Third, if you continue to use ecstasy even after experiencing problems at home, work
or school as a result of ecstasy use, you might be addicted to ecstasy.
Denial is frequently present during ecstasy addiction. So how can you talk about ecstasy
addiction with someone you care about?
