MDMA (Ecstacy) for PTSD

Posted by Elle2021 on July 9, 2004, at 2:55:57

I was just informed today that some researchers have been authorized to use MDMA (Ecstacy) in the treatment of PTSD. I did some of my own Googling and found a research proposal and an article. Apparently, people in Europe have been using this type of treatment for quite some time. I wonder why I never heard about it. What do you guys think? http://www.macalester.edu/~psych/whathap/UBNRP/mdma/ptsd.html
