Club Drugs:
Ecstasy, GHB, Rohypnol
Ecstasy is a stimulant that has hallucinogenic
properties. It produces intensely pleasurable
effects, including an enhanced sense of
self-confidence and energy. Other effects
include feelings of peacefulness, acceptance,
and empathy, a desire to touch others,
involuntary teeth clenching, loss of
inhibitions, transfixion on sights and sounds,
nausea, blurred vision, chills and/or sweating,
seizures, and increased heart rate and blood
pressure. After-effects of use can include sleep
problems, anxiety, paranoia, and depression.
(These symptoms can develop weeks or months
after using Ecstasy.) Repeated use of Ecstasy
may damage the cells that produce serotonin, a
substance that regulates a person’s mood,
appetite, pain, learning and memory. The
stimulating effects of Ecstasy may increase a
user’s level of physical activity, causing
severe dehydration and dramatic increases in
body temperature. This can lead to muscle
breakdown and failure of the kidneys, liver and
cardiovascular functions. Drinking water while
physically active can be hazardous. Guzzling too
much water may cause sodium levels to drop so
much that the water is absorbed into brain
cells, leading them to swell; this creates a
potentially fatal condition known as
hyponatremia.
GHB is a depressant. At lower doses, GHB can
relieve anxiety and produce relaxation.
Combining use with other drugs such as alcohol
can result in nausea and difficulty breathing.
GHB may also produce withdrawal effects,
including insomnia, anxiety, tremors, and
sweating. As the dose increases, the sedative
effects may result in sleep and eventual coma or
death. GHB has reportedly been used in cases of
date rape; because GHB is odorless and
tasteless, it can be slipped into someone's
drink without detection.
Rohypnol is a depressant. It creates a sleepy,
relaxed, and drunk feeling that lasts 2 to 8
hours. Other effects may include blackouts with
a compete loss of memory, dizziness and
disorientation, nausea, difficulty with motor
movements and speaking. Rohypnol can produce
physical and psychological dependence. |
