Artwork depicting the effects of the drug ecstasy
Ecstasy. Artwork depicting the effects of taking the drug ecstasy. Ecstasy or " E" (3, 4- methylene dioxymethamphetamine) is an illegal drug which gives users a sense of well-being, affection for the people around them, increased energy and sometimes hallucinations. Possible short-term problems associated with ecstasy include feeling ill, losing control and dehydrating. Long-term problems include memory and weight loss. Some deaths have been associated with the use of ecstasy. These have generally been caused by an accumulation of water in the brain because the drug affects the bodys internal signals, rather than being due to the drugs direct toxicity

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Artwork depicting the effects of the drug ecstasy" delves into the intricate world of recreational drugs and their impact on human life. Created by Science Photo Library, this print serves as a thought-provoking reminder of the potential consequences associated with taking ecstasy. Ecstasy, also known as "E" or 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), is an illegal substance that induces feelings of euphoria, affection towards others, heightened energy levels, and occasionally hallucinations. However, this seemingly blissful experience comes at a cost. The short-term effects of ecstasy can range from feeling unwell to losing control and experiencing dehydration. Moreover, long-term use may lead to memory impairment and weight loss. Tragically, some individuals have lost their lives due to water accumulation in the brain caused by disruptions in internal signals triggered by this drug. Through its vivid portrayal of these effects on canvas or paper medium, this artwork prompts viewers to reflect upon the dangers associated with drug abuse. It serves as a powerful visual representation urging society to address issues related to substance misuse while highlighting the importance of healthcare interventions for those affected. Science Photo Library's creation not only showcases artistic talent but also raises awareness about illicit drugs' detrimental impacts on both physical and mental well-being. This image stands as a testament to our collective responsibility in combating drug abuse and promoting healthier lifestyles within our communities.
