It would seem strange to me to have someone guiding me through the experience when they themselves haven't used MDMA.

Hi there,

Thank you for your service. To keep it short, is there any REAL evidence that the use of MDMA damages your serotonin receptor system and makes it difficult to produce/process serotonin in the brain naturally afterwards?

Thanks!

MDMA as well as other psychedelics, produce feelings and experiences that are very difficult and frankly impossible to explain to anyone until you've had them yourself. I just don't see how a psychologist or physician can be of much help if they haven't experienced it at least once. Preferably several times.

Thanks again for your service and your informative response.

I definitely see your point, but I also think you're being a bit of a contrarian. Especially if you've tried MDMA yourself.

Thankfully, MAPS responded to my question and I'm reassured to hear that their team is administered MDMA prior to dealing with patients.
