Is MDMA the same thing as Ecstasy?

if so, why does everyone suddenly call it MDMA as opposed to Ecstasy before? x

Don't worry about CRAP like that-you should'nt be taking ANY kinds of drugs unless prescribed to you-and in case you did'nt know X was originally made as a sedative to calm elephants. I know of a few people who have DIED from the stuff.
Focus on making a great future for yourself and making alot of cash-in 5 years, you'll be driving a convertible BMW-and the "friends" (I use the term loosely) will be walkin down the streets lookin for MO drugs.
Sorry to preach-but I've seen too many lives ruined or lost because of the desire to feel "sleepy" from a drug---THAT IS STUPID!!!! WHY would anyone wanna feel tired? OR>feel like your heart is going to explode from cocaine???? IT makes NO SENSE.

It is the psychotropic element in ecstacy (the stuff that does the business!). Reason for name change: fashion.

Yes.

no

MDMA is the pure version

Ecstacy nowadays is cut with heroin at best, battery acid at worst.

MDMA is one of the componants of Ecstacy, but is the PURE drug, as opposed to being mixed with god knows what when made into pill form....well, i think thats right!!

Same thing.

mdma is pure ecstasy, and that is hard to find. cause most X is mixed withall kinds of drugs usually speed, coke, and heroin and so on.

Its the "active ingredient" of E, so much more potent and uncontaminated by other additives.

ecstacy pills have several ingrediants, MDMA is the active one and the only one people want.

so the dealers make more money from using less MDMA but its only one of the active ingredients in ecstasy.

ecstasy is cut with lots of crap, mdma is pure and really the thing that makes ppl go off their heads so i guess you could say

mdma is different from ecstasy. as ecstasy pills actually contain very little mdma.

Here is some info on MDMA.
Methylenedioxymethamphetamine

MDMA was the original love drug. Pure and uncut, it kept you infatuated with a partner, or in love with life, for 24 hours. It's a speed derivative. Some think it has therapeutic potential in the right setting.

Ecstasy is the watered-down, stepped-on club version. GOK (God Only Knows) what it's been cut with. Evidently some smarta-s-s got the 411 on the original lab name and now MDMA sounds so much more chic, but don't think you're getting anything more special. Given the choice, I'd turn down both to protect my brain cells. After all, I have so few of them...and I need them to last...a lifetime....

MDMA is 100% pure ecstasy.. alot worse than an ecstasy tab.. MDMA is powder & wipes you out more dan the normal tab

Back in the good old days (70's) MDMA or Dr MA was the drug of choice for those who couldn't afford MDA. The drug was great for keeping you up all night with hallucinations and very speedy effects on your body.
For the person who asked why, Why not?
