7. Ecstasy is one of the most dangerous drugs
Recent research has shown very serious, long term damage to the nervous system from Ecstasy. A recent TV programme talked about cases of brain damage, even holes in the brain, caused by this drug.
Ecstasy is a "hallucinogen" (a drug that acts on the mind to cause people to see or feel things that aren't really there.) These are some of the most dangerous drugs.

This person is hallucinating (seeing something that isn't really there).
Hallucinogens cause pictures in the mind to become mixed up. a person can get thrown into a scary or sad experience from the past and get stuck there without even realising it. This can result in permanent feelings of fear, sadness or other feelings that have nothing to do with what's happening in the person's life.
