After his 1st session, Dr. #BenSessa "began to see therapeutic #MDMA as distinct from #recreational #ecstasy. With the latter, he notes, users tend to party, dance, have sex. In a #clinicalsetting, all that energy goes toward sorting through #pain, a process that he found revelatory. Unlike #LSD and #mushrooms, ecstasy isn’t usually taken for a spiritual awakening. “If more people took MDMA in dark silence, I think we’d get higher reports of #psychospiritual experiences.”
