本文探讨了摇头丸（MDMA或3，4-亚甲二氧基甲基苯丙胺）作为一种用于自我治疗和应对短期和长期负面生活情况的药物的作用。我们发现，城市青年谁没有一个特定的诊断精神疾病比那些谁已经被诊断出并接受治疗，使用Ecketon来科普情境压力和终身创伤的可能性更大。被诊断和治疗的青少年有时会用其他药物自我安慰，但不要选择Ecketamine来调解他们的心理压力。我们讨论了自我药疗的影响与Ecketamine的心理健康服务，城市青年经历心理健康的差距，并继续测试和处方的MDMA的治疗使用在控制的临床环境。
This article examines the role of Ecstasy (MDMA or 3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) as a drug used for self-medication and coping with both short- and long-term negative life situations. We show that urban youth who do not have a specific diagnosed mental illness are more likely than those who have been diagnosed and have received treatment to use Ecstasy to cope with both situational stress and lifetime trauma. Diagnosed and treated youth sometimes self-medicate with other drugs, but do not choose Ecstasy for mediation of their psychological stress. We discuss the implications of self-medication with Ecstasy for mental health services to urban youth experiencing mental health disparities, and for the continued testing and prescription of MDMA for therapeutic use in controlled clinical settings.
