What is MDMA commonly known as?

  1. Euphoria

  2. Crystal

  3. Ecstasy

  4. Zen

The correct answer is: Ecstasy

MDMA is commonly known as Ecstasy. The name is well recognized in both popular culture and within discussions about recreational substances. MDMA, or 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, is a psychoactive drug that produces feelings of increased energy, pleasure, emotional warmth, and distorted sensory and time perception, which is often associated with the euphoric experiences that users report when consuming it. In the context of the other options, Euphoria does relate to the effects of MDMA but is not a commonly used name for the drug itself. Crystal refers to methamphetamine, a different substance with distinct effects and properties. Zen is not a recognized street name for MDMA and does not relate to the drug in any meaningful way. Therefore, Ecstasy stands out as the widely accepted and recognizable name for MDMA within social and clinical discussions.
