Youth Impotence - Caused by Ecstasy
In the early ‘70s, LSD and weed dominated the counter-culture scene. In the ‘80s, crack cocaine became a fad; in the ‘90s, Ecstasy. Club goers experience a heightened sense of stimulation while on Ecstasy. Anxiety-ridden individuals feel more at ease, while students experience improved concentration while on “E.”
Like most illegal drugs, Ecstasy contains harmful toxins that damage the body. The serotonin imbalances create a heightened sense of happiness. But prolonged abuse of the drug can damage the body and the physiological desire for sex.
Danger to Youths
Older males understand what excites them. Younger males are still discovering what sexually excites them. They are learning what type of partners turn them on. They are witnessing the type of techniques that pleasure them the most. Most importantly, their brains and organs are developing. For young males, Ecstasy creates an imbalance in serotonin-producing neurons. So when a young man abuses the drug, the images and methods that once pleased him no longer do. The longer a man abuses the drug, the worse the serotonin imbalance becomes.
Importance of Serotonin
Serotonin is a mood enhancer. Individuals who experience anxiety or depression demonstrate low levels of the neurochemical. Serotonin functions as an erection enhancer, too. Each time a man’s body releases dopamine to create pleasure, serotonin becomes elevated as well to create stimulation. When serotonin levels have remained high, the body requires more of the chemical to generate stimulation and happiness. Because the body cannot produce the same amount of serotonin as Ecstasy, a man experiences impotence.
For younger men the abuse of Ecstasy can prove especially harmful because they continue to discover what titillates them. Instead, Ecstasy creates a new level of stimulation the brain will desire always. Young men who detox from Ecstasy will notice they cannot receive the same stimulation because of heightened serotonin levels.
Common side effects from Ecstasy include:
- Nausea
- Blurred vision
- Confusion
- Depression
- Sleep problems
- Drug craving
- Severe anxiety
- Increases in heart rate and blood pressure
- Sweating
- Paranoia
- Muscle tension
- Involuntary teeth clenching
- Rapid eye movement
- Faintnes
- Chills
Detox That's Right for You
Young men need to see stabilization in serotonin levels to regain their erectile strength. The body too needs a detox to eliminate the toxic waste that has ravaged organs. With the liver free of waste, the body can expel toxins and improve the metabolism of nutrients essential for the production of serotonin.
