What is Molly and "Meth Around" Film





         Meth is now considered the most dangerous drug in the United States. It is said to feel four times better than a natural orgasm. However, brain damage, rotted teeth, child abandonment and death lie in it's wake. In "Meth Around," Opio Sokoni thoroughly educates the viewer with shocking footage and intelligent interviews covering a host of issues surrounding the subject matter. Aside from it's history, which includes Hitler and John F. Kennedy's use of meth, this thirty minute film also takes a look at how a white epidemic may soon turn on the United States' black and brown communities with the help of zealous legislators and law enforcement. This documentary pushes the envelope while staying true to real facts and refusing to exploit real lives affected by meth addiction. Some things are unbelievable.


=================================================================


What is Molly?

  •  The name, which stands for molecule.  MDMA is an empathogenic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine classes of drugs. MDMA has become widely known as "ecstasy", usually referring to its street pill form, although this term may also include the presence of possible adulterants.

  • In a recent student survey at Syracuse University in New York, 20% of the participants responded that they had tried Molly. 

  •  Buy an Ecstasy Test Kit:   

  • These testing kits can be used to determine whether the pill or powder you were sold is the real deal, or a dangerous substitute or fake. Let your friends know you have the kit, and encourage them all to test their pills before using them. You never know when you're going to get sold pills with PCP or PMA or something in them.

  • The full effect of legit Molly Druglasts about 3-4 hours. Molly is sold as a powder and users take this as a sign of purity.

  • it produces a strong sense of bonding with others.
  • Users report experiences like:
  • "It felt like everything was amplified. It felt euphoric - almost like a crazy adrenaline rush for a long time."
  • "You feel a lot more loose and comfortable in your environment."

  • As both a psychedelic and a stimulant, Molly brings on an energetic euphoria – not the “I must do stuff” rush of meth, but the feeling of being full of energy without any particular purpose, making it easy to go with the music or interactions with others.

  • Adverse effects include increased and unwanted motor activity, such as tremor or clenching of the jaw muscles and teeth grinding. Users may deal with this (as well as dry mouth from dehydration) by keeping something in the mouth. For a while, it was popular to have a baby pacifier handy to suck on, giving the jaws something to do and promoting saliva production.

  • More serious effects are an increased heart rate, abnormally high body temperature and dehydration that leads to symptoms of heat stroke. The latter is especially significant if the user is exercising (dancing, for example). A sudden, toxic increase in body temperature, akin to a fever, can cause liver, kidney or cardiovascular failure.

  • Because use of the drug depletes the body’s store of serotonin, chronic users may find they are unable to feel pleasure naturally and need the drug to enjoy their lives.

  • The treatment community doesn’t yet have enough data to really know what the long-term consequences of taking the drug are. The situation is made even more complex because users often mix Molly with other substances, including marijuana, alcohol and cocaine.
