MDMA could repair bad relationships in romantic relationships

The pandemic has put love relationships under significant pressure as couples grapple with new difficulties, i.e. lack of privacy.

Too much togetherness, lack of personal space and the inability to do normal activities, such as going to the gym, are cited as reasons that lead to problems in relationships. A website that provides legal documents has reported a 34 percent increase in divorce contract sales during the pandemic, compared to the same time period last year.

Recent research by Dr. Brian Earp, titled Psychedelic Moral Enhancements, recalls MDMA being used in couples therapy in the 1980s. Is the time right to revive this study?

Yale University's Earp writes: 

"In the 1980s, before it was outlawed, MDMA—popularly known as 'ecstasy' for the euphoric feeling it can produce"—was used by professional counselors as an aid to couples therapy."

Writing in in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs in 1998, George Greer and Requa Tolbert described a method of conducting MDMA-enhanced therapy sessions based on their experience with approximately 80 clients between 1980-1985."

90 percent of Greer and Tolbert's clients reported feeling more love for their partners after undergoing therapy.

Let's love :) <3
