What causes mood variation and spots in vision?
human
Hi, I used to take ecstasy many years ago. One night at a party after taking one pill, I ended up seeing spots, not spots on the skin, but through my sight. It is more pronounced at night when the lights are off, I can see them more clearly. My moods vary, and sometimes I feel very bad i.e vary anxious, paranoid etc. It is very difficult to describe, but I have had this for many years and I do not know what the probelm is, or if it will ever go away. Is there a name for it so I can research the problem? I have also been taking amisulpride for mild psychosis for 10 years +.

Hello You have taken one dose of ecstasy or MDMA and then developed symptoms like seeing spots. Mood swings, anxiety, paranoid ideation. This is continuing since long time. Ectasy or 3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA) is an amphetamine class of drug and this can cause intense activation. There are many case reports which state that even with single dose individuals taking the drug may develop MDMA induced psychosis. Paranoid symptoms and seeing things are common symptoms.If the symptoms are causing significant distress to you then visit a Psychiatrist for detailed evaluation. Mild doses of anti-psychotics will help. You have already taken Amisulpiride for mild psychosis. Mild psychosis also increase risk of such symptoms.Thanks
