Teenagers who take ecstasy are much more likely to suffer with depression, according to Canadian researchers.
Researchers at the School of Psychology at the University of Montreal studied thousands of secondary school teens and discovered that those who used the recreational drugs MDMA (ecstasy) and meth/amphetamine (speed) were likely to develop depression.
The popularity of speed and ecstasy has spread from the rave scene and nightclubs to the general population, including secondary school children. According to the researchers, both drugs are often taken at the same time.
