What Causes Loss Of Appetite After Taking MDMA?

I am 23, about 172 cm, and about 63 kgs. I was just wondering why I can't eat after taking MDMA. It has been 2.5 days and my stomach just doesn't feel hungry at all. I have also been drinking a LOT of water and tea, but haven't been going to the toilet much. Is there any explanation for this or do I just have to wait it out? Thanks so much.

Hi!
Welcome to HCM!

Loss of appetite is a well known side effect of MDMA which is also known as a party drug, "ecstasy" in short it is drug of abuse which has no defined therapeutic use as such but can cause a number of harmful effects.

Beside loss of appetite MDMA can also cause Anxiety, Irritability, Sadness
Impulsiveness, High blood pressure,Aggression, Sleep Disturbances, Reduced interest in and pleasure from sex.

Due to lack of appetite you are not able to eat for days together is it not? You are just dependent on a LOT of water and tea so at the most you get an urge to pass urine but since you are not taking any food as such where is the question of getting the urge to defecate????

It is my advice to you to discontinue MDMA (gradually if possible), try to find out other means of natural ways of recreation rather than taking harmful drugs.
The best gift God has given to us is a sound health which we have to preserve it.
I hope I clarified the toxic potential of MDMA....
Regards!
