The high lasts for a couple of hours, but the depression - also called "Tuesday morning suicide" - can last days. Users will often chew on pacifiers to keep from grinding their teeth. Long-term Ecstasy use can lead to muscle breakdown, seizures, stroke, kidney problems, cardiovascular system failure and death.
About one in 10 teenagers has tried Ecstasy, and hundreds have died overdosing, Hajek said.

Used in combination with alcohol, these drugs can be even more dangerous. In recent years, there has been an increase in reports of club drugs used to commit sexual assaults.
Another type of popular club drug is date rape drugs, like rohypnol, which has 10 times the power of valium.

Rohypnol is often slipped into women's drinks because it removes inhibitions and causes blackouts and memory loss. "Women wake up in a ditch and don't even remember going to the club, " Hajek said. "Do you think they are going to report that?" Unlike alcohol, most club drugs have no scent, so it's hard for parents to detect. Parents should check their kids' eyes for dilated pupils and eyes rolling to the back of their heads as a sign of club drug use, Hajek said. "You can't hide your eyes," he said. "They are the window to the soul."
