I can see how it would be potentially helpful, though regular use at recreational dosage might prove more harmful than helpful in the long run. Actually though the article is seeming more to suggest an MDMA experience can have lasting benefits rather than needing to take it regularly....which is actually a good way to approach it. I figured they'd just test a much lower dose than one would typically take recreationally, which with a drug like that not sure a lesser amount is the same. Like it could be the full on experience is beneficial not just very small amounts of the chemical on a daily basis.
