> had died from taking MDMA

How is it possible that a retired psychotherapist is using interchangably MDMA word and Extasy word, making a tremendous mistake in your own professional field?

> The coroner said that "water intoxication"

Google tells that it happened after 7 liters of water consumed in one take.

Because he was not giving a personal opinion - he was talking about a media report:

Good Ecstasy is pure mdma and fillers not necessarily others drugs.

Ecstasy is a street name, and its meaning can vary a lot depending on where you are. Around Berlin you’ll find lots of people that call only MDMA pills ecstasy, while Emma is street MDMA, for example.

I can confirm that in my entire life in the US, no one has ever called pure MDMA "ecstasy". The latter has always referred to MDMA cut with something.

There may be different subcultures in the US that I don't know about, of course.

Seems like you're talking about yourself frankly, they are not separate drugs. There is usually other stuff in extasy but otherwise it's just MDMA lil bro
