Why do I always end up taking so much MDMA, even when I only want a tiny bit?

Because MDMA is addictive. This is because it increases the release of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine in the brain. These neurotransmitters play a crucial role in regulating mood, reward and pleasure. When you take MDMA, you may experience euphoria and a sense of connection with others, which can lead to taking more. The depletion of serotonin following MDMA use can also contribute to a 'Tuesday slump', which can leave you feeling low and tired; this may also prompt you to use again in order to alleviate these negative feelings.
MDMA is often used in social settings, such as parties and nightclubs, where social pressure to use the drug can increase. This can further increase the risk of addiction. The risk of addiction is also influenced by the frequency and quantity of use. Long-term use can lead to neurotoxicity, which can impair brain function and increase the risk of mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. Therefore, never use MDMA more than six times a year and keep doses on the lower side.
It is essential to be aware of the risks associated with the use of MDMA and to use this substance responsibly, particularly in therapeutic settings where the focus is on healing and personal growth. You can read more about the therapeutic use of MDMA via the links below.

MDMA is simply addictive, and you’re better off using psilocybin truffles because they help combat addiction.

MDMA just feels great, and you find yourself wanting more and more of it, especially when the effects are just wearing off. The contrast between the high and the low of MDMA is stark, which is why you want to get back to the high. Actually, you shouldn’t take too much in one go, nor should you take it more than a few times a year. Then it’s not too bad.
