简要总结
The investigator hypothesize that low-dose MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) will produce a sufficiently strong oxytocin stimulation in healthy controls and no relevant increase in patients. This study will confirm previously published data and provide important safety data with low-dose MDMA stimulation testing.

盲法说明
The order of the two MDMA doses is predefined in a randomization list. The randomization list is not known to the participants, the investigators and the study nurses involved in the trial. Participants and study personnel involved in supervising the session will be blinded to treatment order. The order is balanced.
