Abstract
This study explores ten psychoactive substance users' explanations of their MDMA usage with the aim of investigating how users explain their own substance abuse, and secondly to ascertain if and/or how their accounts diverge or converge with currently used models. Thirdly, it is intended to explore the extent to which users' accounts might contribute to a deeper understanding of repeated psychoactive behaviour.
