NWlight said: Your informed consent thing is BS. I read and re-read all the info like 5 times.
you have to be at least 21, the study is for your dissertation, and the test is trying to learn more about the MDMA experience in autistic adults.
What is the problem here.....
I'm not sure what your primary complaint is. That the informed consent is too complicated? I am accountable to an Ethics Committee, and they require all of that information. Do you have suggestions for improvements?

Idk, I just consider myself to be pretty intelligent and I read the questions and your information multiple times. The questions themselves seemed easy and for some reason I kept getting them wrong 
oh well 
edit: 
question 3 got me. ignore EVERYTHING I said

It's good to see that someone cares to do this research . I'm sure the OP didn't start this thread for peeps to mock people suffering from autism so please reframe from doing so .Good luck with your research

I am excited to read how autistic people have benefited? from the MDMA experience. I wish I could participate but I'm not 21 yet... I will make a note of this to check back in a few months. Enjoy your research.

I have taken mdma with someone who has Asperger's Syndrome one time. He really seemed a lot more social that night. I am interested to see the results of this study.

I have aspergers & yeah it can really suck at times, but since I started writing, playing guitar, expanding my mind & roaming through different avenues I've become somewhat "normal" or not really normal, different, but able to communicate & have fun in social situations. I'm really strange, but I make people laugh & feel good usually. Alot of people are fond of me because I'm very insightful & able to break things down & put things in a different perspective. I agree that it can be a terrible disease though, I can tell that my friend has autism & he speaks in a very monotonic tone of voice & can't really express himself, the spectrum affects everyone differently. The worst part about my friend is everyone else makes fun of him & tells him to speak up etc. I'm the only one who helps him out & advice him to not take them too seriously, because they're just imbeciles picking on people "under" them.
But yeah psychedelics & MDMA have definitely helped me along the way. I think LSD/DMT have helped the best though, because it's as if they gave me more intuition/put yourself in their place/body/mind reading abilities which is something alot of people on the spectrum are lacking.

I'm sure I have a mild case of asbergers, I fit the criteria. I feel as if MDMA will hve the same effect on them as any other stimulant or alcohol. Psychedelics may help more long term or make it worse in some cases.

I saw that on 60 minutes! People like that are savants, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savant_syndrome, it really is incredible. It comes in lots of shapes and forms. The ones with musical talent never cease to blow my mind.
For example, Glenn Gould supposedly had something like aspergers.
Same with this kid..
incredible.

This is a cool thing to be researching especially since this year is the 100 year anniversary of mdma being patented.

I have mild aspergers and I dont see it in the least bit as a hindrance or a problem. It's society that views it that way. I dont think it's something that needs to be "cured". MDMA, however, has allowed me to experience empathy in a way that I always felt normal people seemed to. I guess in a way Ive always felt like an outsider looking in when I see other people experience true empathy as opposed to my systemized version. It tends to put people off when you look into their eyes for too long or dont look at them at all.
I guess the worst part (socially) is that feeling that you know you are fucking up(socially, in terms of offending, alienating or hurting others) but dont know how you are fucking up or how to stop fucking up. With mdma I can see all of that, and read faces. Normally I cannot read faces and the only way I can gauge someone's mood is if they say "Im mad" or "im sad" or "im having a blast" and then I utilize my leaned response to someone being in that mood...whether it be leaving them alone, giving them a hug or smiling.
