MDMA can eliminate feelings of envy and zero-sum competition by dissolving self-referential concerns.

“all that was just gone and there was no Associated inebriation I mean it was just my experience wasn't just that's the thing with MDMA that makes it sort of quite distinct and special from some of these other agents right is there is no sense of altered consciousness yeah it can be kind of speedy and it also depends on whether you're getting treated if you're talking about your mas is yeah of course when they come up with stimulants it's a different story but yeah but really pure MDMA doesn't seem to really alter your consciousness in any way yeah way that you know LSD would right yeah I mean there's no psychic it's not it's not considered really a psychedelic it doesn't have any of those visionary or hallucinatory yes doom or is it a pathogen verse yeah and theage incorrect yeah yeah so having lost all that I just I recognized that one just had how much I loved him and how that was synonymous with wanting him to be happy and in some basic sense his happiness would be my own right so that's the capacity for envy would just will completely went out the window there's just no way to feel a zero-sum contest with somebody who you love in that way”
