Addiction to designer drug 3-MMC is on the rise, with accidents occurring weekly in high-risk party environments due to its combination of use alongside illicit drugs like cocaine and speed.
The fluctuating legality status as a New Psychoactive Drug has given producers an opportunity for law evasion through slight modification of chemical structure. This has contributed significantly to rising levels of addiction and poses significant health risks for consumers.
3-Methylmethcathinone, is a powerful illegal designer drug. Its effects closely resemble those of MDMA and cocaine: users feel elated, but this sensation only lasts from 3 to 7 hours before being replaced by unbearable withdrawal symptoms such as coldness and misery if no other dose follows suit shortly after.
As expected with any addiction, one’s dependence on 3-MMC can quickly spiral out of control resulting in potentially devastating consequences both mentally and physically.
3-MMC can create an energised and joyful experience, leaving you feeling with a state of euphoria. Its effects can enable long nights full of fun activities – allowing for endless hours filled with joyous celebration.
As the use of 3-MMC continues to rise, people find themselves needing more and more of it in order to be satisfied. Without it they can experience feelings that nothing else is enjoyable or rewarding, leading them into a pattern where work, school and relationships are neglected as their obsession with using grows.
For some users attempting moderation or abstinence on their own may not be possible without additional help.
3-MMC can be very addictive and damaging, with potentially hazardous long-term effects on the user’s physical and mental health. Besides causing depression, suicidal thoughts, significant weight loss, impaired vision as well as neurological damage and psychotic experiences have been linked to its use.
As 3-MMC is relatively inexpensive and recently legal, it has become a popular recreational drug for young people. Those who take the substance on a regular basis have reported feelings of cravings which are analogous to cocaine addiction – an indication that this drug can be just as addictive if used regularly.
Research into potential harms caused by taking 3-MMC show that there may even be neurological damage associated with its use; making basic motor skills such as walking more difficult in those affected negatively by the drugs’ effects.

3-Methylmethcathinone, commonly known as “pussy” or “3-m”, is a synthetic stimulant drug and the successor to 4-MMC. 4-MMC was officially banned in 2012 by the government due to its addictive properties, prompting 3-MMC to appear on the market as a legal alternative. Unfortunately, since October 28th 2021, 3-MMC has been added to List II of the Opium Act and is now considered an illegal substance.
The risk of taking 3-MMC is increasing due to its effects resembling MDMA and cocaine. This drug produces a euphoric feeling, but this sensation does not last very long as it wears off after around an hour and a half. As it begins to wear off, users feel cold and depressed, prompting them to take additional doses in order to avoid the miserable state that follows when the drug’s effects have worn off.
Furthermore, the day after taking 3-MMC users experience even more extreme withdrawal symptoms such as difficulty concentrating and lack of motivation that prevent them from attending work or school. This spiral of increased doses followed by increasingly worse withdrawal effects can quickly lead to addiction if users are not careful.
