^you could charge people for 'therapy' and then give them 'practice' time answering phones for a separate company, who you could also charge.
The only cost to you would be advertising/location/equipment, etc., but after all of those capital costs you'd be rolling in the dough...assuming people want the exposure therapy in the first place.

Probably a solid quarter of my clients have significant anxiety issues with calling people or answering the phone. Can make setting up an appointment pretty friggen difficult.
The only way to make anxiety F off is to "feel the fear and do it anyway", and do it often - so if you want to stop having so much anxiety about something like using the phone, make yourself make increasingly more calls everyday. When you're feeling high anxiety, take a normal breath in and breathe out for 8 seconds. It increases your co2 and decreases your oxygen, which makes you feel sleepy, and your brain is like.. wtf? How can I be panicked AND sleepy/relaxed. I can't.

Strangely enough, I'm transferring into air traffic control and out of commercial aviation, so my entire (potential) career will consist of talking to people on a phone of sorts. Something about the phraseology, organization, and anonymity of it makes it very enjoyable for me, though.

Whatever. Any pills that I may or may have not consumed in my life are in no way as damaging and addicting as the poison produced by pharmaceutical companies. Yuck.

I read some interesting research in my undergrad on extacy (I took an entire course on drugs.. super interesting shit). In monkeys, after one dose of e, 6 months later they had significantly reduced synaptic connections. Shizer.

Always. Heart-healthy is the way to be! Plus a daily dose of Vitamin D to make up for being a ghost that lives in Transylvania.

I'm currently teaching part of an undergrad course, Drugs in a Societal Context.
What is general considered the "best" literature on MDMA's chronic effects is at least in part here on erowid: http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/mdma/mdma_neurotoxicity1.shtml
Basically, there has not been any truly effective research done on the matter but as with any psychoactive substance, frequent and chronic use of it will have negative effects in the long run. Just use your head, ya dummies, and space out your usage.

I'll see if I can find the study I'm referencing later... My prof was pretty cool and said the same thing you just did. Know what you're taking, know the risks and be smart.
