The recently released Global Drug Survey has revealed that Irish people use MDMA more frequently than in any other country. 

The data in the survey is based on nearly 120,000 submissions from over 50 countries, who were polled on their use of illegal substances and alcohol. 

Ireland tops the charts, with people using the drug for an average of 15 days across the entire year. 

The study also had some interesting insight into the ways in which Irish people use the drug, which is considered a Class A substance in many countries.

An average of 64 per cent of Irish females and 53.1 per cent of males take a quarter or half of an MDMA laced pill to start with in the under 25s age bracket.

Over 70.3 per cent of females and 62.7 per cent of males also choose to assess the strength of the drugs by consuming a small amount before taking any more.

MDMA pills in Ireland sell for an average of €7.10, while a gram of the powder substance costs €46.50, according to a Mixmag report.

Of the roughly 25,000 MDMA users from around the world who took part in the survey, 1.2% sought emergency medical treatment after taking the drug.

After her infamous arrest last week, Blac Chyna has admitted to being drunk at the Austin International Airport, but according to TMZ, pills were found in the model's luggage which she is claiming weren't hers.

The police found two pills with designs on them in her sunglasses case and a field test revealed that it was MDMA.

Sources close to Blac say she has no idea how the pills ended up in her case and she didn't even pack her own bags for the trip to London.

She also claims that her usual assistants were not with her, and a "different person packed for her," which is leading to her framed theory, reports the website.

It was also claimed that Chyna is bewildered about the drugs because the type of pills that were found are uncommon. She says that nobody has used that type of ecstasy for years, and favours the powered form instead.

The model also alleges that she would have no idea how to get access to that type of drug and she plans on using the "it's not my drug" defence if she's charged with possession. 

Ah, Chyna, what have you got yourself into.
