A few minor panic attacks between the trip but Aftermath was kinda rough, it left me with severely depleted serotonin that took awhile to get back up. I took it again about 3-4 months later and basically the same trip. This after math was a bit more rougher and left me feeling sick and very anxious.

Its been about 5 months since I've taken my last dose and thinking about MDMA gives me these "flashbacks", where I feel sick or nauseous, I have anxiety like my stomach just dropped like on a roller coaster. just by the thought of MDMA. My own thougts are causing me physical discomfort, is this PTSD ?
your location is part of the USA... the diagnostics for PTSD say the problems can not be because of medications, drugs or alcohol. so to answer your question can a person have PTSD from taking ecstasy (your word for this MDMA) the answer is no.

my suggestion is contact your treatment provider or a mental health treatment provider where you may be living / residing right now. they will be able to get you into the right programs you need for your drug usage and symptoms from using drugs.
