XXXXXXXXX

Does anyone have any reflections regarding the use or abuse of Ecstacy (MDMA)??? For me the good is really good, but the next day or a few days after can be downright terrible....sometimes it is depressing, other times it makes me very irritable.

Hi Optimistic, I know people who used to take ecstasy quite a bit during their partying and clubbing days. I know that lows are awful. I've also heard a lot about the long-term effects of ecstasy and their pretty bad; therefore, I recommend staying off and away from this drug [and all others].

Sending you many positive vibes and wishing you all of the best.

I used to do it a lot in college. Then at a certain point I started feeling anxious and uncomfortable when I did it. It was the complete opposite effect that I was originally used to so I just stopped cold. Then I went to a music festival last summer and found out about pure MDMA or "Molly" as the peddlers called it. I tried it and got this super intense euphoria for about an hour then immediately crashed. Then I had a hard time enjoying anything for the whole next day. I wised up when I got to Bonnaroo and learned that the music is all the stimulation I needed to feel high.

Thank you both for the input. I used to do it a great deal, and it had its moments. Now it is something I use very sparingly....maybe once or twice a year, with the intent of dissolving negative attatchments of my awareness. It has helped me at times to let go of some unresolved anger issues, but only with a very controlled ingestion and theraputic intent. I do feel it can be medicinal if used proplerly, but like any medication, can be destructive if abused.

Oh and by the way, Welcome to the site Spinning!!!!

Hey thanks! Glad to be here. It's going to be a tough week I can already tell. But its good to have a place to vent a little and hopefully learn some ways to quit without going through complete hell.

It's interesting that you mention using E "very sparingly". I am also an advocate of enjoying in moderation. I do the same with mushrooms, because I believe that when used under the right conditions, with close friends, they can help me to expand my depth of awareness. It's almost like they allow me to tap into the energy of the universe and more clearly explore the facets of my own mind. I usually end up with a "glow" after using them rather than the way most drugs make you come down. But again, using them too often would be unhealthy because then I would just be trying to escape rather than explore.

I am trying to quit meth. I wish I could do the same with that drug too, but the withdrawals are so intense I doubt I could do it. I wonder if I can just ween myself off rather than quit cold turkey. I know I'll have such a strong urge to do it on Saint Patty's Day.

Stay strong spinning!

being some one like yourself that equates music and drugs together i can relate to you talking about just finding the music. i went to a few furthur shows last week and all my friends were eating molly and doses and i said no, for the first time in i dont know how long. there is power in it. i dont know the power of meth, of course everyone has heard of it, just not first hand for me. But all i can say is your worth more without it. you can do it i know you can, you can lean on me, i'll lean back.

You want the real truth about this garbage> I have multiple sclerosis now because of it and was diagnosed at 26. There are several doctors and nurses who told me this is why I am sick. You do not know who makes the pills, what they put in them and what they do to your brain. (MINE IS FULL OF SPOTS) I take a shot every day. Mind you the disease is very expensive and if you don't take the medicine you will lose your ability to walk talk or swallow

My MDMA experiences are all wonderful, the come-down can be awful, but i would have a few ativan and oxycodone laying around from surgeries and such. basicly my nights would start at 5 pm all the pals would get together, start railing and popping their pills, usually singles or doubles, most with a high MDMA and amphetamine ratio....some people took em with adderall for more speedy affects i enjoyed the euphoria i got from railing throuhout the night....anyways after we got back from the rave or party or whatever we did i would suffeciently medicate myself....40-60 mgs of oxycodone snorted popped or smoked, than 3 mg ativan and that made my comedown allloottt more mellow and allowed me to sleep a few hours after my last dose of mdma. i remember i got so deep into my mdma use that my body wouldnt let me use it anymore....after i took one pill i would puke bloody foamy shit, roll balls for like 45 minutes than be fine....mdma, what a drug

I'm totally done with it. Yes, when I took it, for the most part I felt on top of the world, sociable, would dance for hours (i love dancing). It's always followed by some down later on in the week, and possibly missing work because I feel anxious or depressed. I dont want to take anything anymore that can cause me to permanently lose pleasure in things that naturally create pleasure. Life is good as it is, and I dont want to convince myself otherwise.

I used to use to take it all the time with my friends we used take a lot . one time i took four double stack pills in one night life was just one big party, but in the end all those parties and people that i thought were my friends were not, and most of them are either dead or in jail. I still to this day have to deal with the aftermath of my choices I have a had time remembering things.I SPEND MOST OF MY TIME NOW DAYS WITH MY SON.

Ive been a big fan since the first time I took it in my teens, no bad trips or memories on it, however after several years of taking 10+ pills a night every few weekends, it simply got old & now when I do it I take one pill and it generally gives me the even-ness feeling of being drunk without the bs that comes with alcohol. Id quit it entirely, but, I pretty much suck at quitting.
