    Still a lot for your first time. Took me about 5 years to move from doing more than one a night (although they were £15 each when I started).

    Doing halves is sensible. However, I would suggest that starting off taking a high amount is only going to push your tolerance right up. That's how people end up takign stupid amounts, like 10 pills in one night.

    My tolerance has went up to 5/6 pills a night. It's so shite now.

    I'm meant to be having MDMA for Tuesday but I'm not doing anything. I don't even enjoy it much anymore.

    Plus I told one of my oldest mates everything I've ever done and he was really, really, REALLY disappointed in me.

    He's never ever been so pissed off at me in his life, so I really need to stop.

    i think thats more to do with people not being sensible and just eating them all up.

    i started taking them the beginning of last year and i still only take 3 pills in one night, occassionally 4. i start with a full one and then top it up by halves.

    yeah take a break from it if you're feeling like that. i did after new year for 3-4 weeks.

    unfortunately there are some people you can't tell. :( i could never tell ym old housemates because they would go mental and just wouldn't understand. my mates here at home just let me get on with it though.

    That's quite a lot to be taking in one night, after only a year.

    Even after a month or so I still needed about 5/6 pills to feel even a mild buzz. My mouth was chewed to fuck, my lips red raw. It's just seriously not worth it now, I miss just getting happy on booze. Cheaper, too.

    I know, it's really killing me that he's not replied to my email. I lost my fucking phone on Thursday night so I can't even phone him/text him or owt.

    Ugh, I couldn't bear to lose him as a mate. I can't even feel sorry for myself as it's all my fault. :(

    Wah.

    I've been doing them on/off for a year or so, and I still only need 1/2 pills a night.

    Saying that, I don't do it every weekend, I do it maybe once a month? I chose to do it that way so I didn't build up a daft tolerence - a mate of mine got to the point of eating about 15 a night, which is fucking ridiculous.

    ETA ... DrPirate - this is where all the fun starts now :thumb: enjoy!

    I've always found hangovers to be worse than a comedown.

    I suppose it's because I've been getting progressively worse hangovers; being ill the next day, splitting headache, all things I never used to get when I was young un.

    Comedowns are relatively tolerable. VinylVicky mentioned the horrible taste in the mouth, and for me, that's the worst part :yuck:. I don't actually get the depressed feeling usually till about Wednesday, but unless I've got lots on at uni, it usually doesn't get on top of me.

    I'm just talking about pills though. Speed comedowns are brutal and can last for weeks IME, and with MDMA powder it's best to know that the higher you go, the harder you fall.

    I'd prefer feeling bad for 1 day with a hangover instead of the next 3 days or whatever on a comedown.. I get depressed with hangovers too but at least its gone at the latest by the time u go to bed.

    i absolutely hate hangovers. i feel so ill all day and i also get this paranoid feeling. i think thats because you don't really know what you're doing when you're drunk and my memory is always pretty hazy too. so i'm always thinking shit did i make a fool out of myself etc -its all very irrational.

    last time i took drugs was friday and i felt really happy yesterday and even happier today. i didn't feel ill in the slightest just tired through lack of sleep. i think its because i enjoy myself so much when im out that the feeling carries on through the weekend.

    so you don't really get a comedown apart from being tired? A lot of people seem to really hate comedowns, i guess it depends on the person!

    I know what you mean about the hangovers though, it has to be a decent night for the feeling the next day to be worth it... I just think i couldnt be arsed with feeling as down as I do on a hangover (which i know will be gone the next day) for 3 days or however long its gonna last on a proper come down :/

    I'm the same - I'm just a bit tired for a couple of days and a bit spaced out. I put that down to lack of food as I always improve massively once I've eaten loads.

    I rarely get the feeling down thing.

    Some people I know just cry randomly for days though...

    I've only been doing them for a year so I feel fine. Sometimes I think i feel a bit crappy say Tuesday or Wenesday but other times I don't notice. I would let you know how I feel this week but I'll probably have PMT so won't be able to tell :p

    I have a friend who has cained them for years and he gets really down for a few days. But he reckons hes just a melancholy person anyway. But yeh, everyone is different.

    You've got to be kidding. A hangover lasts one day. A comedown lasts all week.

    Depends though doesnt it, everyone is different!

    I think a bad hangover is far worse than a come down.
    After taking pills I feel a bit shitty and demotivated the next day, but thats the worst of it really, after that I just get a bit tired for a couple days after... but I dont see that as being such a bad thing compared to a bad hang over.

    A bad hang over for me now is horrible, its like a massive migrane, feeling like i'm going to be sick every 5 mines etc etc...

    The only people I hear that from are people who haven't been doing pills for very long. Believe me, they get worse.

    I've been doing pills for maybe 5 years, sometimes taking it easy, sometimes week in, week out. I don't tend to find the comedowns bad - again it's just catching up on sleep after 48 hours without that gets me. I'm usually fine by about Wednesday.

    I will admit that I usually restrict the biggest nights to a Friday night, carrying on through until Saturday, giving myself Sunday to recoup. When I'm not working I just can't afford to be off the ball.

    I've done a couple of big sessions ending up at Wrong @ Herbal in Shoreditch... Finished up there at about midnight on the Sunday. There's people do that every week. I just can't imagine doing that and being in any fit state for work on the Monday.

    I've been doing pills over ten years and still find a bad hangover to be more unpleasant. Though your right in the fact my comedowns have become progressively worse. I never get these midweek blues people talk of.
