I never suffer that during a comedown. Ever. Although having coke after a drinking session sometimes gave me a kicking headache... I don't do that any more as it's just crap. Not a fan of coke - overpriced and overrated IMO.
Been doing them for about 5 years now, and hangovers have become awful. Sometimes i'll literally be throwing up all day long, shivering, splitting headache, paranoia, the whole works.
Comedowns don't last for an entire week for me
I'd rather have couple of days of mild side affects to an entire day of being debilitated by a hangover. At lest with a comedown i can function if i need to, which ain't the case with booze.,
Don't think Ive experienced a 'serious' comedown from E as of yet. Though, that speed pill was another story. Horrible.
Ecstasy is a sweet feeling! But be careful! Make sure you don't jump in the deep end like I did. I did one the first time, 5 the next night! Its hard to see what there doing to you, until you realize your everyday common sense and logic is thrown out the door.
But in the mean time does this mean we can go on family clubbing outings.
Also where where you when you took them?
I think it took about 7 or 8 years of use for my comedowns to get bad.
The most I've ever taken is 1, I'm quite small though so 1 is prob enough for me.
If you can take 1 and have a good night then thats great, its better for your brain that way, the heat generated by higher doses and the length of the high are big factors in neuron damage.
I don't think I'll be taking 2 next time, probably just one.
Yes it does
I was at the Electric Ballroom, twas fun
OMG i'm so excited - lets go out and play!!!
hmmm sounds like how i used to be!!! off it all now tho
The amount of pills some of you are taking is a bit concerning. I wonder if there is a lack of understanding about the way MDMA and E work. Once you have reached the maximum dosage and the chemicals in your brain have been released, re-dosing does nothing but increase the negative side effects. You won't feel the same effects after the original dose. Taking 10 pills in one night only increases the damage you are doing to your brain and body.
i still think thats a load of shite, i can safely say i get fairly more whopped from 10 pills than 3 any day.. and yes the negative effects also increase when you start taking the piss, but its wrong to say theres no difference!
and you won't feel the same effects after the orignal dose? theres been many a time where ive been a lot more flyin later on in the night.. so i also disagree
and this whole taking halves and single pills does nothing for me.. yea yea im sure i was just gettin shitty pills but i dont see how this is the case if lots of other people who are takin the same pills are getting rightly fucked .. im putting it down to some sort of natural tolerance.. i need twice the amount as some people to get the same effects (yet a lot of the time i wont feel any worse than them the next day)
Read up on how MDMA works if you like. Or stay ignorant, up to you, I don't really give a fuck tbh.
After around 6 decent pills, they begin to have very little effect.
Of course if you have pills containg a mixture of chemicals there's every cahnce they may continue to get you more and more fucked.
Which is exactly what Blagsta is saying, you will still feel the pills, but stumbling around not being able to string three words together isnt really what MDMA is for.
Exactly, when I used to take large amounts of pills, I'd always try and get different pills. For example, when I did my max of 18 pills in a night last summer, I was tripple dropping one pink Kangaroo, one X-Factor triangle and one Double Cherry each time.
Well the comedown and even the PMT didn't arrive
i still completely disagree .. 6 - 8 is a good number to get me up and flying.. and im not stumbling around or lying on the floor chewing my eye brows, im on the same level as most other people.. and when i start taking more it keeps the buzz going
i can relate to e's having no effect, but thats at the end of the night or the next morning when you're down and you're not getting back up properly.. but in the first loada hours it keeps bringing you up up up
i can remember taking shy of 8 in an hour (silly dick sizing contest) and i can assure you i was buzzing alright, and it was an immense buzz compared to 2 or 3
so aye my theory is that it doesnt change from an mdma buzz to more of a speedy buzz until you've rid it out and been flyin for a good 6 or 7 hours, then yes, all its doin is keeping you up and kicking .. disagree all you like im speaking from the unfortunate expierence of doing in week in week out, mightnt apply to everyone but thats the way it worked for me
and blagsta..fair enough you've been at it for far longer but from reading your posts i gather you only ever take small amounts at a time, which is more sensible, but doesnt really put you in a position to argue about large amounts
tbh, its the younger generation that seem to. Most people my age will get up to 5 over a weekend. However it often involves copious amounts of alcohol too.
I don't have to inject crack to be able to give harm reduction advice about it to clients at work...
