what effect has ecstasy had on your lives?

Just curious.....

When you answer this try...to seperate the drugs from the music.......

and let's see where this goes?

for me......it's been mixed.....i'd have to say that overall it made my life harder for a while.......made me alot more unhappy or numb- during the periods in-between dosing.....ig. work/school week. And then it just got to the point where I couldn't even get high for two minutes before I was mashed.......and then I quit.
but that's just me.....

can we talk about it?

peace

I don't like doing E anymore cuz for one, the chances of me getting high off one pill is not very high and I really hate the come down off E. I used to do a lot but I really don't care for it anymore.

It's all about moderation... I never got into that habit of dropping every weekend. I know people who have, and it basically ruins the experience for them in the long run and they end up quitting, and usually go through a pretty bad state of depression after.

I only drop once in a while, once every month or two months, and even so it's still lost some of its magic over the past year. And I do go through some mild depression the week after, but I know those are the consequences and I accept them. I do everything possible to reduce the bad side effects through pre and post loading with 5-HTP & vitamins, which does help but is definitely not a cure for the comedown.

I'm still enjoying my experiences on E, when the day comes that the negatives (namely the comedown) out weigh the posotives, then I'll quit. Hard to say when that will be, but probably not for at least a year or longer.

Interesting Topic.

I personally have only done E once in my life. And to tell you the truth it didn't really do much. I'm not sure if it was because i didn't know how to feel it of I didn't take enough for me. But either way I make a concious effort to party without the drugs.

I think it has a lot do with the fact that i didn't get into the scene at the same time i tried the drugs. Therefore I've learned to enjoy the experiance without tripping. Knowing that I can have a wicked time if I'm sober means a lot.

I do totally believe in moderation and feel that ecstasy use every once in a while is is fine. However, it seems this is kind of hard to do. It scares me when ppl drop multiple pills a night and do it every weekend. I have friends who do that and it definetly affects the rest of their lives. "Depression" is definetly the most noticable side effect to me.

Agreed, but the come down sux.
i wouldn't say that it brought me down, because it didn't, i don't know maybe i'm one of those lucky people... i would say that this drug opened my mind up more - made me a more positive person.

I've said this to you before... the reason why you haven't been getting that high is because you probably got shitty pills!! When i get GOOD pills u usually feel them... and you know it's true... so really... your main reason for not doin it is because you don't want to waste your money on it, due to the fact that too many shit pills go around now adays and you totally hate the come-down like you said.

I used to be so against e, and then I tried it when PVD came to town one or two years ago and had a wicked night. Since then I've done it about 10 times and the experience is getting shittier every time. The funny thing is that I feel pretty good the next day, but sometimes the mornings coming home after the club I'm really fucked up, like when I couldn't speak or hear after Carl Cox. I think I'm gonna stop doing that but I'm glad I did it. It opened my mind to things and feelings I could never have imagined. I agree with Malice, E did make me a better person and I learned a lot about myself. Thank you E.

I’m with you there Jazz, That’s the way I am with E also I take it every here and there it’s what makes it well nice every time you take it. Good E is a big thing also, if you don’t get good E that’s what fucks you up the most cause its what they cut it with that fucks you up the most like if its cut morphine, speed or DXM.

In the beginning I was always trying to duplicate my high. Never worked. Years later I take E in sparse moderation and it's as enjoyable as ever. Also much less expensive than that other party drug. Not K, not Jib... guess?
