Just to give you my perspective on the situation (in case you care) I have done ecstacy 4 times in my life, never more than one pill in a night and never more than half a pill at a time. I have only ever seriously rolled once in my life, and that was because I dropped two halves in quick succession after about 8-10 beers - it was like moving in slow motion in case you were wondering.

Anyway, to be honest, I just do pills because of the false sense of energy it gives me. While I'm still pumped at the start of the night I won't do any, but then, as the night goes on and my legs start hurting, I may do a cheeky half to keep me going, and another half after that to sweep me up to a higher sensual level. And even then, I'd only ever do E on a big night never, say, on a Wednesday night down at the pub.

Now perhaps I haven't experienced the highs that some of you guys have, but at the same time I certainly haven't experienced any lows either. When the feeling wears off (I'm always still out partying at this point btw) it's incredibly smooth, so that I never go from rolling my tits off straight into a period of depression or lethargy, but rather the feeling tends to stay with me - in a watered down kinda way - for about 48 hours after dropping. The downside is that I can't sleep properly during this time (I tend to get these fucked up, semi-conscious dreams when trying to sleep after taking E) but at the same time I still feel all tingly and motivated. I do feel on edge at times as well (even a moderately loud sound may send me out of my skin) but generally, from my experience, the come-down experience from restrained ecstacy use is little more than a minor inconvenience.

I'm not condoning it btw, just saying that when done responsibly, ecstacy is a relatively safe drug. Overdo it though (as with anything else) and it's likely to mess you up.

The fond memories I have from taking E far outweigh any potential problems I may have later on (given that, as I am a moderate user, they are likely to be minimal) and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

Without wishing to sound like I'm condoning the stuff, I'd recommend that people do a half a pill on an occasion and tell me - with a straight face - that it didn't make the night more enjoyable. It's not about escaping reality, it's about enhancing it - and whether you get that from a small, white pill or from some other source, surely it all amounts to the same thing in the long run?

Nicely put Renegade, and lucky you for being able to enjoy 1 pill in 2 halves

I wish I could still do that

Originally posted by WhiteRussian Well....duh. I for one can't understand people who do drugs that don't READ UP on it before they try it. First time I dropped by 1.5 years ago I'd read alot about MDMA, seratonin, 5-htp, dopamin and so on, I knew alot about it before I tried it. It's common sense not to do MDMA too often, or it looses its magic, which would be a shame since it's such a wonderful substance, that everyone should try,

Who said i did it OFTEN??? At most i did it probebly once every 2 weeks and only one at a time. I know people who drop every other day, even go to class tripping out. This thread wasnt started to criticize, it was to offer opinions and share experiences with others. I now know obviously that i was doing it too often before, since i had lost almost all joy that i once experienced with E.

MODERATION...

I believe that with any drug, the more you do of it the effect you start getting from it is not what is intended.....most likely a bad feeling, and ofcourse the damage done to your health!

the most i've done is 4 1/2 pills in 1 nite, yet somehow I still remember Armin's set....along with other things after, after that nite I realized you can keep doing more, but its not worth it....and the crash is even worst after doing some heavy dosage, now I usually take 2 or sometimes even 1, which is about once a month when I goto party, although I party more in the school year (go figure?!?!)

Well then you finally realised how to use MDMA then! Good,
Now share that knowledge with your friends who drop more often than you!
My point was that if you had read up more before you tried the first time you probably wouldn't have had the bad experiences with it that you obviously had,
It's such a harmless and nice treat when done in moderation... *sighs happily*
