I'm 200% with Jazz and Dj MG on this. When bitterSweet comes, it's my 1 year anniversary and I've learned alot of things over this past year, maybe I can help with a few things.
"Candy" (that's what i call e) does add to the music so much. With the candy combined, I get such a high off the music. To put it simply, it makes the music 3 times better, so that's the bargain.
But MODERATION IS THE KEY, don't dose every weekend, you gotta have a "buffer" time.
To anyone who takes candy, BE RESPONSIBLE AND LEARN EVERYTHING YOU CAN LEARN ABOUT IT, that's what I did.
YOU HAVE TO CHECK YOUR CANDY, I always go to http://www.dancesafe.org and check my stuff, make sure it's 100% MDMA
I also suggest you to read the SlideShow they have, it's a slideshow showing you exactly what your brain goes through. ALOT OF PEOPLE DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW IT WORKS.
Suggestions that I can give from my experiences when taking candy:
1) don't do liquor with/before/after it, it slows down the serotonin production or something
2) Don't eat too much before you take it, cuz it gets absorbed into your bloodstream through digestion, just like if you drink on an empty stomach --> you get hit from just one beer
3) LOAD UP ON PROTEIN!! it repelenishes your serotonin....you basicaly want to eat more things that have "5 htp" which help to make serotonin , DRINK MILK, CRANBERRY JUICE, BANANA AND EAT MEAT (full of protein)
4) REST BEFORE YOU DOSE, TAKE A NAP BEFORE THE RAVE/CLUB
5) TAKING MORE E DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU WILL GET HIGH! If you already drained all the serotonin you have then it's pointless, you're just getting high off the speed or that's laced on your E
6) CHECK YOUR CANDY ALWAYS AND GET IT FROM PPL YOU TRUST!!
7) Stretch before you go dance all night.
Sorry, kinda got side tracked....but back to answering your question:
E has made my parties alot funner and I don't regret it, I just hope that I can maintain discipline and don't increase my dosage. But yeah, the calm down sucks. Try to concentrate on the music when you calm down.
I think ppl should talk about this stuff more often so ppl know what's good and what's bad....no point keeping it all a secret.
take care guys

I've never tried ecstasy...I'd like to, but I'm a little hesitant to do so...I dunno, I feel like I'm gonna have a buzz, or that something will happen...from what I hear it makes you more paranoid...and I don't really like the idea of OD'ing, even though I doubt you can OD off one pill...but you know, there's still that doubt...
...maybe one day I'll suck it up, and pop a pill or two... |

Personally i can safely say that E has had a positive effect on my life. I've never really been big into pills so most of the time i'll do a pill every 3-4 months (and even then it's only 1 or 2). I think it's actually made me a more mellow person and i've become more closer to my friends who i dropped with. Honestly though I think that E should be done in moderation because the fact is that you can get tolerent every quickly. I can't imagine what people who drop multiple times must feel like because usually after dropping i get a little week for a few days (hehe i think it's called the E-Cold).
So I guess as far as i'm concerned i'll not stop doing E. Although i'll only save it for the really special occasions like PVD or Armin van Burren ;)
Also...I find that E gives me more energy to dance and also helps me ignore other annoying factors in clubs like pushy crowds ;) |

I used to be soooo against any form of drugs. Seems rather silly now, but yea there was a time when drugs disgusted me and wanted nothing to do with anyone who does it.
I still don't know what made me decide to take my first pill, but I believe it was curiosity after a while. I still remember my first pill ...'Orange Butterfly'.........WOOOHHHOOOOO SICKNESS!!!!!1 :D the rest is history.
I do agree that for people who take E, that if you've nevered taken a 'good' pill before then you will never understand the euphoria. Out of all the pills I have ever taken, I can say that there were only very rare occassions that I got great hits.
I don't do it as much now (havn't touched it in 6 months) simply because the stuff that is out there is not what it used to be.
It's odd because I don't experience the depression that a lot of my friends feel. If I do, it was very mild. Although when I was taking it heavily I noticed that there were times at night when I'm sleeping that I get 'temporary paralysis' for a few seconds while I'm sleeping. This might seem a little weird to some people but I don't know how to describe it. Every night for a few months I would be awaken in the middle of the night from my sleep. My mind would be wide awake and I would be 100% aware of what's happening and everything that's around me....the only thing is I can't move at all. I would be completely paralyzed for a few excrutiating seconds, can't even move my eyelids or fingers :eek: It would take a few heart pounding seconds to get full control of my body again. This went on for a little while.
Now that I haven't touched any form of drugs for a while now (excluding weed of course) I don't get that problem anymore.
But in the end, I'm ever so glad that I have tried E. I remember having some of the best times ever. If I had to do it all over again I would. It has made me a much better person and so much more open minded. It has affected my life quite a bit, more for the better. |

Tried it for the first time summer 1999 at the freelance rave in Europe with a friend who's a DJ. I was soooo against the drugs, was never to touch them. He said to me that I should do it, just for the experience, said was sure I will appreciate it. Boy did I. Didn't tell me what to expect. ;)
Was blown away :p to say the least
It opened my mind, saw the light -> am so in love with life.
I don't do it often, special occasions only, once in a month or two, no more. I know I will never get hooked on it because I have university to think of, career, etc. Besides, heard that the effect dies with time, especially in cases when people overdo it.. but with a good pill, I still fly with one the whole night.
I never took more then 2 in one night. There's no point. I understand why people overdo it - it's such an incredible feeling. A friend of mine who's never tried it asked me once what it feels like.. and I thought about it for a sec and said "..it's incomparable.. like.. like an orgasm that lasts for 6 hours" :D
As someone said above, it made me a more positive person. I am glad I tried it, it puts a smile on my face whenever I think about it. Don't mind the comedown, it's not harsh, I even enjoy it thinking of last night's party.
I just enjoy it to the fullest, inside my head. |

LOL, I remember the first time I've ever tried it, this girl asked me what it felt like. She asked me if it was better than sex. I thought about it for a moment and said, "you know what? it is ."Damn, they don't make E like they used to :mad: Oh well, you know what people say. Your first is always your best and then it goes downhill from there. |

I'm very happy that we are open about this.....I miss the early days........but hey.....I still think about them too.
I guess what I was hoping to achieve in this thread was......the whole safety issue.....
http://www.dancesafe.org
I'm glad that these places exist.........
I'm just really tired of seeing people who seem to be suffering.....when they've dosed.......I wish there was a way to keep the dirty drugs away......ce las vie? And to keep the inexperienced ones from dying.........and to keep the ones who take more and more to get back to a place that no-longer exists; from dying.
and I just want to say.....that now that I've moved away from chems.......I can tell you that the music still sounds just as good as it did.......it's just a different feeling....
the euphoria i felt at the beginning......Is now sortof still there but......I guess, a little more realistic and toned down......
what is reality? that'd be a whole new thread.
peace |
