If you've tried ecstasy and lived to tell tale

Anaphylaxis fears Tony

Ecstasy the media and government would have you believe is sure to cause your death. Actually 1 in a million is your actuall gamble on death by ecstasy. Alcohol is proven much more deadly. Dont even get me started on smoking. So tried ex and still here? Ok so what did you think of it really? Anyone wants to reply about the dangers of it please do. I really struggle to believe some myths that are talked about. Mad stories of experiences will be interesting cos ive herd some funny ones. See you in the mental ward which is the future!

I decided to try ecstasy a few months ago just to see what it was like and then not do it anymore. But, it is so amazingly fun, and just overall amazing, i couldnt help but want to do it more. I did it to much and quit for 2 months now, because i dont want to get bad into it. I have a friend, who was addicted to ecstasy in the summer. She dropped down to 90 pounds, her personality changed completely, not in a bad way though. She did it so much that she got meth burns on her hands. She didn't die though. Everyone says you can die from one pill but I think thats definately some myth that scares people from doing it. The only reason you "could" die from a pill is if you dont drink enough water while on it. If you do ecstasy, make sure to sip on water regularly but don't drink too much at a time because that can lead to problems too. Just sip when your mouth is pasty!

i'm 16 and i've done ecstasy 3 times.

the reason people get addicted to it is because your brain gives some type of liquid which i cannot remember the name of and ecstasy puts ALOT of that same liquid [ or things that act the same way it does ] and well naturally your brain stops producing the liquid because you have an excess of it [which is why ecstasy makes you happy.] but when the pill wears off [which is usually like 6 - 8 hours after you take it] , since your brain isnt producing that liquid anymore you get very depressed and stuff and that is what users call "downers" it usually takes your brain a couple of days to start producing it at a normal rate again.
but usually people jsut take another pill to get that happy feeling again and that's how it all begins.

i hope i helped a bit.

the stuff is super addictive. i seem to always want some but i resist . i havent done it in months. Smile

I'm 16 as well.
I tried ecstasy for the first time last night. I didn't feel anything for about 45 minutes, then out of nowhere it hit. The first 30 minutes or so were horrible. I felt really scared and paranoid, I felt like I was going to die. Then I took a shower and calmed down, and laid in my bed and enjoyed the roll. And for the above response, the "liquid" is called serotonin. It is the brain chemical that regulates hunger, and makes you feel happy. Ecstasy releases all of the serotonin in your brain at once, making you feel that happy sensation. I highly recommend NOT taking this pill. It feels good yes, but it is also scary, and in my opinion deadly. I have done a lot of reading on it, and your body can easily be overwhelmed (even by one pill) and can shut down. While on E, your body is overstimulated, and your heart is beating really fast, and your brain is being overpowered by the serotonin release. This can easily lead to a deadly stroke. Also, I am not positive about this, but my friend told me that you have a much higher risk of dying if you fall asleep on X. Just make sure to stay awake. Drinking not enough water causes dehydration, and drinking too much water isn't good either. You will need a max of 2 full water bottles. Don't drink too much more than that. You will also need either some gum or a pacifier because while rolling you will tend to chew and grind, and if you have nothing to chew on, you will end up chewing on your tongue/cheek and grinding your teeth. It is not a physically addicting drug, but the feeling you get is definitely addicting, so it is better to stay away from it in general. Last night was definitely my first and last time taking it. Hopefully this helps those of you who are interested in taking it, but aren't sure. (I took ONE orange lady)

Also, I HIGHLY reccomend buying these pills call 5-HTP. You can find them at your loacl CVS (save-on) on drug store. It is a pill that regulates the serotonin produced, so if you must take ecstasy, take one pill a day about 3 days before you decide to roll. Then, keep taking them (ONLY ONE A DAY while eating a meal) for about a week afterwards. This should help your serotonin levels get back to normal quicker, and cause less brain damage.

Hope this helped. =]

The orange ladies are probably meth bombs or some time of amphetamines.

I first tried ecstasy in January of this year (new years, actually). the first ones i had were white naked ladies/g spots which are almost purely made of MDMA. I didnt have a bad come down, but i did end up staying up for 2 days. I ended up rolling almost every weekend after that. I was constantly looking for that experience i had the first time. But the fact of the matter is: all ecstasy pills are different. There is no way of knowing what is in any pill these days because you have people that just want to make money and will mix anything and press them into a pill for cash.

I've been clean for maybe 3 months now and i feel a lot better. Doing ecstasy every weekend does take a toll on your body-- physically and emotionally. I did notice i was becoming someone else.

Personally, i feel that cigarettes are worse that ex, drinking is worse, etc etc. Maybe that's a biased opinion, but there are worse things out there. Anything can be addictive (caffeine, chocolate, speeding, working out; ANYTHING). I think that anyone that chooses to do a stimulate or any narcotic has to really assess themselves as a person. If you have and addictive personality... DUH dont do it. My boyfriend tried coke onces and hated it, and that was his first and last time. Some people just arent that strong.

I've done ecstasy... I couldn't even tell you how many times. I love it, it's amazing. But I will never do it again after the last time I did. I took 4 and parachutted (which means it is crushed up, wrapped in a little piece of toilet paper and swallowed) and I rolled harder than I ever had. Then I decided to take shots of vodka at about 5 in the morning. Drinking alcohol feels absolutely amazing when you're on X, but DON'T do it. I'm always really careful with X so I don't know what came over me... I always keep myself hydrated and stay in control and I knew damn well not to mix alcohol and ecstasy. The next day I was so dehydrated that I fainted and an ambulance had to be called. They knew exactly what was wrong with me, but I didn't want to go to the hospital. I've never had that bad of a comedown at all, but this time it was TERRIBLE. I was throwing up non-stop, so nauseous, and my brain hurt. Literally, I woke up with my brain hurting. So I will probably never do ecstasy again, even though I crave it all the time whenever I hear techno and trance music. The only side-effect that has stayed with me is that it has reaaaally destroyed my short-term memory. It's terrible, and I know it's because of the X. But other than all that, I love ecstasy. Try it Very Happy

im 16 i couldnt say how many times iv tried it but only ever 2 different types of E the last time i took it was 4days ago i tryed a new type and have only just fully come down off it and would say its been the worst 4 days off my life possibly the worst pain iv had constantly feeling like your going 2 be sick i was taken a plastic bag where ever i went, which was only as far as the toilet when i stood up i was feeling dizzy and heart would start racing and felt like i was going 2 collapse. i once saw this 14 year old girl on ecstasy, she must of only took 4 and she was rolling around on the grass banging her face against the ground (not a nice thing 2 see). but my 1st experience was the best and have never had 1 like it since, hallucinating, my boyfriend n i were kissing on his bed and i thought we were in the middle of the town i was trying 2 hide under the covers lol but i would not recommend it if u are not going 2 be around some1 that knows what 2 do with u if something goes wrong n be careful bcoz once u take 1 u just want more Smile

happy pilling Smile

I've done a large amount of ecstasy in my life, I'd say well over 50 times, call it a by product of a long AV career in the rave/club scene. What people fail to realize is that ecstasy is just a name, one that could serve you up 1 of several drugs, although they are analogues the differences are often substantial. Your likely candidates are MDA/MDMA/MDEA/MBDB/BDB

MDMA (methylenedioxy-methyl-amphetamine) - true "ecstasy" if you will, a speedy standard what you'd expect from ecstasy, this is the one that makes people say "oh this is laced with speed, no, sure it has a methylamphetamine group, but it's not the same, its just MDMA,

MDA (methylenedioxyamphetamine)- like MDMA, except quite a bit more hallucinogenic. You see this occasionally.

MDEA (methylenedioxy-ethyl-amphetamine) - Heroin laced ecstasy they say? no, that's MDEA, ecstasy's stoner cousin. not speedy at all, just kinda makes you wanna just sit there and enjoy whatever you're enjoying.

MBDB (methylenedioxy-ethyl-methylphenethylamine,)- it's like MDEA, except much weaker, (does NOT mean take more if you come across it, please, don't kill yourself) also much more sedative than the others, akin to MDEA's make you just want to sit there.

BDB (methylenedioxy-ethyl-phenethylamine) - Another (albeit not watered down) analogue of ecstasy, this one is pretty much like MDA, slow, happy, same ol same ol...

Are they fun? sure. should you do it? no... especially with the amount of crap being sold as ecstasy ( often you'll find two types of pills in one night, taking both...VERY VERY dangerous if you run across any of the analogues and a DXM, DXM stops you from sweating, Ecstasy makes you hot. Hyperthermia comes next, not fun to end up in the hospital with a 110F drug induced 'fever'..)

Be careful, make sure you get anything you're gonna stick in your body, TESTED... I worked for years with dancesafe doing testing on pills in the northern indiana/michigan/chicago area...seen lots of dangerous stuff being sold. The government isn't too far off with their "it can kill you" line, except its not usually the ecstasy, but some bad stuff you THINK is ecstasy, there are some downsides to its use, depression after the fact, this can last a few days, couple weeks, month, varies person to person, I never really experienced myself.

Just be careful, drink plenty of water, and keep it safe. Can't enjoy what you do if you're dead.

Ecstasy can be bad or become really addicting if abused! theres a difference between using and abusing a drug! You can become depressed from it but i feel this only happens when takin while depressed or to cover problems up. ive never become depressed from it actually the last time i took it i slep the whole next day because i was up until 7 in the morning but the day after that i was hyper and felt really good about life and everything actually upped my mood and its been a week and a half and i still feel fantastic! Just test your pills and be safe dont be stupid and one pill wont kill you.
