After Effects (Anxiety, Dizziness) of the drug Molly (MDMA, Ecstasy)

I have finally found help talking to my doctor at week 5 and starting an antidepressant.  I know it sounds kind of scary, but this drug really helps.  It takes about 2 weeks before you see improvement, but the earlier you start the better. Go see a doctor! Seriously! You will get better.  It is a gradual process, but trust me you can get back to yourself!

1. Talk to your doctor, ask them about the potential of getting prescribed an antidepressant (which can be prescribed for anxiety too)

2. Talk to a counselor.

3. Take a break. Play outside.  

4. Don't look anything up about the symptoms you are feeling on the internet!!!!

5. Continue to work out and eat healthy.

6. Accept the way that you feel and continue to do the things you need to do. 

7. Accept that the healing process will take time, but you will eventually get better.

8. Stop connecting your symptoms to your use of MDMA.  Stop feeling guilty.

If anybody need help with this problem just ask been through it 2 times

Hey,

This is my second time experiencing this as well... although not to the same degree as the first time it occured.

What would you recommend is the best way to speed up the healing process? Any key supplements I should take? I'm currently taking Omega 3 fish oil & Vitamin C.

I'm exactly the same.. but it has been just 5 days since. Could you find any treatment after all?

This is the second time I've had it. It feels like vertigo. I know it will get better but it still is awful at the time. Ride it out and try and stay positive. Try and stay around friends that will cheer you up.

I want to do exercise because I know it will help but feel too dizzy to do it. Does anyone know what are the best vitamins to take while feeling like this?

This is my first time experiencing anxiety after consuming Molly. Unlike other people, I have not been experiencing dizziness or nausea. I only felt like that the very next day. It's been a week with anxiety. I took the drug on July 18th and on July 21st I had a panic attack and went to the hospital. They gave me some medication and I felt better. It's been a week and I still feel anxiety. I was feeling much better yesterday and I also saw the doctor yesterday and he prescribed 2 new medicines, but I don't feel like they are helping. I felt worse after I took these new medications. Currently trying to see my doctor to let him know how I feel. I know I will feel better I just been thinking about it way too much. Its been hard accepting the fact that this will be a process. I'm also on my period so its making it more intense for me. So my question is, you said you've been through it twice, which means you eventually went back to normal right?

Hey, so how are you doing? I feel the same symptoms. My heart rate will go up sometimes and I feel anxiety. I too feel not like myself/normal. It has been a little over a week since I consumed Molly.

im going on 8 month with this sh*t, better then when i first started but its for sure from that piece of sh*t drug. used to get screwed up for a week straight and be fine. now one night drinking i cant leave my house the next day. just my 2 cents

You'll be ok I've had anxiety and depression (ptsd) before and I was drug free. I guess I had it due to a traumatic car accident I was in about 3 years ago . This past weekend I went to Vegas took Molly and it brought back those same symptoms right after the "calm down" ( blurred vision , dizziness , balance , focus , etc..) . I believe it's not the MDMA anymore just the anxiety and depression don't let the panic attacks and these thoughts get the best of you it's all mental your body is healthy!! This time I'm one week in and I do feel better , but I'm not myself. I guess it will take some time weeks, months , years?? Idk but Ima keep a positive attitude and stay sober . I'm athletic I was off the gym for a year and just decided to sign up today , I hope that helps.
READING THESE POSTS REALLY HELPS. I'll keep you guys updated and let you know what helped me recover . Have faith I believe in God unfortunately I made a mistake and now I have to deal with it.
Keep me updated..

Hey all, I took about a total of 3.5 pills (around 700mg MDMA) over the weekend. I felt completely fine the following Monday until nighttime when i start to have the symptoms many are describing. Tuesday I woke up very dizzy and i felt as if my eyes had trouble focusing and i would feel dizzy when moving them from side to side. It is not wednesday and i feel completely fine, but here are the supplements i took aong with a good nights of rest and plenty of water tuesday night. 425 mg Magnesium (elemental from Magnesium malate), 100 mg 5-HTP, 50 mg Zinc Picolinate, and 2 fish oil capsules. I am not sure if this is what helped me fix, as i am sure a few more nights of rest would have fixed me up, but Magnesium play an important role in serotonin production, and as most Americans are magnesium deficient, i feel that it is important to get a good magnesium supplement. Make sure the Magnesium supplement you buy is a bioavailable form (i.e. avoid magnesium oxide as it is only 4% bioavailable). Zinc, folate, and vitamine b-6 are also important co-factors in serotonin production so look into those too.

.7 grams for the first time is hella lot man!! You shoulda done like .2 and go from there

There is no cure for what we have all done to ourselves. Time heals you some, but the best thing is to not make the same mistakes. I'm actually going through it as I type this to you all. If you really want to know what's going on with your bodies google what ecstacy does to your brain and you'll get your answers. Most of the head and chest discomfort is linked to the brain damage that you've caused and the change in hormone levels. Even nausea begins in the brain. Time, eating healthy, exercise, and happy thoughts are your best bets moving forward. As this is my 3rd or so time dealing with these issues, I am not quite the pro, but know that it takes 4-6 weeks to feel about 85% better, but never get back to 100% I have great days and days where my body treats me badly. In the end, I take it one day at a time and just pray for the best. Good luck all, I know I need it!

I don't think I've ever gone back to normal, but I have also been in your shoes a few times. The worst of it usually passes in the first 4-6 weeks. Sometimes I've felt better within a week. When I mix alcohol with Molly is when I have the issues you described. There is no cure for what we have all done to ourselves.

I've had it before and I think I've got it again, doctors in the UK are used to seeing this now and many of my friends have had it - it's called Labirynthitis - it's an inner ear infection which affects your balance. You can get medication to clear it up.

well, i felt like this for a week or so, i was concerned if i stay dizzy all the time but i just smoked weed without any other stuff and the next day i felt like i was new baked... idk if this would help for any of u
