Hi, I need some advice on ecstasy!
So, before I went to college (I’m a freshman now, 2nd semester) I thought I’d never do drugs. I drank before (obviously haha) but I was always pretty much against drugs. I wanted to try weed (at least once) because I think you should try something before judging it (I don’t mean really fucked up stuff) but I was always with people that I didn’t feel comfortable doing it with and the friends that I would’ve felt comfortable with never wanted to do it.
But now that I met new people in college I’m faced with this completely different situation: my best friend here rooms with a girl that’s a drug dealer (she’s a really sweet girl though) and even though she never smoked or did drugs before (apart from drinking, just like me), she got intrigued by the fact that it’d be so easy to get drugs now. Here in college it’d be extremely easy to get weed or smoke it with others but we both don’t really want to smoke it, we’d rather eat potbrownies or cookies. But that’s off-topic. A few weeks ago, she told me that she’d always been intrigued to try ecstasy, just once, and asked me if I ever thought about it.
I never did. And I told her that. We laughed it off, but since then it was just so intriguing to think about how it would feel to take it and we asked ourselves if we should actually try it once. We don’t want to take it at a party and we want to do it after the semester is over, but we’re unsure with how many people and with whom to do it. We don’t really want anyone to know about it, so we thought about taking it with the drug dealer girl or my roommate possibly… what would you guys think would be best? Should there be someone that’s sober or ‘just’ drunk to look after us?
Also, I wanted to ask what it does to you. I read a lot of things about emotional warmth, heightened appreciation for music and touch etc. but I want to know if you can still decide what to do or say (just like when you’re drunk but not TOO drunk). Let’s say you’re with a person that you have a crush on but you don’t want them to know, would you still be able to control what you’re doing and saying? Or would you just say whatever’s on your mind (which would probably not be to good)?
I appreciate any help!
!st it’s good you’re worried and asking question, many don’t and suffer potential consequences. MDMA is an incredible compound and there is not a single compound similar to it that I know of, certainly not that I’ve tried. The euphoria and the warmth and closeness you feel is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.
Here is a list of the many responses people had to the drug including adverse effects:

I’ll try find some trip reports for you to look at as well.
When you initially take it you may think something is not right within 30-45 minutes but that is perfectly normal, if it persister for more than 90-120 mins you should seek proper advice. You should also ideally do it in a nice cosy comfortable setting with good friends at least ther 1st time until you know what you’re dealing with. Another important factor is hydration. Everyone thinks you just dehydrate on MDMA which is only the case if you dance your arse off for the night and don’t drink but people have died from making the mistake that feeling unwell meant they needed water and basically drowned themselves trying to get more fluid into them. If you’re just sat chillin then you need FAR less water than if you’re raving.
There will hopefully be others that will add to this but any questions you have at all make sure you ask cos we’d rather you were safe 🙂
I’ll be speaking from my personal experiences, and I know that “everyone’s is different” but honestly nearly everyone I have known to have tried it has told me nearly the same things.
Emotional warmth, completely true. I often feel very “loved up”, like everything is amazing and everything will be OK, everyone turns into your best friend. Music becomes like a pathway to another universe, by far one of my favourite things about the drug is listening to my favourite music whilst on it. Touch, somewhat true. You’ll notice that everything sort of becomes really, really nice to touch and everything feels just great.
You can control yourself, to a point. If you turn out and do 5 pills on your first time, you’re most likely not going to know how to control how you act. Even I struggle sometimes, and I’m not what you’d call a new person to the drug. Your biggest giveaway will be the jaw and face muscle relaxation. Your perception of things will change, however. You’re likely to be making bold and confident movements (never violent), physically and through speech. Your scenario with talking to your crush would be fine if you can control it. Honestly, it’s relatively easy, but I prefer to let all of my feelings and thoughts be heard when on it. There is no forced speech however, it’s not as if you’re forced to say anything or let anything out when you’re on it, you can just bottle it all up inside you.
If you’re looking for advice on how much to do, pick up either 2 medium range ecstasy pills or 1 high quality pill (per person), if you can get hold of them, if your preference is tablets. If you’re buying powder / crystal (MDMA), half a gram should set you up fine for first time use, if you’re feeling adventurous try a gram. My first time I took a half gram and a pill, and I was reasonably fucked up. If you do buy crystal however, I advise you to “bomb” it, which is basically wrapping up an amount of MDMA (I like to weigh it in at 0.3g) in a rolling paper and swallowing it. Effects last longer than sniffing and are more intense. Sort of like doing a “purer” ecstasy tablet.
Advice for when on it,
A) Don’t drink too much. It’s a misconception you should down a load of water, but as said above you can actually drown your insides from drinking too much. The common rule is around about a pint of water an hour, perhaps less.
B) You won’t actually feel it for about 25 – 45 minutes. Give it time, don’t risk getting yourself in too deep with your first time. Take your time, there’s no rush.
I don’t know where you are, but where I’m located at in the South East of England, prices for good pills are around £10 a pop and good MDMA comes in at about £30-40 per gram. Roughly speaking that’s about $10-15 a pill and about $40-50 a gram (this comes straight from a currency converter, I don’t know the supply and demand factors in your area, could differ greatly).
Hope this helped.
Ehh a couple things…
I had trouble figuring out who you’re trying to take it with(is it the dealer girl or another girl?), E doesn’t require a trip sitter so keep that in mind. My best MDMA and related compounds experiences took place generally at concerts with lots of other people equally as lit… but that doesn’t seem to be your thing, and more power to you. I’d suggest either doing it with nature or staying in and listening to tunes or both if you can find a sober driver to transport you. idk
test it with a reagent kit to make sure it is MDMA otherwise all the forethought about when and where and even yes or no is pointless. Don’t wanna be doing some shit E.
only red flag is your last paragraph, I got a big chuckle out of how much of a neophyte you sound like. your line of thinking is “is this drug going to control me?” when it should be “can i control this drug?”… the answer to either question is YES but you’ll have a much better time if you’re asking yourself the latter question.
All and all I vote no at this point in time, smoke some more ganja(or edibles if you must) and get back to us when you have more of an intuitive understanding of the psychedelic experience. Although the spring semester gets out in May and if thats the earliest you are trying to roll then smoke some green in between now and then so that you are a little more versed in the ways of psychedelics… otherwise i suspect you’ll experience a wonderful time while high but will have trouble integrating the experience and re-entering your old psyche.
Only drug I would love to give to everyone least once in there life’s.
GO FOR IT!! when I first took it I was worried to I had been filled with horror story’s and all this bullshit propaganda, I’l never forget my girlfriend at the time saying your starting to feel it… I said how can you tell? her reply was you have a huge smile on your face the rest is history

Kinda disagree with that. Sure, if you’re used to do Extacy and know how you react to it, sure,it’s not necessery,
but when it’s someones first time doing it(nomatter what kind of drug) they never really know exactly how they are going to react, so it’s better to be safe than sorry when it’s the first time doing it.
Most likely everything will go just fine, and it will be amazing, but just incase you freak out, collapse, get dehydrated, or od on water for that sake(yeah that’s possible) you should have a ‘babysitter’ as we call it here, with you on your first trip.
And about if your able to control what you say, so yeah you can controll what you do and say, BUT, when you’re on mdma, everything is just so amazing and beautiful and everything just feels so good and so right,
so if you are with someone you have a crush on, you may just get so strong feelings(and horny:wink:)that you may say something you wouldn’t normaly say, og be more touchy than you normaly are.
Just saying.
swaghetti (the original poster) seems to be one of those one post wonders, i get all of what you’re saying but i don’t think he’ll be back to read it.
welp . if he ever does come back and read …. I do hope he buys a reagent test for the “E” especially since he has no idea what to expect ..
There are some pretty nasty chems out their getting slopped into pressed pills as Im sure we all know …
dancesafe is hardly safe anymore
MDMA moonrock is being duplicated by some chem unknown to myself and my kits as well ….
damn drug laws … damn greedy dealers …
Well, everyone else has covered the safety so I’ll just say go for it; you’re unlikely to regret it.
Unless you die.

Ah, but if they’re dead they would no longer have any emotional consciousness, therefore they would be unable to regret it. If they nearly died but survived they might regret it ;p
I won’t push on even though the rush started to take over lol.
I was thinking about trying it as well but i honestly don’t know where to buy it. can anybody help me with this? i have smoked weed and i drank but ive been wanting something a little extra to give me an extra push in life and one of my friends that moved too far away now tried it and said it was wonderful. he felt constantly happy and just loved the feeling of everything. So back to the topic i was asking. Can somebody help me buy it?
