A bad, long-lasting negative reaction to MDMA? If that's really the case I'm gonna have to wonder if maybe it's more of an issue with you rather than the substance then? And in no way mean anything bad by that
We here this MANTRA week in and week out. Such an easy thing to say if you have never suffered one of these things yourself.
Couldnt possibley be MDMA could it? A neurotoxic drug that has been shown to emit all the symptoms that the OP is suffering from. Why hasnt the drug caused the symptoms I ask you?
What are you trying to achieve by suggesting this to the OP? Sorry mate but its not the drug to blame its you. Oh yeah and I didnt mean anything bad by it..
If you had no problems before this last MDMA use, and have had no problems since, then you have no problems. If you had no problems beforehand, and do have since with no real change inbetweentimes, then the problem is with you. Neither of these possibilities includes MDMA being a problem though so am confused
Your logic here is almost child like. Whats your point MDMA is not neurotoxic unless you get instant problems from it? Safe for all and if you get problems its not the drug its you? Unreal - I really cant see where your going with this in regards to Harm Reduction Advice.
It sounds more to me that it is something in your life that lacks. Set/setting and all that. If one or t'other ain't right then neither is right and nor will you be until you fix that. Drugs are never the problem unless they are the problem. In your case it definitely ain't a drug problem though.
Wow you really are laying the boot in here. Are you getting some kind of kick from this type of abuse in a support thread? I would say looking at all the persicution you are blurting out there is DEFINITELY something lacking in your life.
The guy had a perfectly functional life, went out took some drugs and is now in a very bad state. What part of that do you not understand?
It is not - and can never be - a drug's fault. A drug is a chemical. It did not put itself in your body.
Just because the drug did not put itself in his body it does not mean it was not to blame for the problems described. Your pattern of logic and compassion for someone suffering really defies beleif.
You should really ask yourself the question what am I actually achieving here by having a go at someone who is suffering in this way? From where im looking relatively little.
Why dont you head to the lounge and launch an attack on someone there who can actually defend themself or why not go to pill reports and tell everyone how you were rollin balz over the weekend cause nothing you have said here is of any help or any joy to anyone.
Is there a doctor who I could possibly try to contact who had a specialty in MDMA? Or any specialist in general?
A lot of what is being suggested here (abuse and nastyness aside) is along the lines of its all in your head you will get over it. Quite honestly I dont think it is as simple as that. I do beleive MDMA or similiar Serotonin Releasers and Enzyme Inhibitors can reak havoc on the brain and cause very high levels of intoxication. Particularly when you mix coctails of MDMA+other drug or take high doses of MDMA.
From the reading I conduct it would appear that a lot of the stress experienced post MDMA use is caused by damage to the serotonin Axons. The good news about this is much of what I read also confirms that this damage can be repaired by Neuronal Regeneration where by the Axons resprout and reform. During this reform process unfortunately the user has to go through a lot of pain and suffering before the serotonin transmission returns and you feel normal again.
Tackling the anxiety is a good thing because it causes you to relax more and whilst you are more relaxed better repair work can be achieved. By reducing anxiety it will also help you sleep better once again promoting more repair. Exercise is good where by it promotes good blood circulation and a healthy amount of oxygen into the body. Diet is also key in conjunction with a good suppliment regime.
Having an understanding of your problems is good but over analysing is not good. Over analysing puts you into a state of stress whilst you are stressed your body will not heal.
Facing up to anxiety is also good. Fighting the desire to not leave the house by actually leaving the house is good because it retrains the mind to realise there are no dangers. Ignoring the DP/DR is also good because it trains the mind to actually forget the DP/DR even exists.
With an MDMA recovery it seems to be a combined effort of things to do that step by step lead to your recovery. Unfortunately there is no equipment in the world that will figure out the exact details of which axons or cells you have damaged or which area of the brain is lacking in serotonin. Or a pill that once you are diagnosed will fix all these intricate problems. Because neither test nor cure actually exists then the role of a doctor in diagnostic and execution of these problems is kind of surplus to requirements.
There really is nothing more a doctor can do for you despite the pain you are feeling.
I highly advise you sit down and read some books about overcoming anxiety they will all say the same thing about learning to accept and move forward.
I also advise you try a little harder to do more exercise and fitness. I know its hard trust me I know its almost impossible but just try the best you possibley can. Do you really want to feel like this for years to come? Clearly not each time you exercise see it as one step to the recovery you so badly desire.
Look at the message that comes from those who have been through it and recovered they all say the same thing. My recovery was greatly sped up by the fact I ignored my anxiety and problems and just moved forward with my life despite how I felt. My DP/DR faded more quickly as I started to ignore it.
I truly know how you feel PMZ, its a bitch but learning to accept and moving forward is key.
