Wow are you guys some expert scientists!
There is not a single evidence that MDMA causes any physical damage, let alone damage from a few uses or even a single use. Magicalkalkat is a fear monger. I am wondering, do any of you get your news and information from Infowars.com by any chance?
Also as far as the dark side forum is concerned. There's people that can't ween off of alcohol their entire life. That's nothing new. You can be addicted and dependant to anything in life, not just SSRIs. Just so you know I decided to go the SSRI route when a user here mentioned how he treated his symtoms which were almost identical to mine after 3 months of SSRI use. He is SSRI free now.
Most people that have recovered or nearly fully recovered always say that part of their recovery was staying off of bluelight...hmm...I wonder why.

Okay, you got us - we are all delusional hypochondriacs.. ShytK is right about everything, everyone else is wrong. Except:
1) There are AS MANY (or probably MORE studies) which show that MDMA is Neurotoxic as there are studies showing the contrary. The ones which show that there is no damage are typically conducted in laboratory settings with low doses of pure pharma-grade MDMA. For every one study you link showing how safe MDMA is, I'll show you show you several which suggest the opposite to be true.
2) MDMA is DEFINITELY neurotoxic when mixed with some other drugs, which is responsible for a lot of the problems seen on this board. Are these people imagining their problems too?
3) Why are there so many fucked up people on the Ecstasy Discussion board, not the others? Does this show anything? (answer:... yes, it does!)
4) How do you explain physical symptoms such as HPPD, deafening tinnitus, Bruxism (Symptoms that somehow began before I even had a bluelight account)
5) Why does a harm reduction board exist for MDMA? (bonus question: why are you a member of this board? If you truly believe MDMA is harmless, you're clearly just gonna spend a whole lot of time on bluelight arguing. What is the point? Maybe that is the point....)
This problem is partly psychological for everyone, fully psychological for some (like you), therefore staying off bluelight is useful for almost everyone as it addresses this one aspect of the problem. I have taken a few extended bluelight breaks, trying to live my life etc, and guess what? I did not magically recover! So i decided to come back and help others who are struggling with similar issues.
I think you should ask yourself why you dislike negative opinions about MDMA, even though you are taking medication to address the problems it has caused you. There are obviously reasons, and the reasons are probably obvious.
I have no qualms with your decision to take SSRIs. If you think they work, and it does appear to work well for you, then I'm happy you have found a solution. Just don't go around a
harm reduction board arguing about how ecstasy is
harmless to people whose lives have
been harmed by it. Even if you are right, what is the god damn point? Your won't win.
Amazing that these things have to be pointed out... Lol
