Everyone from Chicago seems to think stuff around here has been clean -- I've had about 10 in the past 7 months and beg to differ.. my first experience was in July and was pure, smiling, fuzzy, starry-eyed bliss all night long (I took 1 pink hearts). They were the best ones I've ever taken and though others have come semi-close, I was always aware of a little speedy/jittery feeling. Not bad in small amounts, but some of them were just too much. Has me to the point where I can almost expect meth in any of my pills -- it's sad, because my boyfriend, who used to roll in Chicago about 5 years ago, constantly reminisces on the "old school rolls" that were pure most of the time.. or damn close to it. I'm scared I'll never get a roll close to, identical to, or even better than my first time with the pink hearts.
One thing I wanted to mention -- meth ain't the only thing going in these crap pills. This past weekend, I got my hands on 2 blue Superman logo pills here in Chicago. All my one friend kept saying was "Ohh shit... you're in for a ride. Those things are GOOD!"
So... I took one. Started feeling okay (indication of *some* MDMA, I believe) but it set in relatively quickly compared to past experiences (I'd say in 25-30 mins I felt a little roll coming on) My friend asked how many I bought, and I said "2... I think I'm going to do the other one in an hour.." and she was like "Dude, those are so good when you do them one right after the other... you should try it.. that's what I'm doing when I buy mine tonight." So, being all happy and giddy from the first pill... and also having an "I don't give a shit because I lost my job and my life is shit right now" attitude.. I said "Oh hell, you twisted my arm!" and popped the pill right then and there.
Bad fucking idea.
Either way I ended up hating the pills, but I've learned a valuable lesson as well -- pace yourself, and if one is doing it for you, then hold off on the second for a little longer.
To make a long short, I ran into another friend about 10 mins later and told him "Hey... these are making me feel kind of weird.." and he quickly said "What did you take?" I told him "Blue superman logo pills" and he goes "Shit." Of course my heart almost stopped and I went "WHAT?! WHAT ARE THEY! DO YOU KNOW?!" and he goes "Well, lots of people I know have had them and they're most likely laced with some sort of hallucinogen such as PCP, PMA or shrooms.. most likely PMA... they're going to make you hallucinate your ass off, get ready. But don't worry I'll be here to help you if you freak out."
I was scared. I hate hallucinating, hence why I hate pot/hallucinogens/psychoactives such as those.... I can't stand the idea of what they do to your mind and the control you would normally have over your body. It was most likely the PMA, and that fucking SUCKS -- it has KILLED people because it basically heats up your body and speeds up your heart 10 times more than ecstasy and 10 times faster.
I was hearing things that were never said, hearing songs that weren't really playing (I was at a club), seeing people and mistaking them for someone completely different, saying fucked up things, seeing TRACERS, seeing blobs coming out at me from patterns on the wall.. and worst of all was the paranoia. 8( This is why I hate pot. I thought everyone was watching me and thinking "Wow that girl is fucked up.. hahaha!" or that every other person I walked by was an undercover cop and was planning to bust me (I had an extra pill on me) or throw me out of the club because I was too fucked up. Obviously this was not the case but I was convinced at the time that it was. It ruined my fucking night.
So does this happen often? I KNOW I was tripping and what I had taken was apparently MDMA. BULLSHIT. These pills are great if you're looking for a nice trippy euphoria... but it was too much for me, especially because A.) I had never tripped before and B.) I was not expecting to trip or intending to do it... EVER.
Just a long-winded warning. I thought it was necessary for me to share since there are so many Chi-town people in here.
