So, this is my first post in Bluelight %)
This is a fresh first time experience with xtc.
First I'll write the story, and at the end my conclusions..
I'm still in my teens, and in the summer I went to a festival with a lots of my friends for two days, and that was the first time I encountered xtc. I knew the dealer, many of us knew him, he even partied with us for a while, so I trusted him. He told me that it was a weak "beginner" pill, (pink facebook). It was the first time for many of us, and I was the first to take it. I took it via mouth, others snorted it. After a while (say 20 minutes) I started to talk a lot, and after 45 mins it kicked in. I was talking to everyone, walking from people to people, I couldn't stand in one place and it was great. However, it was cheap, converted to euros I'd say 5 €, so I took another one. Then we went to a big concert tent, and the music felt really intense, however it was too crowded to dance. At this time I felt great euphoria, and I just wanted more, so I took a third one. Needless to say after 1 hour I was dancing like never before in my life. We found a DnB tent, where I think half the people were on some kind of drugs, and we started dancing. I spent the rest of the night dancing in the pit, people were really crazy like we stood in a circle with 40 people and all rushed into the middle at the same time, it was awesome. Hours passed, and I was still very upbeat, maybe because I took too much. Then for some moments I thought that I'm an idiot for taking too much, because I felt like I couldn't control myself. I had my arms constantly lifted and I had to move some of my limbs or I felt unconfortable. The others weren't so upbeat. And around 5 or 6 AM I still felt like dancing and stuff, but the others wanted to go home. This time i fell into the abyss you'd call comedown of ecstasy. I slept at the flat of my friend, where we I tried to sleep, bu I couldn't, (this was 8 or 9 hours later after the last dosage, and I danced like 5 hours) so we smoked a joint, and that sent me dreaming on the sofa. But when I woke up I didn't feel sad at all, instead I was happy rejoicing in last nights experiences. The next night I took the same dosage as last night, and it was still pretty intense, but I didn't have that "surprise" as last night. The morning was hard again, (I slept at another friend's flat), this time we didn't smoke pot, and we were up 'til 10 or 11 AM, only then we could get some sleep. The day next I was sad because the festival was great and has ended, but I didn't feel any depression at all.
My conclusion.
It's strange that everywhere I hear that the after effects cause depression, but for me actually days after the event I was still in a happy mood, and whenever I listened to upbeat music, I had a small sort of "rush of good memories", or don't know what you'd call it, but I was happy. Going to sleep was hard, but I had my friends there who kept me company so it wasn't really depressing. After the sleep I felt perfectly good. I felt that my stomach was empty, but I had no appetite. Still I forced some food down and after it was OK.
Now thinking back maybe this post doesn't belong to this thread, but what I tried to say is:
Maybe people feel like losing magic at the 3rd or 4th use because they don't get surprised by this new feeling of euphoria?
