It's been a really shitty couple of months....Today unable to go to class and feeling worse than usual, I googled ecstasy recovery stories and read all the posts on this site. Now I'm filled with hope that one day I can return to the person I was.
I started doing molly as a freshman in college (2 years ago) since then I've done it nearly every month in doses up to a gram (yes I know stupid). It started out great, I never had a comedown and I thought I had discovered the perfect drug. Then a couple months ago I got one bad batch and I started getting depressed and terrible panic attacks. I was so messed up I had to transfer out of school and now I'm living with my parents.
I stopped for a while and then felt better and I stupidly decided to take it again thinking it would be fine. Well the next couple weeks were hell. Depression, panic attacks, sensitivity to noises were just a few of the symptoms. I feel a little better since then but still a shell of the person I once was.
3 years ago I got a perfect score on my SAT verbal and now I'm sitting here struggling to type a coherent thought.
But now reading these threads I see the human brain has a remarkable ability to recover from damage. Tomorrow I'm beginning a new lifestyle without any drugs or alchohol. I'm making these changes to my life :
-mindfulness meditation, excercise, and yoga.
-going on the paleo diet
-adding a good multi vitamin + fish oil + magnesium.
I also have some 5 htp that I've been using I'm not sure how much it's helping.
Does anyone have any experience using nootropics for recovery? I'm considering adding a small amount of piracetam + choline.
If anyone has any advice or anything to say I'd greatly appreciate it. I just felt so damn alone dealing with this by myself all the time. At least on here I can relate with some people
