Think MDMA has messed me up

Hello. I don't know what's wrong with me but my MDMA abuse has led to me feeling nothing like the person I once was. I know there are forums which are closely related to this kind if topic but I can't really find anything specific to my circumstances.
Anyway, I'm 18 and I started taking MDMA about 18 months ago and have been taking it on and off since then, sometimes taking decent breaks between rolls and other times rolling (for example) 4 weeks in concession. I've taken some stupidly high doses and done a fair bit of redosing. Last time I rolled was 3 weeks ago. I feel as though I have done some harm to my brain/mental health, the problem is I don't know what it is or what action to take! I have noticed that: I get brain fog, like I can be thinking about something then my mind will just go blank and I also find it hard to form thoughts sometimes. I even find difficulty in thinking about day to day things, like I can't develop a train of thought. In social situations I used to be quite funny and chatty but now it's like I'm boring, I struggle to keep a conversation and never have anything to say. I used to be friends with pretty much everyone in my year at school but now I find it hard to socialise. Dont know whether this is just a bit of post MDMA depression or if it could be something more serious like a mental illness, whatever it is it's always on my mind, always wondering what's wrong with me and thinking I've inflicted brain damage to myself or something. Anyone able to tell me what this is and if so what the best action to take would be!? Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Holy crap, this is literally the same as me.
Anyways, best course of action is to abstain from MDMA for a decent amount of time 6 month-a year, then if you want to use MDMA save it for special occasions and be sensible with dosing.
in the mean time, healthy eating, exercise and time are whats needed to recover from this :) You'll be feeling better in no time at all :)
 
I feel like this also :)
I totally agree with danster57. Recovery time and save it to the special occasions.
 
Thanks a lot for the advice guys? Good to know that I'm not the only one that feels like this!? I'm at the gym or Muay Thai at least five times a week I also try to eat healthy, just need to abstain from MDMA now! You guys feeling back to normal now or are you still on the road to recovery?
 
Looks you are on good track, what you do, that is abstinence and exercise. If you have enough comfort, you can enhance the process by learning or doing something NEW and challenging, but gratifying. Like change where you live or get a baby, or some new sport / girlfriend.
 
Well I've wanted to do motocross since I was a kid and now that I've got some money together I'm getting into it, hopefully it will help me with my recovery! Thanks modelogy, I appreciate the help! :)
 
You'll be right man! Did the same thing to myself earlier in the year, time is the real healer, I never thought I'd feel close to okay again
 
I agree with everyone here. Your strongest ally would be to keep a positive mindset.

You're getting through the psychological dependency from it. There will definitely be symptoms related to serotonin depletion and that seems to be what you are experiencing. Staying healthy, reducing stress and leading a productive life will all help you get over this quickly.
 
Hello all, it's been a while since I've posted here but I just wanted to ask for some advice. I have abstained from mdma for 2 months now, I have been exercising, taking multivitamins and fish oil, and I have also been trying to eat healthy. I don't feel much better if I'm honest, depression is still present and also anxiety, some days worse than others, I was just wondering if I should try going down the SSRI route or just keep going how I am going?
 
It usually clears itself up, main thing is anxiety or even paranoia. Tried a little social drinking?
 
Can't sleep because of anxiety at the moment, so annoying, keep worrying that I'm developing schizophrenia but I think it's the just anxiety! I do social drink from time to time, it does help but I still don't feel like my old self when I drink, I have no confidence or any self esteem now I feel as if I'm the last person that people will want to talk to, I don't even feel comfortable with the people that I used to be really close with
 
That's a typical effect from over-doing mdma, it will fix itself if you ignore it & force yourself into social situations, while avoiding mdma or other stimulants. Then try to keep your mdma use at lower doses & less than once a month. It's just a bit of anxiety, you haven't done any real permanent damage or you wouldn't be typing like that. If you can type messages you can talk to people.
 
Alright thanks for the advice man! I do put myself into social situations it's just hard when I feel this way! will just need to persevere. Dont think I will ever take a drug again
 
Hey man! I've been through exactly what you are dealing with now! Unfortunately I've managed to put myself back there by being abit silly on the weekend. It clears up dude, just give it time. Do you experience any dp/dr or just a pointless feeling?
 
Hopefully you get better again it's not a nice place to be! Its been 2 months and I feel worse than ever, anxiety is just about taking over! No real dp but I do feel quite detached at times, this worry about schizophrenia is the main thing
