What you are describing sounds like scalp dysesthesias/parasthesias.
I would say that the patient's symptoms are similar to what I'm going through right now.
You've only been suffering for a few months, but you could consider trying an antidepressant if it continues to bother you months down the road.
I'm not really depressed or have anxiety so antidepressants would be something I would take maybe a year or two down the road if this isn't resolved naturally. Also, I have taken anti-depressants in the past and I hated the way they made me feel. It made me feel numb to the world (amongst other side effects) and I never want to feel like that again. Anti-depressants are a last resort for me. Also, I realize every anti-depressant reacts differently so I would try something other than Zoloft and Prozac (my 2 past medications) in hope that I would react better.
What happened was I was dealing with this scalp paresthesia after I took MDMA three months ago. It mostly happened at night and wasn't constant. As time went on - at about the two month mark it was almost completely gone and I felt a lot like myself. I really felt like I was turning the corner. Then a few days later I drank a cup of caffeine. In hindsight, it was a terrible decision. The head paresthesia came back a lot worse. The pains and burning sensations were much more prominent and constant. It's been about a month since drinking caffeine and it has gotten slightly better (there were some periods of time where I felt complete numbness in a portion of my head and the strangest pains). I'm hoping that if I give it plenty of time (and avoid drugs like I have been) then it will go away completely. It's a lot more constant now where I deal with it for longer periods of the day.
Zebrafish or others - Do you have any speculation why a cup of tea w/ caffeine would make my head paresthesia come back much stronger than before?
Also
Zebrafish do you have any speculation on why the hell MDMA could give someone head paresthesia? I know that's a pretty complex question but I just don't get the correlation between taking MDMA and suffering with problems with nerves in my scalp. I've read that head paresthesia is common with people with damaged nerves so maybe MDMA damaged my nervous system a little and the connection with my scalp nerves and the damaged nerves are causing the symptoms I'm dealing with?
Pmz is right that a neurologist will probably give you a blank stare if you tell him/her your story.
Yea going to a neurologist would probably be something I'd do far down the road. I realize I just have to give myself time for the brain to do it's natural re-wiring.
Thanks for the support you have no idea how much it is appreciated going through times like this where I just want to be back to how I was before three months ago. Actually it's been about 3.5 months now. It's nice going onto these forums because it's practically impossible to relate with anyone I talk to off the internet about this. My parents support me but don't know what to say and don't ask about it and my friends have taken much more MDMA than me and at greater frequencies and didn't even know things like what I'm going through can happen. They have no idea what to say other than 'I feel bad' and 'I hope shit gets better'. Most of my friends have a hard time even believing what I'm going through - like I'm lying about it. I'd feel completely alone in this without Bluelight. I have friends that night who took the exact same dose and molly as me and were back on their feet completely within days after taking it.
I feel like frequency of use is the key factor.
It is a key factor but there so many more factors out there that matter. Just to name a few - brain chemistry, amount of MDMA taken, the cleanliness of your 'MDMA' (test your shit even though I didn't), environment, pre-loading/post-loading, re-dosing, drugs taken with your roll, etc. The last roll that gave me trouble I last rolled six months prior to it and took 333mg. of molly (didn't test it but my friends came out fine) and pre-loaded and post-loaded and dealing with symptoms 3.5 months later. My point is even if you do space out your rolls you can still get fucked.
