Dear all,
I just found this site and decided to try my luck here.
I am struggling with some serious problems and I am quite confused....I would like to ask your opinion regarding my current issues, wheather they are caused by the MDMA use ,cannabis trip or simply having mental health problems. Here is my story. On the 27th of April I took one and a half blue extasy pills for a party. Everything went well, I had great time that night. Although, before the ride I was a bit of anxious (because of some family problems). I am not a one time user, I am rolling extasy for about 4 years now, casually. In the last time ususally I took extacy recreationally, every 2nd month generally. This year I used it in January, February and then April 17 and April 27th. So I can say that I used a bit more often this year. Anyway, I was feeling ok and usually the comedown was also fast, I slept well and in a few days I was totally recovered. I have to say that generally I am a sensitive, more anxious person. We took this last extasy trip with my boyfriend, we had the same amount, one and a half big pill (I think it was the blue diamond, but I am not sure). I have to mention that we also took from this pill before, but maybe a smaller ammount. We are buying the pills from safe source, so I think that we always took the real thing. (I live in Amsterdam, so quite safe I would say). For my boyfriend the comedown was normal as usually. For me the first 4 days were also good, I was feeling normal, like after a regular extasy comedown. On the 2nd of May I rolled a joint in the afternoon and I had a really bad panic attack. I am not sure if the joint caused it or not, but I have to say that on that day before I was also feeling a bit different. After the joint I felt something like depersonalisation. I felt like I was in a bubble, everything seemed vague and dreamlike. It was a really bad experience. In the past I had some similar experiences, about three times in my life, but those were only temporary, after smoking joint. Usually after the trip they were gone. Now this time I feel stuck. On the 2nd May, after the bad trip we had a bus to take to Berlin. (It was a planned trip). The 4 days we spent in Berlin were a nightmare to me. I usually love travelling, but this time I had anxiety all the time and one more panick attack one night. My head was blowing up, I had tinnitus, I was feeling dizzy and like I was not on this planet anymore. On the last night I could not sleep at all (!) and since then I fight with insomnia as well. Since then I had a month of terror, with weekly one or two not sleeping at all nights and over the day feeling scared and anxious. Some days are better, some days are worse. When I wake up I usually feel butterflies in my stomach as I think that I might have my symptons during the day and as the day passes I got really fed up with everything, and for the evening I am so nervous and my head is so full, that I am affraid that I can't sleep again. And which is even worse, that at some point every day I have some moments when I feel a bit depersonalized. I can control my fear now, but with this cloud in my mind effect is really hard to cope. Sometimes I think that I lose my control and I got scared of it. I also have some obbsessive-compulsive thoughts, that don't let me rest, but I am controlling that quite good. I went to the house doctor with my anxiety problems, he first thought that these effects were from the joint I rolled and prescribed me propranolol. That does not help me, only made my heart a bit slower. I went back after that and after seeing me desperate he gave me a few oxazepam pills. I took a half of them one night, but I don't want to become dependent on pills either, so I will only take it before the sleep if necessary. He referred me to a psychologist. I went once untill now, but that was only for a half an hour, and she adviced me to listen to mindfullnes music, do exercise etc. The next appointment is only on the 20th of June and I am quite nervous what will happen with me untill then. I can not concentrate, I am not interested in the activities I used to enjoy, and I am not cheerful anymore. I am not happy. I think I might become depressed. I think all the time of my condition. What do you think guys? What can I do untill I have the next appointment on the 20th of June? And how to cope with de brain fog episodes/depersonalization feelings? Those last usually only for few minutes, but they scare me a lot. I took in the first weeks magnezium, omega3 and multi vitamins, I bought also C vitamins and B vitamin complex. My house doctor told me to eat helathy and preferably not to take supplements. I am drinking Saint John's wort and valerian tea before sleeping.
Sorry for the long post, please let me know if you have any advise.
Greetings.
