In theory, some drugs should be consumed just once as one is supposed to learn all from the substance on the same experience. I do not know where I read that MDMA usage after 3 times is "useless" when speaking about possible changes of perspective to possitive.
I can certainly see where someone might form this opinion but I can assure you this is one I ABSOLUTELY and FUNDAMENTALLY do not share. See as I've aged the way in which I enjoy MDMA has changed substantially. It's evolved from a RAVE/party/event "let's all get fucked
for the sake of the RAVE/party/event" sort of experience to a Friend/Lover/Personal "let's get fucked together
for the sake of each other" sort of experience. Instead of living for and enjoying for the sake of someTHING I have evolved to enjoy it with people. This is why find myself continuing to expand myself and my relationships with others. By focusing on your friends/wife/lover/people you can share this introspection and not only explore yourself and who you are at your core but also your interpersonal relationships and who you are to others. You can delve into personal growth or interpersonal growth, which IMHO is always evolving.
But I think that, when you have a "controlled" drug behavior, respecting at the same time, your body, mind and environment, most of the substances can be of a different & profitable purpose on different stages of the life.
Absolutely. As your age and mature so does your mindset and outlook on life. Things that where once important no longer are and things that used to be no where near your consciousness all the sudden become a focus. You also learn more about who you are and what you want. All of these changes and maturations lend themselves to different applications of substances. Some more rewarding than others during certain periods of our lives.
MDMA can be very special if used the right way so I think there is some truth about that because I have learned so much. Ended up quitting because I found no point but hopefully will roll when the time feels right
This is very responsible of you. You're absolutely correct that it can and is very special when used correctly. When it becomes robotic and mundane that's a very sure sign that one is no longer using it correctly. IMHO it should always be something special and treasured. It's not the go-to substance when you just want to get fucked up. It's for creating a wonderful experience and taking that experience to a magical level. This could be an event, a party, a gathering, whatever. The point is it's not just for the every-day. It's for the special occasions.
I think when properly respected and maintained as a special circumstance sort of thing you can continue to have amazing, awe inspiring, mind expanding experiences WELL beyond your 3rd or 4th time. I can't even count how many experiences I've had on this substance. While it's certainly true that not all of them have been mind blowingly life changing I continue to have those experiences that lead me to grow personally, spiritually, emotionally, and connect with others on much deeper levels to this day.
