Time passes too quick on MDMA, can you slow it down?

When I take MDMA time flies away and before I know it fiver hours has gone and the effect has gone :(

When I take psychedelics time moves slowly and the trip feels like a big long adventure.

So my question is, when I take MDMA, can I take a little mushrooms too (maybe just 0.3 grams?) and by doing that make time pass more slowly?

What do you knowing people say about this idea?
 
MDMA is euphoric, Thus your having fun.

You know what the saying is, Time flies when your having fun ;)
That's why set and setting is important for mdma, to make the most of it!

On average from 1 dose of 100mg, i feel that for a good 3 hours, then the 4th hour its in waves.
 
Candyflipping and adding 2c-i or 2c-d is a good method to slow it down.
Another advantage of adding lsd/2c-i/2c-d: you need less mdma=>less neurotoxic :)
 
If you find a way to defy the laws of relativity by having fun while slowing down time, let us know and we'll refer you to the Nobel Prize Committee.
 
Time dilation. OP simply needs to be rolling while on a spaceship approaching the speed of light. ;)

Even so, he would experience time as he would normally do. So the 4 hours would still pass fairly quickly. However, after coming down and landing on earth, the rest of the universe would have aged thousands of years while he would only be 4 hours old. Time is relative depending on who is doing the observing, you can't really experience it yourself any different or compress it somehow so that it's all slower. Even if the people on earth saw you rolling for that 4 hours (would actually be thousands of years for them) while riding in your spaceship approaching but never achieving the speed of light - that would only actually be dilated time, like a dilated song on Sony Vegas 9.0. It will sound like a lot slower when played, but the reality is that the song is still the same song, just played slower. - so if people would be able to see what you were doing, it would (but only from their perspective) take hundreds of years for you to blink once for example. They would basically see you in SUPER-slow motion. Almost frozen in time. All this while you would experience time exactly the same. You just can't make those subatomic particles move any slower. Isn't that is what time basically is? Entropy? The energy left off from the big bang? Just billions of particles and atoms and shit moving under the leftover energy, changing states: matter to energy, energy to matter? Just that time can move faster or slower depending on the observer. There is no such thing as absolute time.

OP, Einstein and many other scientists tried to answer your question all their life. But so far, the laws of physics tell us that your wish of slowing down time for yourself is probably not going to come true.

What you could do however to abuse the exception to the rule: take your E during math class. Better yet, make sure you have 4 consecutive math classes.


Disclaimer: This weird phenomenon is not really understood by the scientific community, where the motion of the quarks inside the protons and neutrons and the electrons and the subsequent electromagnetic and strong nuclear force seem to all slow down during math class.

I was hoping you and a bunch of other people (hopefully certified quantum physicists) would join in and continue the discussion. I really think there is some progress to be made.

It's not really a serious discussion, though. Us physicists like to joke around quite a lot too you know? We get bored in our small labs. I mean sure, levitating is fun, but after a while it gets quite old and you start posting on bluelight.

what you are saying has some value, but there is no evidence to suggest that time actually goes faster when you are on MDMA, but simply because of an increased amount of serotonin in the brain, your life seems to go past more quickly. think about all the times your neurotransmitters have been overstimulated. time goes more quickly doesn't it? like when you enjoy something be it chocolate or anything for the first time. you release certain chemicals in your brain under which stress is under stimulated, euphoria is stimulated and as such you experience a sort of "time travel" so to speak. the same goes for alcohol, your brain is still aware of its actions, but under heavy doses your brain shuts off its motion of self-defence, known as vision. i believe that anything we enjoy goes faster than normal, simply because we enjoy it, it seems as if it will never pass or stop and as such we motion a sense of forgetfulness and inhibition which cannot be complimented in normal life. essentially altering brain chemistry temporality ends up with a change in our perception of time and space as we know it, and as such the times we remember and enjoy in life seem short rather than long and drawn out as unpleasant experiences under which our brains are under the influence of under-serotonin production levels.

Yeah, I know. Math class really sucks.

no, math class doesn't suck, reality sucks. there is no time-space continuum under which MDMA acts on unfortunately. the way to making MDMA last longer is to not enjoy it as much, as things we tend to enjoy go past quicker than those we don't. its basic psychology. inhibition of our actions also acts on us this way, most seemingly under the influence of alcohol, which tends to take away a persons inhibitions rather quickly depending on the circumstances/condition of the individual. MDMA doesn't act in the same way, but also influxes an increase in serotonin in some, much like an increase of dopamine in amphetamine users, which an individual will stick to and love so much as to chase it for the rest of their lives. YMMV , all drugs affect people diffenretly at different times. you can't compare an individuals experience to your own, especially if they are someone you don't fully understand or know.

personally, the use of xanax would not actually decrease the roll time (as in experience time) but simply allow me to sleep with more regularity and without disturbance over the next 12 hours or so. it would also help me with the lack of serotonin in the brain the day after as well - as GABA seems to reduce anxiety etc, which would be apparant 12 hours or so later, if i would take an extended dose of around 2mg XR. this is once again just personal experience, and isn't conclusive of any boosts in regard to time passing slower on MDMA, but rather a way of mitigating your tim effectively to experience the full high of the MDMA, rather than be e-tarded when you wake up/during the evening in personal experience.

according to some sources xanax does kill the high of MDMA, but it rather in my case, made it stronger and more profound.

I'm not trolling. Maybe I'm tired and just didn't get your point...? Why? Reality and math classes and discussing adjectives attributed to them is very relevant depending on every person's opinion on them.

I just don't think reality sucks.
Oh, it may suck because you can't slow down time ? But if you could slow down time, then reality as we know it would cease to exist. It would have to be a different reality (universe) with other sets of rules which would probably be very different from this one and would probably not support life so we probably wouldn't be having this discussion.

So the reality we are living in is probably the only reality where the existence of humans, as we are now, is possible. Eh?
Certainly we couldn't live in a universe where time could be slowed down just to enjoy an MDMA trip, right?
 
i'm saying that while under the influence of a drug which effects us positively, time will be influenced differently under the according statement that time passes more quickly when you are having fun. who can honestly say that a time which they were under stressful or harmful conditions passed quickly? this is why i associated MDMA with a serotonin imbalance in the brain - you are under the influence of excess serotonin, which is pre-cursor to feeling good. this means that time in your eyes will pass more quickly, even though it still remains the same within the normal earth's sphere. it's odd how a brain can alter facts and reality to ones perception of a time that has passed too. there are times where drugs can affect the brain and temporal memory loss is possible too. do you count this as memory speeding up, or memory loss? if so, what is the difference? if you are going so quickly that you can't remember anything that happened, what is the difference to someone who can remember glimpses of their drunken/sober encounter with certain elements too? what realy affects the brain in learning as well - how can we learn and remember something in our LTR rather than our STR? its a myth we al want to uncover but unfortunately cannot at the present time.
 
Time passes more quickly when you are having fun => I don't agree.
I always have fun on lsd: a trip of 8 hours feels like a day to me...
Even on 6-apb I feel like I walk for days on a party...
