its all personal preference. I used to just power thru, chill on the sofa with a quilt and watch comedy tv box sets. Eat a macdonalds when i feel ready to eat and spend the rest of the day just chillin with a nice glow. These days though my body is not so kind to me and come downs are slightly harder to handle so a short acting Benzo a good few hours after my last pill does the trick. How do you manage the morning after?
 
a few years ago i used to hate the come down. would turn my phone off, get really paranoid, get headaches, have no appetitie whatsoever and generally felt like death. now however its nothing like that. i can easily manage my come downs these days, and while id rather stay at home, ive got no problem carrying on with my day as usual. i suppose its some kind of tolerance/experience.
 
hi done juan. I see a lot of you around the forums. Yeah i find I'm the opposite. Used to be fine but as the years have passed i find the anxiety too much to handle. Physically i just want to chill. In the right company i can find a come down a breeze. Been a while since i last took ecstasy as its scarce round here. Mkat is my doc lately but i find the come down a breeze and have no trouble sleeping. Not looking forward to tomorrow but Hopefully with the help of a Benzo, should be able to keep anxiety at bay.
 
in terms of the come down, i only use benzos as a last port of call, but will avoid if i can. i only take them for helping to sleep. ime its definitely easier managing a come down on your own rather than being with others.
 
I never need anything for a come down except some good sleep, a few tv shows to watch, and a big healthy meal at the end of the day. I've been lucky so far and I'm hoping as long as I stay healthy that will continue :)
 
I Usually chill round a mates, have a few spliffs going round and play some xbox. I try and eat some fruit aswell as it's the only thing i can stomach. I don't do as much mandy as I used too so I get a real nice afterglow rather than a grim comedown now so it's all good.
 
aaargh weed! cant stand the stuff these days.. for sure would send me in to a panic attack on a comedown. i tend to use benzo's as a last resort too, if i can hack the comedown i will. this is only with mephedrone tho. i took speed a few weeks back and the comedown was horrific so i took a benzo to sleep and it worked wonders. never taken benzos for a mdxx comedown. plan to tomorrow if i cant hack the anxiety. i dont drink alcohol on stims, may have one or two early on in the night to get the party started but thats it. benzo's just seem to give me the mind frame to chill and possibly sleep, by the next evening, even more so. sometimes i can fall asleep on return from a night out almost as soon as i hit the pillow, still wake up the next day feeling pretty shocking though, it varies.
 
i think the major turning point for me was/is food. as i said previously i couldnt stomach anything in the past, but these days i look forward to eating after a session. i think the basic nutrients in food really do help loads for a speedy recovery
 
Vitamin C is said to be good for the comedown, as is Vitamin E maybe.
Also L-Theanine, as the mechanism is neuroprotective on the brain.

I always find cannabis especially enjoyable after being on mdma, it seems to be more euphoric and dreamy with plenty of closed eye visuals, however i always do a small amount of ketamine (bumps) after being on mdma as i find it smooths the comedown and gives you a second rush.
 
Yeah i agree food Makes all the difference if you can stomach it. I Sometimes make myself eat even when feeling like i can't manage a bite. Vitamin c i never even thought of. I have some handy so I'll give it a try. I also have melatonin but find it pretty useless to be honest.
 
Ketamine. Get mangled on K for a day or two an there really is no comedown, well for me anyway. But I usually take vitamins and maybe eat some greasy food.
 
never tried ket. It never appealed to me as a party drug let alone to help come down from a stimulant. Back in my speed binge days i would take it for 3 days and eventually just fall to sleep from drinking stupid amounts of alcohol. Certainly not my finest hour lol. On the flip side i never experienced a come down. Not until a few months later when the novelty of speed wore off then it became my worst drug to come down from. Hate the stuff now. MDXX has always had a more gentle come down that Doesnt leave me in a state of paranoia but more thinkin 'what a night' as i say tho, the older I've become, the more my brain and body Doesnt like it.
 
I'll smoke a few bowls once I start to come down, and if possible sleep about an hour later. I find it pretty easy to fall asleep while the roll is still going rather than after I completely come down, especially if I'm really stoned haha. But that's really only if you don't overdo it on the MDxx, otherwise you'll be too speedy to sleep.
 
after i comedown:

drink plenty of water and some orange juice, i usually take like 10 pisses in less than an hour lol
eat something soft since my mouths usually fucked up - eggs, mac n cheese, veggies, rice
sit outside for a little while
take some multi-vitamins
take some melatonin
smoke a bowl or 2
sleep for at least 8 hours
stay away from fast food, caffeine, other drugs, for the next few days

my comedowns are never really that bad to be honest and i think it's this combo that makes it all work. if i exercised and quit smoking cigs, i'd prolly feel even better afterwards...
 
Few joints, booze. But I've noticed this wacks me out big time. Sometimes I don't feel like drinking alcohol.

Defo like some benzos to get to sleep though
 
K is really good for a comedown at the end of the night on pills :) but since i don't have any later will be a few nice joints and off to to sleep. Tomorrow I will have a few joints and leave it as a lazy day.

I don't really get bad comedowns off pure MD
 
My comedowns are nothing, never bothered me. I do, however, love to just pop a benzo and just knock the fuck out.
 
Damn, maybe cause i've only rolled as many times as i can count on my fingers and months in between, i don't think the comedown is bad at all. id hardly call it a comedown, by the time i'm coming down it just kinda feels right and ready. like coming off a trip, just feels natural.

Usually just talk on the comedown, watch tv, quiet music, walk around maybe.
