I know set and setting have an effect on a roll, but to what extent exactly? Like for psychedelics set and setting pretty much make up the trip entirely. So how much of a factor is it on MDMA?

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but last time I rolled I didn't feel much magic as I normally would, and my friends said it was most likely my surroundings and state of mind so I wanna see if this is to blame.
 
I think it's true. Nothing's worse on a roll than feeling hassled, rushed or put out. I tried rolling doing yard work once. What a waste.
 
It's difficult to articulate the reason why set and setting is important, I think you need to experience an *awesome* MDMA experience then compare it to a shitty one- the reason is usually Set and Setting...

I like using mdma to enhance special occasions, usually when we've used md as a party starter it's underwhelming and boring. A night out at a pub on MDMA will certainly not blow my mind like a day out at a music festival, the combination of hundreds of people, light shows, loud & repetitive sounds etc. is ecstasy :)

For me - its kind of a big deal. The rave experience is dependent upon the combination of: Music you love, great people to share it with & awesome lighting - all enhanced by MDMA. Its the overall experience that makes MDMA so special.
 
I think a music festival sober is a lot more fun than a night at the bars sober... doesnt have much to do with the drugs I think. Set and setting is really everything in life though, isnt it? If you're with fun people, you're probably going to have fun, drugs or not. I think ultimately, you make the trip. The external factors are just secondary.
 
MDMA without music must be the worst trip ever lol, NEVER do MD without music
Have some dank ass weed laying around for the comedown.. nobody can get paranoia off weed when still high off MDMA! Its the best comeback method imo (for me at least)
Never do MDMA without havin a way home afterwards, I did once and wanted to sleep on a bench in the park cause I was miiiiles away from home and fucked up
 
It is a huge factor.

Just be in a comfortable situation. I think raves are overrated for rolling. Great but not the ONLY way to do it. My favorite setting is just chilling with a few friends or smaller house parties. With a few friends its almost therapeutic. At the end of the day everyone feels closer than before, and you'll not forget it.
