So how do people explain benders in Ibiza...

Often on ED people ask questions pertaining to rolling two nights in a row and what not, and it peaked my interest as to how people get by in Ibiza. Certainly there are loads of people who go there every summer, often rolling close to, if not an entire week straight and not many people talk about it. I was interested in hearing some stories/side effects from an Ibiza bender.

As an American who has never been (would have liked to go 10 years ago but alas I would have been 12), Ibiza seems like a place that people still cut loose a little bit more than anywhere else.

Use different drugs on different nights. People still went out and had fun before MDMA existed.

You can roll the dice and abuse MDMA for a week. You can also look around this forum to see the potential consequences.

Many people can probably get away with it. It just isn't very much fun if things go south.
 
What's so special about ibiza over any other week long event?


In fact, what's different from rolling for a week at Ibiza and holing up in your basement for a week popping pills all day? People will do what they want and worry about the consequences later.
 
I guess what I was getting at is that there are a lot of horror stories about 2 day festival experiences. But loads of people go on holiday and go on week long benders. I guess I was wondering about peoples experiences good/bad about their times going off the deep end in the balaeric breeze.

I don't think I really need to explain the difference between Ibiza and holing up in your basement Folley loll
 
It doesn't make it any less dangerous. Its a discussion topic, nothing more nothing less.
 
Nobody rolls for a week straight, there just isn't enough serotonin in the brain. Some people can manage two or three days, but they're in for a hell of a comedown.
 
My theory is... You're in fucking Ibiza. Honestly a lot of people tolerate the MDMA comedown really well, even after using multiple days IME. Hot twenty something's aren't going to waste their time discussing the intricacies of MDMA harm reduction when you are in Paradise with hot girls and guys clubbing your tits off at Cream or Amnesia.

Edit : I'm positive I could roll for a week straight. Give me the gear and I'll get to whacking.
 
I have actually come across one or two users on here frazzled from a weeks clubbing in ibiza so it does unfortunately go south from time to time.

I suspect a lot of the people dont actually take pills all week but perhaps combine things with days on the beach, drinking etc.

If I were to rewind the clock a little prior to my understanding and experience of abuse / long term comedowns I would probably have at least tried to get high a few times during the week.

I can imagine now however it must be a minefield of bunk pills.
 
I've done MDMA two days in a row a fair few times and no long term comedown. This forum is full of 'unlucky' people, the suffering always congregate to seek help. Those who are having a good time look on a different forum. How many of you were on this forum before you even tried MDMA? Not many I wager.
 
I ve been to Ibiza a fair few times..its a truly special place for me. A place for people from all around the world to take drugs and party, and its a beautiful place too.

2 years a go I went and did 6 nights back to back, mdma most days, booze, ket, coke and weed throughout the week also. Amazingly i never really suffered that badly. I think this had to do with a few factors. I was sleeping well, albeit benzo induced during and after the week long holiday, I was in the best physical shape of my adult life before I went, I supplemented with 5-HTP and i did have 2 off days without MDMA if i recall correctly. On those days Ket and coke were consumed. Other than that I really deserved the mother of all comedowns.

The following year I went for 10 nights and partied very hard again, however I ran out of benzos and 5-HTP. The following 2 weeks after I came back were torture. Total lethargy and fatigue, depression, lack of motivation and poor cognitive function. This was the longest comedown I had ever suffered and although I knew I would pull out of it (never let yourself think otherwise folks), I had moments of thinking "shit maybe I've over cooked myself" , But I would never let become my main thought. - Fortunately I eased myself back into exercise and healthy living and felt back to normal and ready to party again within 5/6 weeks. I actually started the Ibiza 2012 thread in EADD and I was so unmotivated, lethargic I could not be bother to update the thread with my holiday antics (which I said I would). I actually stayed off bluelight for about 4 weeks after my holiday.............the last thing i would of needed was to be reading and thinking I was in the midst of much written about (on bluelight) Long Term Comedown.......................

As it turns out im still here, and going back to Ibiza in 3 weeks :D

Being a resident of the UK I always feel the sun has mystical healing properties. We very rarely see the sun on these shores but when Im abroad on holiday I always seem to be able to push the drink and drugs a bit further without such a bad hangover or comedown. I don't know if this is just me but I never get a proper hangover when i drink abroad...might just be shit British booze.

I can imagine now however it must be a minefield of bunk pills.]

Not for the last 3 years....Most of the pills are the Dutch presses so pretty mighty fine. 2008, 2009 were not great years for MDMA pills anywhere in Europe.

Thousands of people from every corner of the globe all up for the Party, every dealer selling dutch pills and MDMA, good weed, good ket and (good by Europe standards) Cocaine. Combine that with the worlds top Djs playing everynight in the some of the worlds best clubs from June to October with guaranteed weather and things hot up nicely.

Having said that Im not liking the way the whole scene is moving in Ibiza, too many VIP areas and elitist snobbery in places. Completely losing what clubbing and dance music was about. There are still plenty places to go.

But hey if thats the same as someones basement can I get an invite?


The only place on my Radar that looks as good as Ibiza without lots of shitty commercial djs is the BPM Festival in Mexico...........Im going to go to that (hopefully) in Jan 2015
 
^ So partying with thousands of people is what makes this OK..? I wonder how those crowds are supposed to help with neurotoxicity..... it would seem with the lack of water, elevated club temperatures and easy access to drugs would only increase the eventual damage done.



I highly doubt anyone is able to roll for so long with NO consequences, they just accept that their actions have repercussions and deal with it for a few weeks till the next party.
 
oops.....i was skimming this thread and have quoted you out of context..............you were talking in the context of HR.

I have just ended up comparing a party in a basement and the party capital of the world.

Agreed, taking loads of pills no matter where in the world you are will lead to the same level of fuckness and potential damage...if we want to call it that.

Why do people do it more-so in Ibiza? People are on there holidays, letting there hair down more then normal and literally everyone else is doing the same........a bit sheep like. Fucked up sheep moo.
 
never been to ibiza but i did take mdma 4 straight days once. that (along with other drugs) made for a really hellish few days following.. never again
 
I wouldn't fuck with it. Why is there even a thought to roll that many days in a row? You're in fucking Ibiza! Enjoy the experience for what it is and use your drugs in responsible amounts and time frames. I've rolled 2 days in a row and while nothing bad happened, that 2nd day was nothing to write home about. You and only you have to feel your body when you're going home at the end of the week...don't be too hard on it.
 
It comes down to most people who go to these type of destinations being very young, carefree and naive.

Most of them would never even of visited sites like this and wouldn't really know what harm they might be doing longterm.

I know when I was of the 18 - early 20s I would probably of rolled multiple days and worried about it later.

Wish I could go back to them days! Haha

Finally the attitudes in Europe seem a little more relaxed than you guys that's for sure (wrongly or rightly)
 
some people can dose everyday for a week and shake it off without a second thought, other people flip out after a single dose.

not everyone is made for drugs.
 
I couldn't contemplate using MDMA for even two days in a row. A friend of mine said with the correct pre/post load and all the HR techniques in the book he was fine, and i'm sure I would be as well, but even on my cleanest and best MDMA rolls the next day I *could not contemplate* getting on it again.

Something about MDMA speaks to me and says...you've had your fun...now give it a rest :)

I know from personal experience (my honeymoon period rolling 6 weekends in a row) i'm the type who definitely should not abuse MDMA. And considering what we know about the drug nowadays and through this board I'd say rolling 2 days + in a row is definite abuse.

My 2 cents though.
