Am I over-doing this too much? (High Pill Count)

Im a late bloomer, and ive barely started raving since last year 2013. My first rave was oct 26, 2013 escape from wonderland. That was the event that i lasted the whole night. Ever since then the other events ive been to I floor too early, because I ive taken too much. I would be sitting down in the middle of the stage, just being in my own world. Sort of like a trance. Not to the point where i need help, though. But the people around me do ask if im alright, which i am.

So. My pill count is: (oct - present)

Misc - 2
Escape 2013 - 4
White Wonderland 2014 - 5 (floored near the end of dashes set)
Crush 2014 - 6 (floored forgot what dj)
Krewella - 1
NRG 2014 - 5 (floored most of the trap sets) (3 ataris, 1 purple pound, 1 red monster)

Thats 23. And I EDC is aruond the corner, which is going to be, or might be my first EDC.

Thats not even a full year. Am I getting out of hand?
 
In my opinion, yes, that is a bit out of hand. I think if people around you feel the need to make sure you're alright (even if you're still somewhat kind of in control of yourself), that's a sign!
General consensus among the people on these forums is that 200mg is about as much as your want to take in a night. Most pills are between 100mg and 200mg, so the most you want to be taking in a night is 2. Six is a LOT.

Here's my advice, to keep MDMA fun and to keep yourself safe:
Buy a reagent test kit (I buy the ones called Mandelin and Marquis) from Dancesafe or Eztest online. Ordering chemical test kits is not illegal in most of the world, and these kits test your MDMA to tell you what's actually in it. It's a very simple idea, all you have to do is scrape off the tiniest bit of your pill into the chemical tester, and it lets you know what's in it. This way, you know if you're getting totally shit stuff. This can prevent medical emergencies. Seriously. You MUST take drugs seriously because there is a lot of random chemical shit out there right now being passed off as MDMA, and some of these chemicals can be deadly. Please look up PMMA and the many deaths that it has caused in recent years...its effects on you are similar to M, but it takes more to get that feeling (read: 3 pills instead of 1) and it affects your body's ability to regulate temperature that people are getting seizures and dying after a couple of pills.

Now when your test kit arrives, test your gear. If it is indeed MDMA, and not some other shit, you should only need 1 or 2 pills over the course of the evening. Any more than that and you know you're going overboard. You do NOT need to be floored. If you are floored, you probably took too much! Take care of yourself and be safe!
 
You are probably overdoing it but most people usually do at first. It's kind of normal but I should advise you to slow down in the interest of harm reduction.

Pill count doesn't mean anything though. Some pills are stronger than others. The most important factor is time spaced in between rolls Ideally you should wait 3 months.
 
it's been said before but yes it's too much, for reasons listed above. but also because you don't remember certain parts of the night

for example, i did 4 (100mg per cap) in a night for a couple events, that i've since regretted. i can't remember certain parts of the night, it's just a haze... and i wish i could remember more of what happened :(

you're paying good $ to go to these events, might as well remember (most) of it.

2-3 is my sweet spot. i'm sure the product i get is somewhat cut, despite clearly testing as mdma on a marquis reagent. stay safe
 
The more I take MDMA, the more I realise less is more.

18 months on from my first time and my dosages are steadily getting lower

I've been there and done half a gram or more in a night, but I find that if you're so messed up that you can barely speak, you lose a lot of the best parts of experience (closeness with your friends and the people around you, deep conversations about life, etc)
 
When I first start, my experienced buddy told me this;
1. Do not use more than 2 pills, in festivals more than 3 pills. Do not consume alcohol.
2. Do not use it on weekdays. Use it 1 day in a week only.
3. If you don't feel comfortable, don't use on that day.

All about this. I've come to the realisation that anything more than an initial 120mg, followed by 1 or 2 redoses, really doesn't add anything I want.
 
If you are truly getting floored to the point you zone out sitting in the middle of a rave dance floor do you really have to ask such a question? It probably means you are taking way too much for your tolerance/weight. Do you want to lose the magic fast or something? Really do you want to risk losing the magic of beautiful molly?
 
totally doing it wrong. The scariest part to me isnt that you're getting 'floored' but that you're just listing the pills you took without really knowing whats in them.
 
for someone like you, thats tok much. Insomniac is throwing events quite often these days...you gotta just pick and choose which ones to roll at broham. You are probably going to have a slightly off feeling after EDC...the rest of the summer/fall will probably result in dpression.
