Weird feeling of pressure on my head after taking E pills with weed.

Hello everyone.

I was actually hoping someone from here can tell me what I am going through.

I know taking pills without testing is stupid. But after this experience I don't think I'll ever go back to using drugs so.

Started taking ecstasy pills around 3 years ago for the first time. I was taking 1 to 2 pills max a night and I was always keeping a minimum of one and a half month between every roll. I eventually quit taking it around a year ago. I took probably around 15 pills in that 2 year period. I was always rolling with weed on the side though.

Last Saturday, my friend wanted to go for some nostalgia so I said OK. 2,5 pills and a lot of weed. We rolled around 6 hours. When it ended, I was very tired and felt like my blood pressure was low. I went to sleep directly but I couldn't sleep well.

Since the morning of Sunday, I feel lightheaded. Not like disconnected from life, vice versa, I want to watch TV, sports, hang out and do stuff but I can't because of this condition.

You know how you feel during starting of flu? Dizzy and shitty all over your body. Like tired even though you aren't, constantly want to sleep etc.

My initial fear is that I have caused myself nerve damage. That my brain is fucked up for good and it won't get any better. It's the fifth day. I feel like I'm getting better slowly but still. I don't think it is caused by low serotonin because I never felt like this in my past experiences.

I don't know what to do. I decided to go to a doc and explain everything but I want to hear your experiences or thought if you have any.

Did a similar thing ever happened to somebody from here?

Side note: A friend of mine who took pretty much the same stuff with me plus some ADHD pills (named Ritalin I guess) too felt messed up for a few days but he managed to pull himself together and he got through it much easier.

Another side note: Compared to how I was the first day I feel better. It is the fifth day. I believe my serotonin is getting back up but I don't know the reason of this feeling on my head.

Thanks for your time!

i think you will probably feel better within the next week or two, i'm not really sure what the doc can suggest considering that nobody knows what you took.

its said alot.. but but if you want the recovery to be faster it would help to exercise every day, eat whole healthy foods, get outside, do some reading, get your mind off worrying that you have nerve damage.
the brain is very good at healing itself.

Thanks for taking your time to reply. Appreciated big time.

I was actually pretty annoyed but right now, I care less. I feel like I'm returning to normal even though my head is still heavy and feels annoying.

I don't get brain zaps nor any symptoms of Serotonin syndrome which crosses out the probability of nerve damage or neurotoxicity I guess (I'm not sure though)

You may have nailed it! It may be my imagination, but I quite often catch a cold after rolling - I wonder if my immune system is compromised. Let us know how your recovery goes - it might be useful for others who find/found themselves in the same situation.

yeh the immune system often takes a hit after a night on mdma. sore throat, swollen lymph glands etc.

things that can boost the immune system are vit c, olive leaf extract, echinacea.

Well, I feel like getting better without any questions!

I had this pulsating on my left temple which is now gone. Sometimes still happens but it most certainly is going away.
I had motion sickness-like nausea which is no more.
My head was really dizzy. Now it is much much better.

I am still not completely healed but I'm making progress. I am at least convinced that it is probably not something as bad as I thought it was like permanent nerve damage or neurotoxicity. I probably got messed up from roll or weed was laced or something combined with negative thoughts and I got myself my situation. I am healing though. I have read two very similar cases where people eventually healed in around a month. I think I am similar on that basis.
