Could snorting help prevent a bad come down?

I have problems with the MDMA come down and I was thinking maybe since snorting lasts a lot shorter, the come down would also be shorter. Also, snorting hits you harder so you could potentially still get a fairly strong roll of less material for a shorter time, thus hopefully shortening the recovery period. Would this work?

I know MDMA is supposed to best orally but in my (relatively few) experiences I've had actually better experiences snorting it anyway.
 
Nope. Snorted 500mgs over the course of 6 hours and I'm having the worst comedown depression I've ever had.
 
From what I've come to understand through experience, anything that increases the bioavailability (it has said snorting can be up to a 30% increase, but BA's are sometimes unreliable to go by), and induces a shorter action time, the comedown happens to be much more intense. I would understand if you would, say, want to sleep earlier, this inducing the comedown would be beneficial. But as for the comedown, I find it can become more rough.
Not backed scientifically, nor do I have anything to cite, but this is just experience.

And you don't think that could have anything to do with the fact that you snorted five times a normal dose of what might not have even been MDMA?

But more intense for a shorter period, no?
 
That's correct. It just depends on whether you would want a smoother (which isn't that smooth, regardless) comedown that will be longer, or a more intense one for a shorter period.
I'm not sure if this is psychological or not, but I find myself still feeling like shit even after the comedown. Do you have any aids to help calm your nerves during the comedown? I promised myself never to do psychostimulants without having a couple of 'helpers', but who are we kidding, that is a promise I consistently break.
 
if i redose more than once i always snort the last redose. i have a feeling that this shortens the sometimes uncomfortable time after coming down but before going to sleep, where you mainly feel drained and weird...

I use valerian but it doesn't help very much. It's the depression that gets me the worst and it's so profound I am not even sure what could help with it.
 
If you aren't taking any SSRIs, one thing I'd suggest is a succulent plant grown in South Africa by the name of Kanna, sceletium tortuosum. It's a common ethnobotanical; most ethno vendors will have it in stock. If you have access to a computer, CC, and a home mailbox, it may be worth a try. There are many people that claim you never feel any MDMA comedown. I've tried it on its own; it's a wonderful little thing. But the combo may be worth researching on. If what they claim is true, then it would not only solve your problem, but, God, everyone else's. An easy search of 'Kanna for MDMA comedown' can provide you with enough information to make your own judgement.
I would love to hear, if you decide to go down that road, how effective it is.
 
I agree with blxg. I too snorted around 400-500mg the first time i tried MDMA 7 month ago and the comedown was terrible i felt bad for days

I highly doubt you snorted 500 mg of real MDMA.

First MDMA use --> 500 mg of unadulterated and uncut MDMA snorted and you would have been a puddle of unresponsive goo (even if you broke it into 150 mg 3 times)
