It's not symptoms anymore. It's the bullshit I've always dealt with but turned a blind eye too before.
Hey there mate, I just wanted to say welcome to this great place full of so many really cool, decent, open minded and extremely knowledgeable and friendly individuals.Hello, I have been ghosting this thread for a while now since my LTC (2 months, 1 week in as of now) began and I finally decided to make an account to join in on the discussion. The symptoms are still pretty much there but I have lessen them a lot with proper exercise, a decent diet, and a few mushrooms I started taking, Lion's mane and Cordyceps to be exact. Lion's Mane was pretty huge for me in terms of removing stuttering and helping so called "3D thinking". Sadly my memory was still pretty bad as I had a hard time with conversations. Later I started taking Cordyceps at the same time and it alleviated my cognitive problems even further.
What I want to say is that I recommend people to experiment with mushrooms such as Lion's mane. It is proven that it is neuroprotective and most importantly, promotes neurogenesis. The only problem with Cordyceps is that you get boners more often and semen retention gets harder and harder (hehe). Just a month ago I felt like I was a ghost, mentally drifting through places, now with these mushrooms I can actually watch movies and have an easier time understanding them.
Lastly, I wanted to ask if I am the only one with this kind of physical symptom where my eyes atleast once a day start shaking rapidly left and right for about 30 seconds. It only becomes disturbing when reading something upclose. I googled about it and the proper name for it appears to be "Nystagmus". It may be that my anxiety creates it as every time I start to think about it, it happens again, but at other times it comes just out of nowhere.
Hey. I think I missed this part somehow. Just adding to my recounted story, I did also receive some extended energy healing sessions in 2007 by a gifted visionary energy healer who could literally see and observe energy.I've been working with energy healers and spiritual healers lately and it's doing so much good for me. Find what works for you but if you like the woo woo energy healing and that sort of thing then definitely now is the time to try it out.
Hey Guys,
Updating as it's been another week. Feeling good mentally, the headache is very very slight but there. It's still on the left and right sides of my head above my ears.
The stomach discomfort comes and goes. Someday's it's worse and someday's not very noticeable at all.
Last week I started noticing floaters in my left eye more than usual. I've noticed them before the MDMA, but this time it seems they are there more often (perhaps I'm just noticing them more). Not sure what to think of it. Also as of today my right eye started to sort of twitch/vibrate a little. It doesn't mess up my vision, again it's just noticeable. I sit in front a computer most of the day so maybe it's that as well.
The worrying of these things actually interrupts my life more than the symptoms itself. Perhaps these symptoms are all anxiety related and have nothing to do with the MDMA abuse at all.
I started having problems with floaters 2-3 years before any drug use. One day a large amount just appeared in both of my eyes. At first, it was a huge problem for me but as time passes, your brain just gets used to them plus they somewhat fade. After getting involved in this LTC, I too have had thoughts if the number of floaters have increased in my eyes and i'm not entirely sure. For me, it doesn't really matter because there are so many in both my eyes that its hard to distinguish them. If they are a real pain in the ass during internet browsing then I suggest downloading a chrome extension called "Dark Reader", which essentially reverts all the colors on pages, making white black and black to white etc, and its also easier on the eyes. What I want to say is that don't worry too much about them and it will be fine.
Lately, a lot of people have started discussing about how pineapples can get rid of floaters in your eyes. If you're interested, you can read all about it here:
Hey mate. Just hang tough now, grab a hold of those ropes. Where you are right now is totally different to where I am at myself.I feel like I’m going backwards now. My family and surroundings seem foreign to me. I feel more down than usual. It seems like this reality is not my reality if that makes sense. I don’t know how to deal with this shit. Headache is pretty much gone and so is stomach discomfort. I feel like I’m crazy and not in control of my thoughts sometimes. It’s scaring the shit out of me.
Random thought, maybe it wasnt the mdma that caused a ltc, maybe we were just already depressed people even before we tried it. Food for thought.
LTC = you suffer depression in the first place? Could be.
I actually was slightly depressed before mdma but this incredible drug made my eyes open, it made me love the world as a whole. I started having interest in a lot of activities, I became more sociable, went out a lot more. This directly lead to the abuse of the drug, and ofcourse, LTC. I sometimes wish I stopped halfway through because that was when I was at my peak of my emotions but how do you do that when your addiction of the drug is at the highest?Random thought, maybe it wasnt the mdma that caused a ltc, maybe we were just already depressed people even before we tried it.

I am sure I had many spells myself of experiencing major depersonalisation, or derealisation, whichever is most accurate and applicable (they do seem to be used interchangeably).I'm in the same boat as you. I first took MDMA in October 2018. I had an amazing experience, one pill 250mg. I split the pill in half and re-dosed after 45mins as instructed by my friend.
I then rolled again on about 90mg in a capsule about March. This second experience really opened my eyes and emotions. This is where I believe I should have stopped. After this second time I was excited to meet people and I started dating people again. Though I was still missing my ex and work got more stressful.
The third time I was so excited to feel that again, that nothing could have stopped me from rolling. I ended up abusing it, and am now paying the price.
EDIT:
Does anyone think I'm experiencing mild depersonalization? There doesn't seem to be much research about it and it doesn't seem to go away, almost like a new way of living. I really hope this isn't the case.
Lion's mane is incredible. Now, I am not sure if this mushroom helped speed up the recovery proccess (probably though) but it helped with the overall feeling of well-being. My thoughts became clearer, had more motivation to do things, music became enjoyable. I suggest experimenting with other mushrooms too, like cordyceps. I made a post about this 2 days ago but basically taking Lion's mane and cordyceps together removed a great amount of brain fog for me.Hello fellow LTCers, another long time lurker first time poster here. I’m 5 months in as of the other day. Had a big night on the piss end of February ending up taking an unknown amount of mdma, or what I believed to be and yeah woke up the next day with the worst anxiety and depersonalisation ever.. things seemed to return to normal a week later then a couple weeks after that I just ended up feeling not quite right, agitated anxious. This became more and more frequent and I then began experiencing anhedonia/depression on and off. I seen both a dr and a psychologist gave a couple antidepressants ago but couldn’t tolerate the side effects so set out to recover from this on my own terms! Iv tried a fair few supplements but never noticed a real improvement. Iv got my hands on some BCP 157 but don’t particularly want to use an experimental chemical/peptide just yet! I am however about to try some Lions mane of really good quality, I think the brand is Oriveda, bloody expensive but they reckon this is the closest to pharmaceutical grade you can get so I’m going to give it a go and report back after 2-3 weeks of taking it. Fingers crossed it will help somehow with the agitation and bouts of anhedonia I am still experiencing! I Will definitely keep you guys in the loop if it’s any good. Anyone else here had any luck with Lions mane?
