Some of my favorite rolls have been solo. In fact my last roll was solo while living with my mom (she knows about my use and is okay with it as long as I don't drive or anything stupid like that). I wrote a report in the mega thread. My roll was just with mdma and I had a fantastic time listening to music, watching a movie, swimming, and at one point I peaked so hard I just laid down in my bed, closed my eyes and enjoyed the pure bliss.
I say go for it man.
Say no more lol
I have a really strong gut feeling that this is potentially the right moment. Don't know how to explain it but, what I do know is that every time I have this gut feeling about dosing a psychedelic, it turns out to be correct and I have a growing experience.
I have been using psychedelics more frequently than I have in years because I've had a TON of life changes happen very rapidly, so I'm always needed to look at things in different perspectives as they arise. The second is purely a rekindling of fascination with psychedelic compounds, as well as others. They do also have the pleasant benefit of helping keep my depression low or at bay.
But I'm have this feeling that there's something within the MDMA experience that contains something that I need to grow at this moment; something that psychedelics don't typically have within their unique experiences. I'm also reading PiHKAL and it's giving me confidence in the solo experience. There are 2 major things I suppose:
1 - I'm a mess. ADHD, PDD, GAD and PTSD; the latter which is a major source of difficulty in my day to day. I have a ton of trauma happening between ages 6-31. I turn 32 in 1 month. I'm hoping that a roll will help me brace for the oncoming processing of a life of repressed trauma, maybe help point me in a direction of where to start.
2- I jam a transgender woman, something I have struggled with my entire life. I finally grew a pair (ironically) and chose to stop living in fear and all that and started HRT. I started around my birthday, so it'lll be 1 year in a month. So I am still very early in the game. I still dress like a boy in public, although in mostly pink. My family, friends and most coworkers know of my transition. I want to have the confidence to live publicly as my honest self. I'm hoping that MDMA might help cast light upon the path that I must take to get there.
Now I need to figure out the dosage. I love MDA and in a lot of cases I prefer it over MDMA. I love the trippy sedating euphoria, but there's something within MDMA's clarity that's drawing me in. So I'll likely do with 120mg of MDMA + 10-20mg MDA? Maybe 130-140mg MDMA then an MDA booster later on along with a psychedelic or 2 or 3? or 4?
It's getting to be summer time, my favorite time of the year. My favorite setting for psychedelic and empathogenic experiences, as well as dissociatives. Maybe it's nostalgia but summer nights are by far my favorite set and setting for any drug.,
I've been hesitant about rolling solo as I struggle with depression, but I've seen some improvement and am prescribed adderall which should help with any blues the following day or 2.
I'd forget the LSD if set/setting isn't optimal (which it isn't..)
We're all different so your question is difficult, but I'd be considering an mdma/mda combo.
Ahhh, mda. It's been a while!
See, the funny thing is; I have tripped a number of times in this set & setting, often pretty hard and with multiple psychedelics and I always enjoy it. I have a decent ability to guide the trip if I hit rough waters and I treat them with respect and they have been sure to pay me back in kind.
I am leaning more towards MD(M)A) than a benzofuran, though the 5-APB has been calling my name as it's a very unique empathogen. I am leaning toward a moderate MDMA dose or a combo of MDMA/MDA. I'll ponder it over the course of the morrow
Thanks for the responses!
