Is MDMA good for being on stage?

i know plenty of people who have played on stage while rolling. i have practiced my drums while rolling so dont worry about the over heating aspect of it. just drink water between songs and you will be ok. but i would wait until after your first show. you want to remember it and be sober for it.
 
^ Well I don't wanna redose, because I hear the benefits don't match the harms after your initial serotonin surge happens, but I don't want a weak experience, I did it St. Patricks Day with .16 and it was amazing, therapeutic and enhancing but the peak wasn't too high and it didn't stay strong for long. I just put it on my tongue though, this time I'll be capsuling it and I'll be looking for one dose to do the trick. Given the circumstances I do want to make sure I keep the control I had last time but just get a lil bit higher.

I'm 150 pounds, 6 feet

In my experience: redosing is fine, as long as you hit your 2nd dose before your peak full comes on. I do this everytime and have yet to have a bad comedown/hangover. The trick is to pop your second dose right after you start REALLY coming up.

However: I can understand you not wanting to redose at all. In that case: I would suggest a 200 mg (0.2 g) dose. That should get you a nice peak and not plant you on your ass!

If I were to take a second dose before I reached my peak what would the benefit be for my high? Does it make you roll hard or roll longer, or both? Is there a higher risk of serotonin depletion? (I experienced no negative side effects from .16 but I've never re-doses)
 
For me: The larger first dose is what will give you a good, strong peak. The smaller 2nd dose will take that peak, and make last longer.

From a neurological standpoint: I have no idea whether you run a higher risk at serotonin depletion. However, I would be inclined to think that your receptors will actually down regulate/block themselves before you ever actually ran OUT of serotonin (this hypothesis is stemming from research done last semester in a senior level cell physiology class: I am by NO means an expert)

Where the problems from redosing come from is when you dose... wait till after your peak has hit, then try to bring it back.... You can't bring it back, you can only extend it to an extent.


As a personal example, this is my typical night of dosing (I am 5'2.5", 127 pounds):

T=0: I will drop 1.5 to 2 tabs (pokeballs, which are roughly 80 mg of MDMA each.... so this is 120-160 mg)

I come up slower than most other people I know, so my second dose will be something like

T=45-80 minutes: drop another 1-1.5 tabs (80-120 mg) (depending on what my initial dose is)

When all is said and done, my total consumption is around 300mg, and I will feel the effects of the MDMA for 6-8 hours with a good 4-4.5 being a nice, strong (but controllable) peak.
 
With the dosage described above, I always feel better than fine the next day. No hangover or depression whatsoever. In fact, I tend to have a slight afterglow.

That being said: your body works differently than mine. Given that you said 160 mg gave you a good experience, but not quite strong enough: I'm inclined to think that a dose/redose of 200mg with 100 mg roughly an hour later would give you just what you're looking for.

:D

Nice! If it feels strong enough I'll just save the 100 but if it's coming on slow I'll pop it

Excellent idea man! The only thing I'll say about that is: if you decide not to take the 100.... stick to your guns and DO NOT pop it as you're coming down....

Some people get to fiending pretty bad on a comedown and want to redose in an epic way. Just remember: once that peak is done: another dose WON'T bring it back!
 
It depends how much you have used mdma in the past and how experienced you are with it. I have done it quite a few times before and I don't think I'd be able to handle doing it onstage! I just don't feel like I could handle it. That being said, I bet my boyfriend would be just fine, just because of the way it affects him and how he can handle it.

Mdma does tend to get rid of social anxiety but I don't think it would be right for your performance.

I would recommend against it.
