Hi guys and girls,

Just wondering what you do when you go to festivals and take mdma. Considering they start early afternoon and go into the night...that's a hell of a long time! All the biggest acts will be towards the end so shall I just moderately drink until the evening then take it? Because I don't want to start dropping mandy and then by the evening I've run out of serotonin :( any tips or ideas would be great!

I dont drink, but i really do love music. So what i usually do is, enjoy myself with just soft drinks and water for a good few hours, then Drop just nearing 4 hours into the festival.
 
Just wait. You can have fun at the festival without rolling you face off too! haha, a lot of times I have a ton of fun in the afternoon just relaxing and smoking. Because I know that later, is when the real fun is going to begin. Hard to be in not a great mood, at a festival, that your going to roll at, ya know?

Basically I make it my goal to roll at the most fun time possible, and come down, pretty much as everything is starting to settle down. So whatever time that may be.
 
Cheers! Very sound advice yeah there's lot of other stuff to do during the day and it's time to enjoy with your friends before you go off into your own little world lol! Once again thank you! :)
 
Gotta keep self-control going. Never start to early. Always have Post-roll-therapy on hand :P
 
I went to a festival in the last month. I waited until saturday night to roll. It was sooo worth it. I did a SHIT ton of other stuff that weekend but waiting until the best time to roll and I had the time of my life. I met quite a few people and didn't feel burned out afterwards. Plus, IME, I have a better roll when I'm not feeling hot. I like to at night cause everything is a bit cooler temp-wise and its generally a more relaxed environment.

The day after, have some 5-HTP as well as some Piracetam if you can get them. Get some sunlight as well as some good meals in. I noticed that in the days after a roll, my mood was better if I ate well and took 5-HTP as well as Piracetam. The Piracetam is for cognitive boosts. It will help with that "slow" feeling that is sometimes present after a roll. (ime, always there as there is a lack of serotonin for a bit)

Plus, I bet many will do the same and drop at night :)
 
The best thing to do is pace yourself as everyone has said. The reality is it's fucking hard to pace yourself when friends are dropping, people around you are rolling their face off and the party is so catered towards getting off tits. When I was able to aquire MDMA, I fucked my first few festivals up dropping far too early and coming down at around the time most people were peaking. I then learnt to take a stimulant early on (usually dump a whole heap of meth), have a few drinks so that I'd dance around and feel into the vibe, then when the good acts I wanted to see were starting, start dropping that MDMA. Obviously, this isn't too safe healthwise, but if you're talking strictly about being able to resist temptation til later on so you don't comedown mid festival, taking some form of stimulant early on usually ensures that you're too pre-occupied to drop and that by the time you're coming down off the stimulant, you're reading to roll. As MDMA became harder to find (from Australia), I pretty much stopped taking it at festivals as my day/night was usually ruined by people constantly asking me "WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR MDMA MAN, HOOK ME UPPP". A shame really.

Serious bro?

If pacin yourself out is even an issue I would say that you are hoping to extend your roll for too long. You can only peak for about 90 min or so, and after that the intensity is GUARANTEED to simmer down.

I reccomendation that you smoke some good herbs, drink some ice cold refreshing crisp Bud Light® the wait until about 90 min before your FAVORITE act and drop then.

Problem solved. I aint got no time to waste on someones whos actually tryin to just munch beans all day. 8)
 
That's the thing I don't want to look like a complete idiot mid day constantly having to dance and then by the evening everyone's on it and you're on a major comdown lol. Fuck it I will resist until the evening, anyway in the evening the police and security won't be able to see my huge pupils :p
 
I usually explore area a bit, have a beer or 2 and when I feel like it start with M and when I felt I've had enough I usually drop like 25mg 2C-B which I prefer in the nighttime anyway ^^
 
Considering it will be a long night with some of my favourite DJ's I don't want to fuck myself up to much and take too much either to get the speedy effects so in terms of dosing...100mg-120mg to start with then 40mg-60mg every hour? I prefer to be able to see what I'm doing and feel good rather than having to constantly move and see hallucinations everywhere etc
 
Due to sniffer Dogs in my city and an average 30-40 arrests per festival, I either pop before i enter the venue or don't go at all :( .... damn the war on drugs, oh for the good old days!!

Popping one before going in? You'll be on a comedown for most of the festival!
 
Yeah its a problem, usually means leaving early.. or switching over to booze. The 'comedown' doesn't really happen straight away, more that you just go back to baseline, so its not necessarily unpleasant.
 
I suppose it depends how far you're willing to go with it really, I was reading an article on strip searches etc and they're not allowed to do cavity searches that includes touching your body so most people ballbag it or if you're really that worried, put it in a condom and stick it up your ass...unless you have a lady friend who's nice enough to put it up her flower lol
 
3 pills 10 joints you can never smoke to much and anyways it keeps you high and prevents you from taking 10 pills which imo is dangerous at a festival . you dont need to take to many pills in the event just being there is a high so all you need to do is relax and enjoy the show they have prepared for you
