7 years since MDMA

[salad1982]

It’s been 7 years since I last did MDMA.
I used to do it roughly once every other month for 3 or 4 years before then.

I’m going to a festival this weekend and intend to try it again.

Will the magic be like the first time I tried it as I have left it so long?

What sort of dose should I start with?
When I used to do it I was young and naive and would do whatever was infront of me whether it was 50mg or 200+ but definitely don’t won’t to go back to the bad nights I had when I was younger.

I’ll be with a good group of people who know what to look out for, just want to make sure I’m going to have a good time!

Thank you in advance.

I took a thirteen year break from all empathogens. If it's mdma no than 120 mgs total dose period.

The magic definitely returned for me. The reason I stopped was because the magic was basically gone from abuse. Even after taking three to five months off and trying again, it briefly came back, during the roll, but was short lived, and the rest of the roll the mdmamazing feeling wasn't there, that was 2001.

Only thing I could get at the time, 2015, was 5 mapb , and did 110 mgs , which cause serotonin syndrome for over a week afterwards.

I worked for a supplement company at the time and for a full year took mucuna pruiens , 99%, which caused serotonin to overflow causing seroton syndrome. If taking an empathogens cease l dopa use before. Use good judgement, intelligence. Brain zaps, hyper , shaking, crying that week , super emotional. Threw three grams of 5 mapbs down the toilet, which probably was a bad idea, but was dreaming that I got into the 5mapbs, and wasn't sure if it was real, or if a dream. Along with the brain zaps waking me up while ng it was not fun.

I've seen both stories; the magic returned, and the magic did not. I think there must be a lot of individual variability here.

it depends on a lot of factors, particularly the medications or drugs you've used since then and for how long

drugs that impact NE or serotonin can prevent the brain from reaching baseline as quickly or at all depending on dose and length of use

Bring test reagents, then volumetrically liquid dose the purchased crystal if you won't have a scale on hand. I'd always advise crystal > pressies, both for the sake of clean reagent testing and also for accurate dosing. It might be a good idea to keep a tripkiller or two on hand in case you feel the need (antipsychotic or benzo preferably), but I doubt you'd have much of a need for it.

Be safe and have fun!

That's an absurd dose you took, 110mg of 5-MAPB is maybe 3 times what I'd advise someone take at one point, usually 30-40mg first, then a single possible redose is solid for most, but I've personally only ever used 6-APB as far as benzofurans go. Just wanted to mention that Mucuna pruriens was something I once received a large amount of from an ayahuasca vendor who would send me "test products" before listing them for sale, to get reviews on usefulness, safety, dosing, consistency, etc.

First thing I did was put a pinch in a bowl and smoke it with a blowtorch, and boy was that unwise. It's how I treated harmaline and Baniesteriopsis caapi at the time, and I had what I can only describe as a combination between a stimulant bellringer and a DMT breakthrough. Shit felt devious in inarticulable ways. I then proceeded to test it in tea and gel caps, and figured out why people use it in the first place, but it was a horrible mix with my constant uses of ayahuasca, acid, and mushrooms, so I dropped it quick. Later on when I was just more into PCP, 2C-B, etc. I acquired some in Canada and brought it back to the US (uncontrolled in both afaik) and it was so similar to the first batch I tested years before, that I was kind of shocked at the consistency of the plant. Some things, Banisteriopsis caapi, Argyreia nervosa, Alicia anisopetala, coca tea, Salvia divinorum, all vary so goddamn much batch to batch, but M. pruriens never really did and I'm not sure how. Yohimbine-containing bark and ephedra tea also exhibited low amounts of variation.

Follow @Esperighanto advice.

If all goes well with testing. I say go for it, eat 100mg and boost as needed.

Yeah, it's probably been 23 years since for me. I got involved in the Baltimore/DC rave/club scene in 1993, became a dj playing parties and clubs like Buzz and Fever. There was literally no worries about what we were given. The worst thing tha that would happen is it was too weak, or wouldn't last long. Molly in powder form- VERY rare! I had it once and it was so perfectly euphoric and clean.

My wife and I have talked about renting a nice cabin and sit next to a crackling fire with music and experience that again. We don't go to parties or clubs, we have a kid, and we'd probably feel a little weird, so being in a chill safe zone sounds nice.

I tested it on five regeants, merke, marquis, simons a and b, and another one. Back then and on another chem forum people were dosing 100-200 mgs. In the 5 mapb threads I was one of the guys that had the worst negative effects. I threw three grams of the stuff out, which I regret, I think

After this I got another batch started at 50 mgs, then 60, then 7. never went higher than 75 mgs which I would say was on par with 120 mgs mdma, maybe even more. I would never go above 70-75 mgs 5 mapbs b if I ever did it again. That batch is gone. took about 10 years to do a gram, and this was sharing with a soulmate a lot of the time

Yeah these herbs can interact

Im a good 5 yrs out myself as I just dont know ppl anymore and live in the stix.

10 yrs on a gram -- I commend you for that. Blew through 20 of methylone faster than I care to discuss!

I shared it I'd guess seventy or eighty percent of the time. With the new research out in mdma, and all empathogens , and from experience I just can not take it with anyone , bc if it's drama and they have friends with benefits, sleep around I've gotten too emotional. I've really got to trust someone to do this with . Remember it amplifies positive and negative emotions so if you're in a bad situation ship it can absolutely cause severe depression that felt like it wouldn't end

Any relationship romantic needs to take a lot of time to get to know the person well enough where your at a certain peace

Probably if it's a one time thing empathogens really arnt a good idea. Weed , cool. Not a fan of alcohol

Something like an escaline not so much ime
