Alcohol on the comedown - was this a fluke?

Just wondering if anyone else has tried drinking alcohol on the come down and what their experience with it was.

For New Years I was at a house party and when I started to feel my come down it was making me really grumpy. Two of my friends and I decided to have a shot... which somehow led to 5 or 6 and a beer because I didn't "feel" it at all. Then suddenly I was drunk. Like as drunk as I've ever felt but no where near sick (like usual) and I was having a blast. Of course I continued to drink water. I was even able to get to sleep fast and slept like a rock. The next morning I felt off, like a hangover without the sickness or headaches, but it was overall a good kind of hang over.

My two friends that drank with me had a similar pleasant experience and now we're considering making drinking on the comedown a reoccurence, but I've heard before that alcohol and MDMA is just a dangerous combo. Anyone else have any experience with this? Did we all just luck out this time with not getting sick or feeling like shit?
 
I always drink when I'm coming down, it helps a lot and doesn't make the Ecstasy hangover as bad (I HATE being cracked out :s)
 
I'm surprised that drinking alcohol would actually make the MDMA hangover better. I would think it could only make things worse and make dehydration more likely. An alcohol hangover is worse than anything MDMA can ever do to me :)

I have not tried drinking on the comedown, only benzos, but I will sometimes have 1-2 drinks beforehand.
 
When I've drank after the MDMA wears off (and I also I mean with at least a little bit of sleep in between) it's been absolutely great- I imagine in the strict sense of harm reduction, the best thing the day after rolling is to rest, eat healthy and try to sleep without the help of drugs- but I'm rarely that good. ;) I find the best thing to take the edge off afterwards is to avoid anything that would give you anxiety such as stimulants.
 
I like to drink before, during, and on the comedown of MDMA - it makes the entire experience better. Drinking before decreases the anxiety I get, and once you start coming up you feel more pleasant. Added to that, if you insufflate your MDMA, a shot completely removes the semi-disgusting drip. Again, drinking during the MDMA experience just enhances it. Drinking on the comedown helps me sleep.

The reason you didn't "feel it" as much is probably because MDMA over-powers a lot of drugs, like alcohol and weed. I still feel it, but not nearly as much as I would if I was just drinking or smoking by themselves.

The biggest dangers when mixing MDMA and Alcohol is liver damage (over-taxing your liver) and dehydration.
 
Yeah i love a few good stiff drinks on the come down, a few double JD and Cokes or a few tripples and a few joints and im straight off to sleep!

That's what I figured. I felt sober, just the come down effects. And I kept drinking, thinking lots of time had passed since my last shot, when it was only a few minutes (time warp lol.) Then, when the MDMA really wore off, I was suddenly very very drunk. Ha!

Good to know that's how it works for others. I'll remember next time to limit myself to only like 4 shots (what I know gets me drunk without over doing it.) I wish weed worked for me like it works for others to ease them out of their roll, but it only makes me super anxious and hallucinations occur waaaay to easily for me.
 
I always have a drink on the comedown also - not stupid amounts as Im looking to continue the fun/take the edge off not overpower it and be drunk.

Remember that drinking and MDMA can cause really bad dehydration = bad hangover so try and get some water down you at some point.
 
to deal with the come down( wich is never that bad) i like ketamine in small bumps brings you down beatifully after a nice floaty sensation. If no special k then a nice spliff, if neither ill then have a few beers.
 
the worst imo is beer, it takes too long to get drunk. I would stick to liquor 40%
 
aw man, i think its a great idea.

while rolling, i normally get some nice fruity "girly" drinks and drink em up the whole time.

its RIDICULOUS if you do it right...say, make a nice, good tasting mixed drink right.

every GULP will make you roll harder.

works for me anyway.
 
I usually drink before during and after ecstacy use just cause its awesome. I dont know about anyone else but when I'm rolling I can drink twice as much as I normally do and feel a lot better all around

lmao. i love you. i read your post in an american accent and spat milk all over my keyboard
 
Wow, I've never thought to do any of this before! We might have a glass or two of wine on the come-up because my partner gets anxious, but I've never thought to continue it, and especially never thought to drink on the comedown. I'm going to try that next time we roll AND hazeforhorses, your idea sounds amazing and I'm also going to try that :D How fucking delicious would a pina colada or daiquiri or lychee martini be rolling!
 
When I was in my abuse phase, we would drink excessively during the come down. Looking back, the logic was that it would help us fall asleep, but it really didn't. I'm sure it added to feeling really shitty the next few days too. Also, if you drink too much, you get this really weird brand of drunk, like you're completely brain dead.

So yeah, a few beers afterwards, not so bad but be careful not to drink too much. Also, IMO xanax is way better for the comedown. It will put you right to sleep.
 
im sure a couple beers should be harmless, but i reckon it's good to just let your body rest and recover

although alcohol tastes like poison to me nowadays >.<
 
I've found that having alcohol on the comedown is a pleasant way to wind down the night, but I'm sure its putting much more of a strain on your system. I wouldn't recommend it, except maybe a drink or two at the most.
