I'm almost certain alot of people get this, but I want to see how bad some people get it as I seem to have it much worse than my buddies. When I started rolling I would literally pray I made it alive for the weekend so I could experience it again. Then days before I'd get less sleep and by the last night rarely any sleep. The day of any food I'd eat would literally come out 2 mins after ingestion. Now since these have gone and it's mostly the sleep problem but one more which I can't stand the most. I usually have a set time i drop at. 2 mondays ago I was going out to the club and we plannedon dropping at 930. It seemed though we weren't going to get there till 11 and we planned on getting there around 1015. So as 915 comes I starting taking extremely deep breathes and my heart rate is too high to be comfortable. So i have a smoke and I still can't chill out as I'm pacing back and forth and barely talking to my buddy with one word answers. So he tells me to just pop early, I do and it inmmediately goes away. The last 3 or 4 times that's all that happens or I get jittery and won't really talk but the minute I drop the feeling goes away. Guess it's just excitement mixed with anxious and nervous feelings. Just want to see how bad any of you guys have it.

Anxiety before you drop

I don't get like that but I get anxious a couple hours before I drop usually get an upset stomach and wana puke but can't and then I drop finally and I'm back to myself. Oh but I usually have to take a dump right before I drop from nerves lol

You are not alone; we get it really, really bad.
what's strange is even though we have lot's of experience (17 drops over 3 1/2 years) the anxiety gets worse with time, not better. It starts to affect my sleep the week leading up to it and we both end up with stomach problems before we drop!
I'm a retired psychologist by trade so I know about self-relaxation techniques and all, but nothing helps.
We are going to do opiates before we drop next time as a way of calming down and getting into a good state of mind.

avcpi - take a low dose, as it may mute the effects of your MDMA.
But yes, I get the exact same thing, and as avcpi has stated, it has only gotten worse over time. It frustrates me to no end, I lose sleep for many days before, get diarrhoea, vomit...the works. My anxiety doesn't go away after I drop, it stays for the come up, and disappears once I peak.
I've tried a lot to stop this with no luck. It's just something that I've learned to accept now, and I just try to chill out as best I can. It's certainly not uncommon, but when it gets severe it can be very inconvenient.

No I used to but once I stopped smoking weed the anxiety went away. Last time I rolled took a 4 month break but theres a rave tonight so I'm going again 17 days later not too bad I've done worse. I geuss our bodies don't want us taking any drug, honestly I think I just get so excited to take it waiting for it just makes me a loonatic haha

Exactly the same happens to me, only weed and deep meditation can turn off that anxious feelings of being high, it is our body trying to tell us something for sure, perhaps we should try to understand what is the real meaning of those drug-addict feelings??

All the trip reports I've read don't say that the effects of opiates mute those of MDMA, most reported a great synergy (even one that injected morphine! we will be taking about 30mg hydrocodone). The one's that said the roll was lessened were referring to the speedy/energetic aspect of the roll, which is fine by us since we roll at home and are not out dancing in a club...
no, I don't have anxiety normally.
We wait 3 months between rolls so it isn't that my body hasn't recovered yet.

If you have a strict waiting rule of 3 months could that be causing you anxiety as you build up each isolated occasion mentally? Of course, giving yourself time between occasions is important, but if it's too strict and regimented, especially with this set-in-stone dropping time you've described, it could lead to great anxiety in anticipation and when any slight deviations from the plan occur. I suffer from anxiety, but not to the level you describe. I'm sensible about how often I take MDMA, but I'm not so strict that the timing and circumstances of it become an obsessive compulsion, as I'm prone to such behaviour.

It's not 3 months on the dot. We roll an average of 4 times a year sometimes a little less or a little more than 3 months. But we do usually have a target date, but can't really get around that because it depends on when vacations hit, so that there is recovery time before going back to work...

I think it's just you. I just came off a night of rolling. I slept from 10am till 8pm. Woke up with an awesome afterglow. Then i took some vitamins, ate well. Then around 4am, slept again for another 10 hours. The third night i felt kinda tired. So i took a power nap for another 4 hours. Today i feel amazing, No side effects. And i dropped about 2 tabs of 180mg MDMA. Can't wait for next month.

Of course it's me! lol But it's uncomfortable nevertheless and I'm trying different ways to deal with it!
I think some of this might be related to the user not being quite sure of what they're taking.

i go in unplanned myself, i can get md if i want at any rave, but i get to the venue with a view of maybe i will, maybe not, so the angst leading up is never an issue, sometimes i indulge, but not always, and it only takes the right or wrong track to be mixed in at the exact time im discussing availabilty to make me, as they say, no or go, and as for the drop and waiting for the come up side, thats a killer for me, so what i do is wrap up 3 or 4 cigarette papers, i do this 2 or 3 times, and then make one md containing bomb which is wrapped in just one paper, and ill go an hour while swallowing these, and so i never get the anxiety or placebo affect, simply because i dont know which one is the real bomb, really works wonders for me

not in our case; all our stuff is from the same batch and has been lab-tested...

Oh okay, perhaps it is just me then. I've twice combined opiates and MDMA, and I felt that both drugs were much better off on their own. I think the combination took away the best aspects of both drugs, but hopefully you have a better experience.

sorry to hear that! I hope it's not the case with us. could be the type and dose and time of ingestion could have something to do with it too--lot's of different variables involved.
in any event it's good that all of us are cured thanks to the awesome advice from freehugs!
