ive been off E for 6 weeks,
and like when i was doing E, i started ended up getting anxiety, social anxiety, espeically when i am stoned, the thought of weed makes me feel anxious now, i just wanna know, the anxiety ever goes away?
Well first off, yes it will most likely stop, unless you redicously abused ecstasy, or binged heavily for even a short amount of time but constantly. From what you've said though, it's not the worst case of ecstasy abuse I've seen, so you should be okay. You want to do something that will keep you mind off of the anxiety, that's what I did when I quit coke and started having anxiety problems. Some benzo's would be good if you can control your usage and not start another addiction. I noticed valiums helped me the most, as I was prescribed to them, and still am, but they are only a quick fix, and shouldn't be used for an extended period of time. Eating healthy, working out, focasing on a new hobby with free time, working, and talking to close friends/family about your issues can help a lot. Good luck.

In a way its nice to know someone's going through the same thing, in a way it's scary...
I haven't touched ecstasy for 2 1/2 months (also gave up weed at about the same time) and my anxiety has barely improved at all. I constantly get nasty rushes up and down my spine, i shake quite a lot and my nerves are terrible. I also feel as though I cannot control my thoughts and feelings.
I loved doing ecstasy and only quit because it seemed to be causing the above symptoms. It only ever happened once when I was on the drug, but during the weeks afterwards it would be pretty bad. Then when it became constant I thought, it's time to stop.
I give you credit, you said you loved doing ecstasy, but noticed the bad side effects were too great, and quit. That's very responsible, and a lot of people are stupid and just keep taking more and more.
I would read what I said to the original poster, and follow the advice I gave him. It sounds like you both were getting a lot of tablets with meth in them, which seems to increase the bad side effects, and keep them around a bit longer. I wanted to add as well, taking some vitamins will help a lot as well, and generally make you feel a bit healthier, as in the act of taking them will give you that mindset as well. Any multi-vitamin will work well, preferably one that contains vitamin B-12, along with the rest of the essentials. Good luck to you as well.
