Did you your self test the pills and were they all the same?
The head aches may possibly be from dehydration, lack of nutrients, or lack of sleep. I'd try cutting back smoking if you do, seeing as this is a major cause of dehydration. You can still use what ever you are smoking just try not to smoke it. i.e. eat edibles or chew some nicotine gum. Also alcohol dehydrates you, so be aware of how much dehydrating activities take part in!
I have expierenced everything you have mentioned. I went on a 3 week binge and paid the price. After the 2-3rd day I stopped I expierenced the crash.
Your headaches and cold sweats will get better in the coming weeks. You need to take anti oxidents and drink plenty of water to help clean all the neurotoxicity. Your serotonin level is low and your body is having trouble managing your temperature, sleep and appatite.
Taking 100-200 mg during the evening will help restore your serotonin but do not take for more than 5days or your body will start depending on it. Green tea extract is a excellent antioxident and helps with the transport of 5htp through the blood brain barrier (correct me if I'm wrong) I take it with the 5htp.
I believe thoes dreams and brain shocks(brain zaps) your having are realated. The zaps are a form of withdrawls, its a chemical imbalance caused by your brain going in overdrive to produce chemicals you drained during your binge. I found that when I would be going to sleep that's when I would expierence the zaps at its worst and get the dreams. Mines lasted for about a week (each person is different some will have it longer) and let me say thoes were the most vivid, and scariest dreams I ever had. Some nights I thought it was so real ill ask my room mates if they heard me screaming there names for help. And thoes zaps can be painful, I found smoking weed increased the zaps, so I don't reccomend smoking until the zaps are gone.
You will feel like your getting worse befor you feel better imo. My emotions drove me crazy, I cried for the first three days and gave up on everything for the moment. After about 6-7days I began to start to feel better and have a positive outlook on life. It took a month or so for my emotional rollercoaster ride too end. I learned a new repect for MDMA and understood its not something to abuse or you pay the price.
My advice to you is be strong and know that each day you will feel better. Your body and brain have taken a toll from the abuse and need all your help to get better. Eat healty and drink plenty of water, get your vitamins and antioxidents, and exercise. Keep your self busy esp if your feeling down or depressed.
The most IMPORTANT thing is to take a nice long break! No less than two months. 6months sounds better. I wish you the best of luck and hope your able to get through this.
This is a wonderfull post, much thanks to happyland.
If it was pure MDMA then just this should be fine if you follow what happyland says. You should arive in happy land (having controlable emotions/not being a zombie) some where between 3-9 months after your last use.
It's gonna suck and your gonna want to roll again every time you hear bass but just remember that every time you roll it resets the time untill your fully ballanced again and adds a bit more time. Surround your self with positive reinforcement and maybe avoid the party scene, other drugs and triggers that may cause a relapse.
However working out, sex in particular, is a wonderfull(and legal) way to get a rejuvinating burst of seratonin(?). Just know that compared to the full-body-gasm of 10 pills or X n sex, an plain old orgasm kind of sucks and it's just going to take a while to get used to that.
Unfortunantly, from the symptoms you seem to be experiencing, you might not have been doing pure MDMA. If this is true you might need a bit more to help get you back on your feet. Any other chemicals you might have ingested durring this binge, or adulterants the pills might have been pressed with could be a possible explination for this.
i've been getting a lot of headaches and cold sweats after i wake up. sometimes through out the day i feel very tired to the point i want to sleep. i always eat food like it'll never stop. i read online that lack of serotonin can be solved by taking 5htp, i've taken 50 or 100mg 5htp with a meal at dinner time. what happens is i have crazy lucid dreams one after another. the recycle begins again with headache and cold sweats. i don't know what to do anymore. i've STOPPED taking mdma for two days now and the headache seem to get worse. PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU'VE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING AFTER BINGE!
The headache, cold sweats, and narcoleptic-like day tiredness sound eirely reminiscent of a mephedrone binge/come down. I'm not saying that what you did wasn't MDMA, I am just questioning the content of said pills and questioning if you have questioned the contents your self. Just because your mate told you they were pure doesn't count.
So to this I have a few questions that may rule this and other possible variables out.
Were you taking the same pills the whole time?
Were they tested?
What ROA did you use(how did you consume them)?
How long did it take to start to feel them?
When was the peak, how long was it, and was it a plateau or steady up then down?
& How long has your binge lasted?
The more information you give the better advice we can give. I wish you luck on your recovery.
